“It’s so hard to tell you I’mma miss you because you’re always with me,” Quavo wrote. “And we did everything together. Since we were kids you been by my side, lookin up at me, them eyes waiting on me to make the next move, then you followed up right behind me. You always made sure I did it first so you can do it right with me. You never competed with me, we were always on the same team. You hated playing against me.”
Quavo recalled Takeoff being the “most unbothered person in the world,” and said he was someone who never got mad or raised his voice. However, he also pointed out that his nephew was always the “funniest” person in the room, as well. He called Takeoff his “angel” and said he was “proud” to be his uncle. “You will continue to send your blessings down from heaven,” he wrote. “And I will continue to keep your name alive as long as I live.”
Quavo and Takeoff formed Migos with Offset in 2008. They released their debut single “Versace” in 2013, followed by four studio albums and numerous mixtapes. As a solo artist, Takeoff released one studio album that came out in 2018, plus five singles. Migos collaborated with other artists such as Offset’s wife Cardi B, Nicki Minaj, Drake, and Travis Scott. Articles Trending Now
