Grammy-nominated rapper Offset has officially announced the title and release date for his highly anticipated third solo album, KIARI. Set to drop on August 22nd, 2025, the project is a deeply personal one, bearing the rapper’s birth name, Kiari Kendrell Cephus. This choice of title signals a new level of introspection and authenticity, inviting listeners to connect with the artist behind the persona.
The album marks Offset’s first full-length project since 2023’s Set It Off and arrives after a year of experimental singles and high-profile collaborations. It will feature 18 tracks, offering a compelling mix of solo records and major guest appearances.
Offset has enlisted a dynamic roster of collaborators for KIARI, including some of the biggest names in music. The album will feature contributions from J.I.D., Gunna, YoungBoy Never Broke Again, John Legend, Ty Dolla $ign, Key Glock, YFN Lucci, and Teezo Touchdown. The project’s lead single, the scorching “Bodies,” featuring J.I.D., has already made a significant impact, debuting on the Billboard Hot 100 and becoming the No. 1 added song at urban radio. The tracklist also includes the recently released single “Professional,” a confident cut with a jazzy beat.
The album’s title and its lead singles hint at a project that balances Offset’s signature, hard-hitting trap sound with a more vulnerable and reflective side.
