It’s still very difficult to reconcile the fact that Takeoff is no longer walking among us in the physical. It is always a tragedy whenever any young person is taken from their loved ones abruptly but there is something particularly disheartening about this death. It just doesn’t feel real.
If we feel that way as fans, outsiders, and members of the culture, we can’t even begin to imagine the overwhelming pain that Kirsnick Khari Ball’s family and friends are feeling right now. Especially his brothers Quavo and Offset. Up to this point, we had heard from Quavo, Cardi B, and others who were close to Take but we understandably hadn’t heard from Offset aside from the comments he made at the funeral in Atlanta last week.
