Offset to Perform Live Oct. 16 to Support Artists Impacted by COVID-19
Offset is getting ready to hit the stage, set for an October 16 performance in Atlanta to raise money for artists and creatives who are suffering in the COVID-19 pandemic.
Offset will partner with AXR + EXP for the performance, bringing in rising stars like Duke Deuce, YRN Murk, and YRN Mango, Billboard reports.
“I get to perform for my fans again with my artists, Duke Deuce, YRN Murk, and YRN Mango live, on stage on my platform,” Offset said.
This live show follows last month’s effort by Axis Replay for live performances to fans eager to take part.
“The AXR+EXP Concert Series will be the new standard for live and virtual performances,” said Axis Replay CEO, Allie Young in a statement last month. “Our company’s mission is to create experience-focused activations, and that has translated well into streamed productions. Being a part of the music, entertainment, gaming, and sports ecosystem, it made a lot of sense for us to leverage our experience and expertise to reconnect the industries that have been devastated by this pandemic.”
The performance will also be live-streamed. Tickets to be in the building that will be guided under CDC safety precautions can be purchased here.

Tiffany Haddish’s African Grocery Store Visit Sparks Debate, Is She a Trailblazer or Out of Touch?
Tiffany Haddish is at the center of controversy after a video of her visit to a grocery store in Zimbabwe went viral. In the clip, Haddish marvels at the store’s size and the availability of items like sugar cane and organic strawberries, which she seemed to find surprising.
The reaction from viewers has been mixed. Some applauded her for challenging stereotypes about Africa, while others mocked her for acting as if the continent lacked modern amenities. One user on X quipped, “Tiffany Haddish, the first woman to discover a grocery store in Africa,” while another expressed confusion over her reaction, questioning why she seemed surprised by the store’s offerings.
In response to the backlash, Haddish took to X to clarify her intentions. She emphasized that her goal was to “demystify” Africa and encourage more Black Americans to visit.
This incident follows another controversial trip earlier this year, when Haddish visited Israel amid ongoing conflicts, a move that drew criticism for its insensitivity. Despite the recent backlash, Haddish remains active, with her latest project being the memoir I Curse You With Joy, which has garnered positive reviews for its candidness.
In an era where public figures must tread carefully, it seems Haddish’s words continue to spark debate, whether she’s on a global adventure or sharing her personal experiences.

Robert Downey Jr. Unveils Doctor Doom, and Jonathan Majors’ Fallout Sparks Viral Frenzy!
At San Diego Comic-Con on July 27, Robert Downey Jr. stunned fans with his unexpected return to the Marvel Cinematic Universe, revealing himself as Doctor Doom in the highly anticipated “Avengers: Doomsday.” The excitement didn’t stop there, as Marvel Studios President Kevin Feige also teased a follow-up film, “Avengers: Secret Wars.”
The reveal set social media ablaze, with MCU fans ecstatic to see RDJ back in action. However, the celebration was tinged with controversy as Jonathan Majors—who was slated to play Kang in the now-controversial “Avengers: The Kang Dynasty”—has been trending on X. Majors’ recent conviction for assault and subsequent departure from Marvel has led fans to reflect on his past statements about wanting to share the screen with Downey.
In a 2023 interview with Lifehacker Australia, Majors expressed his admiration for RDJ, saying, “I would love to be across from him on screen… His portrayal of Iron Man is so fascinating.” As the dust settles on Downey’s big reveal, fans can’t help but wonder about Majors’ reaction and what could have been.
