Offset and Quavo have apparently buried the hatchet.
While sitting down with the 7PM in Brooklyn With Carmelo Anthony podcast to promote his upcoming album KIARI, Offset revealed that he and fellow Migos member Quavo talk regularly.
“Me and Quavo talk every other week,” he told Anthony after being asked about his childhood friend and collaborator. “It be the Internet trying to do some old sh–, but with us, it ain’t about that. Like, we holla at each other. That’s family at the end of the day, man. You’re gonna bump heads with your family sometime. End of the day, a n—a ain’t finna play with him, or a n—a ain’t finna play with me and he gon’ play about it.”
He added that they were recently together for what would’ve been Takeoff‘s 31st birthday.
“Gotta celebrate him. Any bullsh– get put aside about bruh. Because he was the glue,” Offset continued. “He was the one who keep our head straight when we were trying to — you know how that sh– be, man? The three of us n—as think one way, one way. He always was the n—a that was the medium.”
“Buddy ain’t trying to argue. He don’t want you to do nothing. He’s just peaceful, bruh,” he added. “He still be around, though. You feel him.”
Offest and Quavo reunited during the 2023 BET Awards to pay tribute to their bandmate Takeoff after rumors swirled about a supposed rift between the two that eventually lead to the Migos disbandment.
Elsewhere in the interview, Offset admitted that the business side of things with the Migos factored into his decision to go solo and leave the group. “I just wanted more for myself as an artist,” he said before explaining that he wasn’t happy with the business arrangement. “Speaking truthfully — I never said this publicly — I didn’t want to do that sh–, but it was the best thing for me to do as a man.”
He also said that he and Quavo didn’t want to continue on with the group after Takeoff’s untimely passing in 2022. “People don’t understand like personally losing a bro? N—as don’t wanna continue that. It ain’t the same juice.”
And speaking of the Migos as a group, the subject of Billboard‘s list of the 50 Greatest Rap Groups of All Time came up and Offset jokingly said that the influential group out of Atlanta should’ve been ranked higher on the list instead being ranked at No. 11.
“They tried us,” he joked. “Let’s put that out there…It gets sticky because you gotta respect the greats, but you gotta respect the different chambers that we broke that they didn’t break too. Like they put the concrete on the floor, but then we put the street lights and the light poles on this mother—-er too. But to put us at 11? We gotta be top five.”
