Offset, who played undercover CIA agent Kadri Kashan Khan, also debuted a new song during the episode. Speaking last week on the opportunity, Offset explained how the role complemented his vision for getting into acting.

Previously, Offset appeared as himself on a 2016 episode of Atlanta starring Donald Glover.
