AceShowbiz - Offset responded strongly after being referenced by fellow rapper Rylo Rodriguez on the Alabama artist's latest album.

On July 3, Rylo Rodriguez released his new project titled S.K.A.T.E., which includes a track called "Eliza (Bless Me Up)." Within this song, Rylo takes a jab at Offset by alluding to the rapper’s rumored gambling problems with the line referencing "Freebandz," the label associated with rapper Casino, and contrasting himself with Offset.

The mention clearly did not sit well with Offset, who quickly fired back on his Instagram Story. He posted a series of messages targeting Rylo Rodriguez, dismissing his sales potential and calling out his Alabama roots. Offset also threatened consequences for Rylo, suggesting he wouldn’t be welcome in Atlanta and accusing him of betraying his own community.

Among the posts, Offset tagged Rylo directly and used harsh language, making it clear he was upset by the perceived insult. Following his initial barrage, Offset shared a private voice message from Rylo where the Alabama rapper claimed his lyric was not intended as a diss. Despite this, Offset responded curtly, maintaining his stance.

Not to be outdone, Rylo Rodriguez replied publicly the next day, emphasizing that even if he sold only 10,000 copies of his album, that figure would surpass the sales of Offset’s last project. Rylo dismissed Offset’s relevance by calling him a figure of the past.

This exchange highlights the ongoing tension between the two rappers, fueled by Rylo Rodriguez’s provocative lyric and Offset’s swift rebuttal. Fans can listen to "Eliza (Bless Me Up)" to hear the line that sparked the feud and follow the back-and-forth as it unfolds on social media.

As this public spat continues, it remains to be seen whether the rappers will escalate the conflict or move past this dispute. For now, the focus stays on their music and the heated exchanges in the hip-hop community spotlight.
