“Migos – or the Migos, as the group usually calls itself – aren’t big. They’re gigantic.” – ROLLING STONE cover story

“With the release of Culture II – nearly a year to the day after its precursor arrived – Migos are once again poised to dominate the music world for the next 12 months.” – ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY

“The Migos’ best quality is their ability to present truly virtuosic rapping in ways that are commercially viable” – PITCHFORK  

Grammy-nominated recording artists Migos‘ CULTURE II album has made its first week debut at #1 on Billboard’s Top 200 Chart with 150,000 streaming units sold, 38,000 traditional sales and 11,000 track equivalent sales marking their second number one album after their last debut smash CULTURE and amassing 225.6 million streams in it’s first week. The trio has also announced they will be the esteemed musical guests on Saturday Night Live on March 3rd. 

The colossal 24-track album was released on January 26th, the anniversary of CULTURE, on Quality Control Music / Capitol Records / Motown Records at the same time as their performance on The Tonight Show starring Jimmy Fallon and the dropping of their first Rolling Stone magazine cover. 

The monumental feat gives the ATL trio their second number one album outselling its predecessor by 70,000 units. Eight songs from the album earned Top 10 positions on Spotify on the day it was released in addition to debuting at #1 in 62 countries on Apple Music achieving one of the largest debut weeks in the music platform’s history as the trio’s smashing success on streaming services continues to soar.

Wasting no time in 2018, Migos markedly eclipsed their sweeping success by gracing the cover of Rolling Stone and delivering an unforgettable performance of the Pharrell Williams–produced single “Stir Fry” on The Late Show Starring Jimmy Fallon. The group also sat down for an in-depth interview for CRWN with Elliott Wilson on Tidal and were featured as emoji’s in an Apple Musiccommercial also featuring “Stir Fry.” The first single from CULTURE II  ‘MotorSport‘ featuring reigning first ladies of hip-hop Nicki Minaj and Cardi B showcases the two female sensations making their first official appearance on a song together and currently holds the #1 spot at Urban Radio. The album hosts additional superstar features from the likes of Drake, Kanye West, Pharrell Williams, Gucci Mane, Travis Scott, Big Sean, Post Malone, 21 Savage and Ty Dolla Sign.

Crystal clear for all to hear, the 26-year-old spat:

“I cannot vibe with queers”

See what we mean below…

Taking to Instagram stories, in a set of entries which have now been deleted, Offset wrote the following. The appalling spelling and grammar are all his:

“tryna make me out to b a homophobic… ima whole gangsta….I don’t even speak on sexuality…

the difinition ain’t even that…tryna make it about gays…I work with them all the time at events dealing with fashion, tv shows.

I wasn’t gone speak on it but i see too many dumb ass MF on here talking about shit they don’t kno..I’m not against nobody…your choice in life.

I have fans that love my music..I don’t descriminate &  don’t speak on politics or sexuality. the actual meaning ima post it from google

I do not judge people..I been in front the real judge and they judged me and sentenced me. I’m here to bring people together with fun music. Culture 2 OTW.”

All of a sudden the shockingly poor spelling and grammar take a more professional turn and tone, leaving s wondering whether someone else intervened. It read:

“I apologise to anybody I offended by the world “queer”..

I was not referring to sexuality. I was referring to my reality of not hanging

around people that wanna post me and stalk me..sorry it was taken as the wrong content. only God can judge. I don’t.

I love all of my fans no matter race sexuality” 

Bye.

The fact he attempts the age-old practice of trying to make this about how “out of context” people took his words makes the whole episode worse. And ultimately null and voids any such apology from the jump.

While his writing casts doubt over his intellect, we highly doubt he’s that mentally divorced from reality to not know how his words would be taken.

From where we’re sitting, he got taken to task for an offensive lyric on the cusp of an album release and is executing poor damage control.

Your thoughts?

Earlier today, Quavo tweeted a video titled “CULTURE NATIONAL ANTHEM” that featured a snippet of new music. The clip included footage of Martin Luther King, Jr., and it ended with a graphic that teased Culture II. Check out the video below.
