Jermaine Dupri is hoping that former Migos members Offset and Quavo will officially reconcile.
During an appearance on the BagFuel podcast, the So So Def founder shared his thoughts on the Migos’ breakup and how it forever changed the world of hip-hop in Atlanta.
“That hurt a lot of the city, period,” he explained. “The Migos breaking up was a bad situation for Atlanta because they was moving — and I think they’re better together anyway, me personally.”
He also shared how Takeoff’s death left a void in Atlanta and how the city is still grieving.
“It was really crazy for us. I ain’t think Atlanta ni**as was gonna die,” Dupri recalled. “An Atlanta rapper dying felt like ‘Aw damn, what the f**k is going on?’ It felt crazy to me.”
Less than a month before Takeoff died, Quavo and Takeoff’s collaborative album, Only Built For Infinity Links, was released. The project was the last to involve Migos member. While Quavo and Offset briefly reunited for a surprise performance at the 2023 BET Awards, they are not as close as they once were. One of the last times they were spotted together was with friends and family to honor Takeoff on what would have been his 31st birthday.
On Instagram, Quavo said he would always honor Takeoff’s memory.
“Happy Birthday Take!!! A 30 ball damn bro the youngest out gang getting old boyy but today we celebrate no matter what we will always celebrate you and keep your name alive as long,” his post read. “I’m here you are too twin it always have been like that and don’t nun change but the chains to infinity rocket man I love you. Lets get it!”
