Thousands of fans, musicians and relatives of the shot American rapper Takeoff said goodbye to the singer during a funeral service in Atlanta, Georgia. “Today we honor Kirsnick Khari Ball,” the operator of the large event venue State Farm Arena wrote on Twitter Friday (local time). Musicians such as Drake, Justin Bieber, Chloe Bailey and Yolanda Adams paid tribute there with performances or speeches, US media reported.
Takeoff, 28, real name Kirsnick Khari Ball, was shot and killed in Houston, Texas, on Nov. 1. According to investigators, the deadly incident happened after a private party at a bowling alley. Shots were fired during an argument. The rapper was probably hit by accident. The investigations are underway. So far no one has been arrested.
Along with rappers Quavo, 31, and Offset, 30, Takeoff was part of the Grammy-nominated group Migos. The trio has had a lot of success in the US in recent years, after songs like “Versace”, “Bad and Boujee” and “MotorSport” became hits.
In honor of the deceased rapper, his family has set up a foundation that wants to use community projects to combat gun violence. (sda/dpa)
