Today, GRAMMY® Award-nominated, multi-platinum superstar Offset officially announces his third solo album, KIARI, out August 22 on Motown Records. KIARI will include multiple physical artwork variants. The multihyphenate artist broke the news today in Times Square where doppelgangers dressed in suits re-created one of the artwork variants. With his birth name as its title, the highly anticipated KIARI stands to be Offset’s most personal body of work yet and is set to ring in a new era of dominance for the Atlanta icon. Pre-order / Pre-save the album HERE. Offset also revealed the tracklist that will include collaborations with the likes of J.I.D., Gunna, YoungBoy Never Broke Again, John Legend, Ty Dolla $ign, Key Glock, YFN Lucci, and Teezo Touchdown.

Most recently, Offset debuted the second taste of KIARI, the high-class cut “Professional,” a bouncing post-trap anthem that finds our host asserting his status in the culture, on the streets, and behind closed doors. The song came with a luxe video filmed at the exclusive celebrity-filled New York eatery Lucien, HERE.

In June, Offset dropped KIARI’s scorching lead single “Bodies” featuring J.I.D., which debuted on the Billboard Hot 100, became the #1 added song at Urban Radio, and racked up universal praise from fans and critics — including The Source (“a bold summer return”), BET (“smash single”), UPROXX (“Offset and J.I.D. go hard”), HotNewHipHop (“urgent, reflective, and necessary”), and Complex, who ranked the Dreamville rapper’s verse as the sixth best of the year so far. Meanwhile, Vibe called the song — which samples Drowning Pool’s iconic 2001 hit, “Bodies” — an “earth-shattering lyrical clinic [where Offset] brought his hard-nosed, aggressive flow, which matches the 808s and drums, and fellow ATLien J.I.D. dropped one of his best guest verses ever. Set and JID do such a good job making this song their own.” Offset and J.I.D. sat down with Variety and Genius to breakdown the creation of “Bodies.”

Offset’s been making waves elsewhere too. He recently made a triumphant return to Hot Ones, where he discussed his mindset as a solo artist and the origins of his forays into acting. He also made headlines by sitting down for the revealing premiere episode of Complex’s “Interview with a Magician,” as well as for his show-stealing set at Milwaukee’s Summerfest late last month when he brought a fan onstage for an unforgettable performance of Migos hit “Walk It Talk It” — watch HERE.

Stay tuned for much more from Offset as we approach the long-awaited release of KIARI.
