Migos fans are worried the Atlanta trio may be on the verge of calling it quits — or already have.
On Wednesday (May 18), Migos was a trending Twitter topic after an eagle-eyed fan noticed Offset and his wife Cardi B had unfollowed Quavo and Takeoff on social media. The move comes on the same day Quavo and Takeoff announced a new collaborative single called “Hotel Lobby” under the monikers Unc and Phew, a nod to their familial ties.

Migos latest album — Culture III — arrived last June, debuting at No. 2 on the Billboard 200. At the time, the trio appeared to be a united front, often doing interviews together and promoting their fourth studio effort with vigor. Speaking to NME, Offset credited Migos’ success to old fashioned “blood, sweat and tears.”
He continued, “It’s always been a part of our story that we show up with the goods and prove you wrong. That’s been our narrative from then, and we’ve been good with that. It always leaves room for improvement.”
Quavo added, “It’s a blessing to be ahead of the curve. We always want to prove ourselves because we don’t do much talking. We don’t run around saying that we’re the best and ain’t nobody better than us; we like to work. We put in the practice and the time, and sometimes we don’t get credited for it. We feel some type of way behind that when we feel mis-credited.”
A lot can change in a year and if Offset’s social media behavior is any indication of what’s ahead, Migos as rap fans once knew them could be a thing of the past. Check out some of the reactions below.

The Migos having possibly broken up is sad but makes sense to me. It’s been clear for a while now that they were never going to make an album as good as Culture together again.

Migos allegedly breaking up is honestly the end of an era. They changed the young generation of trap music, put Versace back on the map in urban spaces & created an entire generation of rap offspring
All good things come to an end, but their impact will be felt for years to come
