Migos rapper Offset has stepped forward to speak out following his publicized incarceration on criminal charges last month.

Offset revealed he has an upcoming bond hearing and hopes to be released during a jail phone interview this week.

“Yeah man, I’m good, what’s happening,” Offset said in a phone interview. “Eh man, I don’t know what these folks [are saying]. They’re talking about I said eff the judge, man. I never said nothing like that, man. I’m getting out in like three weeks. I got another bond hearing. They denied my bond because I caught them extra charges. I can’t really talk too much about the case but yeah these folks out here are racist, man. They’re trying to bash my name, trying to make my image look bad.” (“Durtty Boyz”)

Recent reports claimed Offset let loose some emotions during a recent bond hearing.

Reports last month claimed Offset had to find out if a judge would grant him freedom.

It looks Migos rappers Quavo and Takeoff are home free, except Offset. The Bulloch County Sheriff’s Office tells XXL that Offset’s bond was deinied by the D.A. office and he’s going to have a hearing to see if the judge grants him a bond. The court date is still unknown. (XXL Mag)

According to a post made on their Twitter account last month, Migos were just waiting for a bond to be set.

According to reports, a stage manager at Georgia Southern University’s Spring Bling concert had their show abruptly stopped when police arrived on April 18.

We’re told all 3 members of Migos left the stage — along with a posse that was at least 15 deep — and they were all questioned by cops. The Bulloch County Sheriff’s department made multiple arrests, and the suspects are currently being processed at the jail. Unclear what they’re accused of, and we also don’t know if any of the Migos guys got busted. (TMZ)
