\t\t\t\t\tUniversal Music Group Pulls Out of\u00a0Russia\t\t<\/p>\n<\/h3><\/div>\n

\t\t<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n

\n\tThe Migos rapper confirmed plans for a performance at Moscow\u2019s MTC Live Hall on April 18 with a post to his Instagram Story<\/a> on Tuesday (March 4), which included a flyer featuring himself and a link to ticketing information.<\/p>\n

\n\tSet is currently signed to Motown Records under the Universal Music Group umbrella. Billboard<\/em> has reached out to reps for Offset as well as Universal Music Group and Interscope\/Capitol for comment.<\/p>\n

\n\tUMG announced <\/a>it was pulling out of Russia in March 2022, after the country launched its attack on Ukraine.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cWe urge an end to the violence in Ukraine as soon as possible,\u201d a spokesperson for UMG said at the time.<\/a> \u201cWe are adhering to international sanctions and, along with our employees and artists, have been working with groups from a range of countries to support humanitarian relief efforts to bring urgent aid to refugees in the region.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tOther major Western music companies \u2014 such as Live Nation, Sony Music and Warner Music Group \u2014 also exited the country.<\/p>\n

\n\tHowever, some artists are starting to work their way back to performing in Russia. DaBaby<\/a>, who is signed to Interscope Records\/Universal Music Group, posted clips<\/a> of his time in Moscow last week, where he performed a show.<\/p>\n

\n\tOffset has stayed busy on the music side in 2025. He returned with his island-tinged single \u201cTen\u201d on Valentine\u2019s Day.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
