Today, GRAMMY® Award-nominated, multi-platinum superstar Offset makes a strong summer return with “Bodies” featuring fellow Atlanta rap iconoclast J.I.D., out now on Motown Records. Produced by Vinylz and FNZ, the smooth track features an iconic sample: Drowning Pool’s 2001 hit, “Bodies.” Listen HERE. The new single also comes with a surreal yet dapper video creative directed by Offset himself, edited by Mikey Rare, and with styling by SheShe Pendleton. Watch HERE. (OUT LATER TODAY). “’Bodies’ is one of them ones I had to really take my time with. It’s about standing on who you are, coming out the mud, and being confident in the face of adversity. I’m always evolving, and I don’t fit in a box as an artist,” said Offset, “I’ve been cooking this up for a minute and I’m just getting started. J.I.D. is my guy and had the perfect energy to match ‘Bodies.’ Stay tuned because we going up.” “Bodies” brings high-level intensity weaving together a haunting choir over a fresh take on the known sample (“Let the bodies hit the floor”). Over propulsive drums and an ominous piano, Offsetshowcases his bold artistry while rapping about his destiny: “I got choices this shit look like crayons … I fold a million dollars in two pockets … Sleeping and dreaming, talking to the rocket, he told me, ‘Go up,’ I told him that I got him.” J.I.D., complements “Bodies” with his own strikingly dynamic verse. The “Bodies” video filmed in L.A. matches the song’s scope and tone, creating a rich visual that feels like a living painting. In style Offset leads a desert runway where suave models march down a red carpet in front of the candlelit choir. The grim reaper looms behind J.I.D., and Offset oversees cult-like devotees to receive his crown while seated on an elaborate throne. Offset’s latest follows his ice-cold Valentine’s Day drop “TEN.” He also made a triumphant return to Hot Ones where he discussed his mindset as a solo artist and the origins of his forays into acting — watch HERE. Before that, Offset closed 2024 with a pair of year-end gifts: his surprise Juice WRLD collab “Celebration” — from the legend’s final posthumous album The Party Never Ends— and his hypnotic solo single “Swing My Way.” The song came with a stunning music video directed by Kid Art co-starring supermodel Anok Yai .
