		</div><p>Fans of the murdered rapper Takeoff, a member of the hip-hop trio Migos shot and killed a week ago, will gather to celebrate the 28-year-old’s life and musical contributions.</p>
<p>Born Kirsnick Khari Ball, Takeoff was killed on November 1 in a shooting outside a Houston bowling alley.</p>
<p>A woman and another man were also hurt.</p>
<p>No arrests have been made.</p>
<p>A celebration will be held at 12pm on Friday at Atlanta’s State Farm Arena, according to a press release from Quality Control Music and Motown Records.</p>
<p>Free tickets will be available to Georgia residents through Ticketmaster.</p>
<p>“Takeoff was one of the most influential names in modern music whose creativity left a profound impact on music and culture as we know it today,” the release said.</p>
<p>Instead of flowers or gifts, the family is asking people to make donations to The Rocket Foundation, which aims to support programmes using community-based solutions to stop gun violence, according to its website.</p>
<p>The foundation was set up in Takeoff’s honour, the website says.</p>
<p>He formed a third of the Grammy Award-nominated trio Migos along with his uncle Quavo and cousin Offset from suburban Atlanta.</p>
<p>Migos found fame almost a decade ago with 2013 hit Versace, which hit even greater heights in popularity though a Drake remix.</p>
<p>Takeoff was the youngest of the Migos trio and often considered to be its most laidback member.</p>
<p>Despite being more reserved, he did a lot of his talking through his rhymes.</p>
<p>He had hoped to gain more respect for his lyrical ability through Only Built for Infinity Links, an album he released with Quavo last month.</p>
