Takeoff died early Tuesday morning after a fatal shooting in Houston, Texas. He was 28. His uncle and fellow Migos member, Quavo, was there at the time of the shooting. 

Neither Quavo nor Offset have released any statements publicly in the wake of Takeoff's death.

Senseless violence and a stray bullet has taken another life from this world and we are devastated."
