WATCH: Offset and French Rapper Gazo Face Off in Heated Confrontation Over Video Shoot Dispute in Paris
3 min read
An altercation erupted between Offset and French rapper Gazo on Wednesday night, escalating into a street brawl outside Paris’ Hôtel du Collectionneur. A video of the incident, obtained by The Shade Room and TMZ, shows Offset and his entourage clashing with members of Gazo’s crew after an argument that quickly turned physical.
The conflict reportedly stemmed from a dispute over payment. According to sources close to the situation, Gazo’s team had paid Offset $150,000 for a video shoot, but later accused him of failing to deliver on their expectations. When Gazo’s team demanded a reimbursement, Offset allegedly refused, sparking the confrontation.
In the video, Offset is seen standing next to a Sprinter van as tempers flare between the two crews. Security personnel attempt to intervene, but tension escalates when Offset is pushed against a vehicle. As the scene becomes increasingly chaotic, Offset can be heard shouting, “I’ll fire your ass up!” His security guard holds him back, but he continues trying to break free as members of both crews exchange heated words and punches.
The brawl intensifies, with both sides throwing punches and grappling. At one point, a member of Gazo’s entourage lands a swift kick to the head of one of Offset’s crew members, enraging Offset further. Despite efforts by his security to restrain him, Offset manages to break free momentarily and retaliate by kicking one of his opponents with a designer boot. Amid the chaos, a woman associated with Offset’s group is also shoved to the ground as she tries to fend off attackers.
Witnesses report that the scuffle was intense, with neither side backing down. Offset’s team reportedly argued amongst themselves in the aftermath as they tried to regroup. While it’s unclear who “won” the fight, the video reveals that Offset’s team was left scattered and disorganized when local police arrived on the scene. However, no arrests were made, and authorities reportedly calmed the situation.
At one point, Offset appears determined to get back into the fray, yelling, “Let me go! He swinging on my people!” But security quickly hustles him toward a nearby store for safety, where he and his team find temporary refuge as the street confrontation continues outside. Eventually, the store staff allow Offset and his entourage to enter, closing the door behind them to prevent further escalation.
Despite the altercation, there seems to be no lasting animosity between Offset and Gazo. On Thursday morning, Gazo posted a photo with Offset on social media, hinting at their upcoming collaboration, “Wemby.” The picture, showing both artists together, suggests the two may have set aside their differences and moved on from the scuffle.
For now, Offset has not provided his side of the story, and his representatives have yet to respond to inquiries. However, the video serves as a stark reminder of how quickly tensions can flare in high-stakes, high-profile collaborations in the music industry. While this particular incident didn’t lead to arrests or serious injuries, it’s clear that Offset and Gazo’s crews have some unresolved tension. Whether this affects their collaboration remains to be seen, but for now, fans are left with a glimpse of the sometimes volatile dynamics behind the scenes in the world of hip-hop.
