Rumors about Offset’s alleged gambling habits continue to circulate, fueled by accusations from Lil Tjay and Ebro.
As rumors about his alleged gambling habit continue to circulate in hip-hop circles, Offset is once again the subject of whispers, onlookers, and casino talk. Honestly, this feels less like random gossip and more like one of those stories that never goes away.
Let’s be clear from the jump. These are accusations and conversations that took place in public spaces, not absolute facts. But the debate raged on and people began to connect the dots.
The first spark seemed to come again in early 2025, when Lil Tjay publicly claimed that Offset was in financial trouble. According to Tjay, he saw the former Migos member allegedly asking people for money inside the casino to continue gambling. Tjay also claimed that Offset owed him $10,000. Offset reportedly considered the money “lunch money” and denied bankruptcy. The moment became social media theater. If it’s lunch money, why not just pay it?
This year, academics have joined the debate, suggesting that Offset may have had a serious gambling problem. Others have raised the idea that rehabilitation may be needed. Recently, superstar athlete Ebro said Offset owed him five stacks. Now, we have a pattern. But there’s more.
Another rumor states that Offset allegedly didn’t sleep for nearly 24 hours during the gambling session and was even found asleep at a nearby gaming table containing approximately $250,000. Additionally, he got into an altercation with a man for not taking photos. No one has ever produced a hard proof, but a soft proof is a proof.
That’s what complicates this rumor. Offset is still moving like a star, minus the margin paid. Security is expensive. He just goes to the casino a lot. This is where the shooting may show that big changes are needed.
There are some bigger conversations that no one wants to have. Gambling and hip-hop have always had a strange relationship. Remember Takeoff was killed during a gambling outing. The game of dice is gambling.
Where is Cardi B in all this? She is always the voice of reason. most.
But…we know…Offset usually moves on its own time.
