Offset has delivered a Halloween treat to fans, releasing his surprise new solo album Haunted by Fame.

Released via UMG Recordings, Haunted by Fame features guest appearances from NBA Youngboy, NoCap, and Lil Dump. Offset also dropped a horror-themed music video for lead track “Ya Digg,” directed by HousePartii, pairing eerie visuals with haunted-house production.


The Migos rapper teased the project just hours before release, writing cryptic messages on social media and sharing a masked teaser clip that hinted at the darker sonic palette.

The 11-track project arrives just two months after his introspective third solo effort Kiari, continuing a prolific run for the Atlanta rapper. While Kiari leaned introspective, Haunted by Fame sees Offset trading raw confessionals for paranoia-laced production, distorted hooks, and sparse 808s.

Offset’s Billboard chart history includes more than 30 entries on the Hot 100 as a solo artist, though he has yet to score a No. 1 hit on the chart.

Offset has logged over 30 solo entries on the Billboard Hot 100, though he’s yet to claim a solo No. 1. His highest-charting solo cut, “Ric Flair Drip,” reached No. 13, while featured spots on hits like Tyga’s “Taste” (No. 8) and Kodak Black’s “Zeze” (No. 2) helped boost his profile.

His debut album Father of 4 opened at No. 4 on the Billboard 200 in 2019 with 89,000 units, followed by Set It Off in 2023, which debuted at No. 5 with 70,000 units and hit No. 2 on the Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart. Offset’s collaborative run—spanning Cardi B, Travis Scott, 21 Savage, and more—continues to keep him in rotation. And with Migos, he hit No. 1 on the Hot 100 in 2017 with “Bad and Boujee” featuring Lil Uzi Vert.

Haunted by Fame marks Offset’s fourth solo project and second album of 2025.
