Offset\u2019sSet It Off<\/em> project is slated to earn a lofty placement on next week\u2019s Billboard 200 album chart.<\/p>\n

According to Hits Daily Double<\/em><\/a>, Set It Off<\/em>is expected to debut within the Billboard 200\u2019s Top 10 with 55,000 to 65,000 equivalent sales in the first week.<\/p>\n

The album serves as Offset\u2019s sophomore solo LP and was initially supposed to drop last November, but was delayed due to the tragic passing of TakeOff.<\/p>\n

Set It Off<\/em> arrived on Friday (October 13) with features from Travis Scott, Don Toliver, Latto, Chloe Bailey, Future, Young Nudy and Offset\u2019s wifey Cardi B.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhy it took so long? A lot of things I lost my brother is the main reason. I was gonna drop last year. I had got out of a creative space,\u201d he admitted to The Breakfast Club<\/em><\/a> last week of the album\u2019s delay. \u201cI had to sit down for a minute and get with my momma and pray and get myself together.<\/p>\n

\u201cAlso I wanted to perfect the craft. I wanted to make sure I dropped and it counted. Especially coming out the group, I wanted to make sure everything was aligned.\u201d<\/p>\n

TakeOff (real name Kirshnik Khari Ball) was\u00a0shot and killed outside of a Houston bowling alley in November 2022, just weeks after the release of his collaborative album with\u00a0Quavo,\u00a0Only Built For Infinity Links.<\/em><\/p>\n

Authorities say the 28-year-old rapp<\/a>er was an \u201cinnocent bystander\u201d to a dice game<\/a> involving Quavo and other men that escalated into an argument and, tragically, a shootout.\u00a0An autopsy revealed that TakeOff was fatally wounded in the head and torso.<\/p>\n

Offset has been open about the emotional toll that TakeOff\u2019s death has had on him, most recently\u00a0admitting that there isn\u2019t a day that goes by where he doesn\u2019t break down over it.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m not healed, I\u2019m not good,\u201d he bravely said during an interview with Angela Yee in July. \u201cWe stars so people be thinking it\u2019s just cool, but I\u2019m a real grown man. I cry every day about this shit. At some point, it fucks me up every day.\u201d<\/p>\n

Offset\u2019s solo debut, Father of 4<\/em>, was released in February 2019 and debuted at No. 4 with 89,000 total album-equivalent units.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
