Quavo Sends Stern Message to Migos Fans

Quavo is tired of his Migos partners being compared to one another, and he wants it to stop. It’s something he communicated on Twitter not too long ago, which created a big response among fans.

“Stop comparing us, please. Put us against them,” he wrote. “Thank you.”

Quavo told everyone to stop comparing the Migos members.

Quavo’s request comes about a month after he released his solo debut “Quavo Huncho,” and about two weeks after Takeoff dropped his solo project “The Last Rocket,” so talk about which rapper is better has been high.

And more than likely, that conversation will continue when Offset drops his album on  December 14, which is his birthday.

While some people chose to ignore Quavo’s tweet and compared the Migos members anyway, a lot of folks agreed with him and said the three rappers shouldn’t be compared at any time.

“Truth is they’re a team,” one fan wrote. “There’s no such thing as Takeoff, Offset or Quavo, just Migos. Let’s not abuse the opportunity given to us to know their name.”

“I see it as a compliment,” another fan tweeted. “Everyone knows the Migos has no competition, so the only comparisons left is with each other.”

Others thought it was refreshing that Quavo shrugged off comparisons, especially when group members often try to hog the spotlight so they can be considered the leader.

“Watched a video of the Migos,” someone tweeted. “Ya’ll are tight as real blood bros. No competition between the group members. A refreshing move since most group members have egos, splitting the group.”

Democracy needs journalism it can trust.

This election season, the stakes are higher than usual — and so is the pressure on newsrooms to soften their coverage, stay quiet, or just disappear. Independent reporting, the kind that answers to readers instead of advertisers or political pressure, matters more in a moment like this, not less.

For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed independent and reader-funded. We have no corporate owner and no shareholders telling us what to cover or how to cover it. That independence is also our biggest vulnerability: nothing protects it except readers choosing to fund it directly.

Newspaper ad revenue has fallen more than 80% since 2005, and local newsrooms are closing at a rate of roughly two a week nationwide. When outlets go under in a moment like this, it's rarely the independent, reader-funded ones that get to stick around.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
