Offset and Quavo have once again fueled the rumors that their relationship is now beyond repair after they were spotted sitting apart at an Atlanta Hawks game.
The former Migos rappers both sat courtside as they took in the Hawks’ matchup against the Portland Trail Blazers on Friday night (March 3rd), but notably had no contact with each other, Daily Mail reports.
Quavo appeared to be alone and attempted to keep a low profile, wearing a graphic face mask, sunglasses and a baseball cap. Offset, on the other hand, sat with two of his sons and could be seen smiling as he spoke to the boys.
The public sighting comes less than two weeks after Quavo declared the Migos “can’t come back” in his new song “Greatness.”
The song, released February 23, hears Huncho pay homage to his fallen nephew TakeOff and acknowledge the group’s impact on his life as he closes out the Reggae-inspired track with the lines, “I couldn’t do it without the greatest group in the world … I couldn’t do it without the greatest nephew in the world.”
Throughout the song, Quavo shouts out his sister (TakeOff’s mother), his own mother, and his label QC, but never addresses or mentions Offset directly.
“Greatness” serves as Quavo’s second musical offering since TakeOff’s death following the somber “Without You,” which he released in January.
The 31-year-old performed the song alongside the Maverick City Music choir at the 2023 Grammys Awards earlier in February, which saw him hold aloft Take’s chain as a photo of his late nephew filled the giant onstage screen behind him.
The performance allegedly further sowed discord between the surviving Migos members, with TMZ reporting that Quavo and Offset got into a fight backstage at the Grammys after the former refused to let the latter join him onstage.
Offset refuted the report by tweeting: “What tf look like fighting my brother yal niggas is crazy,” but a video that emerged days later showing Cardi B yelling at multiple people backstage lent credence to the story.
Cracks in the Migos’ close-knit relationship began to appear months before TakeOff was shot and killed outside a Houston bowling alley on November 1. Rumors of the group disbanding circulated last May after fans noticed Offset and his wife Cardi B had unfollowed both Quavo and TakeOff on Instagram.
That same day, Quavo and TakeOff announced they had formed a new duo called Unc & Phew — a nod to their familial ties — and were readying their first single, “Hotel Lobby.” The song eventually landed on their Only Built For Infinity Links album, which dropped just weeks before TakeOff’s murder.
