Offset‘s third solo studio album – the August 22-released ‘Kiari‘ – may be a star-studded affair loaded with guests like Ty Dolla $ign, Gunna, NBA YoungBoy, and more, but an easy standout comes courtesy of the John Legend-assisted ‘Never Let Go.’

“I lost my brother, but I gained an angel / I remember all the times we had, forever I’m grateful / If I could get one more time to see you again / I would hold you tight and never let go, my friend,” Legend croons over a Fridayy-produced chorus.

A touching tribute to Offset’s late Migos group member Takeoff, the release of ‘Never’ follows previously released ‘Kiari’ tunes ‘Bodies’ and ‘Professional.’
