Offset & JID Join Drowning Pool for Blazing Live “Bodies”

Offset has drawn widespread attention with the release of his third studio album, KIARI. The project arrives with high expectations and a standout roster of collaborators, from John Legend and NBA YoungBoy to Gunna and JID. Their track “Bodies,” built around a Drowning Pool interpolation, highlights a synergy where Offset’s precise delivery meets JID’s lyrical sharpness.

Critical and fan reception has been overwhelmingly positive. KIARI is being hailed as one of Offset’s most accomplished solo efforts, bolstered by appearances from YFN Lucci and Key Glock. The energy carried over to The Tonight Show yesterday, where Offset and JID delivered a live performance of “Bodies” that drew immediate praise. One fan captured the moment succinctly: “It’s like this song was made for everybody on that stage.”

Offset has paired the album with striking visuals, releasing a music video for each track and amplifying the project’s impact beyond streaming platforms. A remix of “Bodies,” produced by BNYX, adds fresh urgency to the rollout, demonstrating his determination to remain central in both the hip-hop scene and the broader cultural conversation.

Artistic Success, Personal Strain

Yet his professional momentum unfolds against a backdrop of personal upheaval. Offset’s divorce from Cardi B, finalized last year just before the birth of their third child, continues to draw public attention and scrutiny.

On the Full Send Podcast, Offset addressed marriage and commitment with characteristic candor. “I’ve done it. Had three kids with it — It’s like a mission that’s been complete,” he said, acknowledging the toll and transformation involved. He went further, advising host Kyle Forgeard on the challenges marriage entails:

“Yeah, I’d tell you don’t get married unless you’re ready for a complete life transition,” he explained, offering insight that mirrors both the intensity of his personal life and the precision of his artistry.
