    To wake up and read this. Very sad. I'll be honest that I wasn't a Migos fan, though they did have some songs I liked. But Takeoff always came off as the chill, quiet type. So it was sad to see this and the rumors behind it are crazy. smh.

    I'm familier with the Migos, but not them individually as people, if they're innocent and don't have any bodies to their name, then this is really a shame to hear, but if they do then I'm not surprised that they're dead at all, but anyways sad to see another Black person die from something so stupid.

    RIP to Takeoff 🙏 😢
    Quavo have just counted his losses, kept his ego in check, and left.
    This was so not worth it. It's not like he's not rich.
    Now because of a petty argument from a losing gamble went wrong, Quavo not only lost not his money, but ultimately his best friend and bandmate.

    Everyone understands Houston is gunplay heavy. Why are you shooting dice outside with dusty dudes? Secondly,don't ever,ever,move a victim of a gunshot wound. These rappers never leave the streets then wonder why they end up in low level situations. Everyone knows who did it but the no-snitching rule is in effect. This is the darkside of Hip-Hop culture because the streets don't care what your name is. Mix in weed,alcohol, & pills to the equation for an explosive result. Off code behavior by another dustball. R.I.P. to Takeoff

    Rappers and the super thug persona is why they are getting capped. I remember watching their interview with Everyday Struggle at the BET Awards where they tried to step to Joe Budden. When I saw that I knew that one day they would try that with the wrong ones and get their cabbage turned into coleslaw.

    It’s sad but I knew it was going to happen one of these days because they be trying to fight too much. I remember when they got mad in an interview and tried to fight Joe Budden. The tough guy shit catches up with you in the end.
    when you have the opportunity to make money, and you don't change the way you think, move to build more money and a legacy, this is the type of karma that will come for you. There is a reason the "Old heads" (like these new kids say) are still around like Ice Cube, Ice T., Snoop ect.

    If you have the money, start by changing & building the community that you grew up in. Can you imagine how many Black communities would be changed for the better, if these selfish & greedy Black celebrities did that?

    Just heard about it about 5 minutes ago. Horrible news, and to see it may have been partially due to a friend shooting him first. And all because of a damn dice game. It's not worth it, we can't keep letting this happen to each other.

    I wonder what the full story is going to be once it's been confirmed. A lot alleged so far, but I'm going to assume it's true for the most part.

    RIP. At the risk of talking ill of the dead, Migos is a huge group. They are big enough to play pretty much anywhere in the world because they are not that recognizable of a group. At that level, where you have leveled up to international status, dice games are something that is not in your vocabulary.

    Jay Z, Diddy, 50 cent, when they leveled up, they quit the streets ish. As far as I know Migos wasn't really about that type of life in their songs, etc, right?

    Needless. He was rich. When I see millionaire black people, I immediately think of generational wealth and possibilities.

    Holy shit it popped off quickly. Quavo is going to need therapy because he is going to be thinking of all the things he could have done different.
    Right or wrong he's gonna feel immense guilt for the rest of his life

    Why does it always have to involve guns when an argument breaks out? Why can't it just be an argument and end it at that?

    28 years old.


    So no one currently knows who shot the bullet that took his life? I haven't watched any videos of that night since I don't want to see it myself. I heard that Quavo was arguing with someone before the shots happened, but don't know who had the guns.
