The 28-year-old Takeoff, real name Kirsnick Khari Ball, was shot dead on November 1 in Houston, Texas. According to investigators, the fatal incident happened after a private party at a bowling alley. Shots were fired during an argument. The rapper was probably hit by accident.

Along with rappers Quavo, 31, and Offset, 30, Takeoff was part of the Grammy-nominated group Migos. The trio has enjoyed great success in the United States in recent years, after songs like “Versace”, “Bad and Boujee” and “MotorSport” became hits.
In honor of the killed rapper, his family has set up a foundation that aims to use community projects to combat gun violence.
