Just now, Takeoff’s Atlanta funeral ceremony came to a conclusion, and his farewell was highlighted by a number of moving moments, including statements from his Migos family and Drake.
Friday’s memorial ceremony began just after noon and continued for many hours at State Farm Arena, which was jam-packed with sorrowful fans and famous people who knew and loved Takeoff.
During the event, Justin Bieber, Chloe Bailey, and Yolanda Adams all gave performances, while members of Takeoff’s family, including his mother, brother, and sister, spoke to the audience.
Drake, a close friend of Migos, gushed about how much fun the group had while on tour. He likened them to the renowned Rat Pack, which included Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin, Sammy Davis Jr., Joey Bishop, and Peter Lawford and whom he had grown up watching on television.
Of course, Offset and Quavo spoke about Takeoff as family as well as a fellow member of their group. The crowd was incontestably moved to tears by their addresses, particularly Offset’s.
The event’s free tickets were all quickly taken, and attendees were prohibited from using their phones throughout the service by stewards who kept them in pouches.
The Atlanta Hawks’ home arena lighted up a big banner that said, “Celebrating the life of Takeoff,” in front.
Cardi B and Offset, as we previously reported, were seen Thursday night in Atlanta wearing all-black ensembles while mingling with close pals.
Takeoff was shot and died in Houston as a result of an argument over a dice game, as first reported by TMZ. Although police have named a few persons of interest, no one has been arrested as of yet.
