Rapper Offset was pictured kicking an attacker during a street fight Paris on Wednesday evening.

The 32-year-old music artist was in the French capital after performing for a fee at Luks Kebab, reportedly pocketing £10,000 for a five-minute visit.

Later, as he left a hotel with a group of people where he had reportedly spent time with French rapper Gazo, Offset was filmed getting into a car before getting out when he was aggressively approached.

Among a group of men, Offset – real name Kiari Kendrell Cephus – was thrown against the car, with the enraged rapper trying to break free and take revenge before his security intervened.

The brawl then got bigger once Offset, Cardi B’s estranged husbandstepped out into the street, where he reportedly began fighting with someone else after trying to break free from his own security guard who was firmly restraining him.

One photo also shows him aiming a kick at the head of one of his attackers as he broke free from security, as members of his entourage became involved in the melee and shouts and horns sounded.

His post came Thursday afternoon, hours after the struggle outside the hotel.
