During an interview with radio personality Jenny Boom Boom, Atlanta-based rap group Migos gave their thoughts on the late Notorious B.I.G. and Tupac Shakur. They spoke on what rapper they favored the most, with Biggie taking the most votes, before speaking on what rap would be like today if the two artists were still alive.
According to Migos member Quavo, a lot of today’s rappers “wouldn’t be out” if Pac and Biggie were still alive. He explained that in today’s music a lot of biting and borrowing is involved, a trait he says wasn’t too prevalent in the 90s.
“A lot of rappers wouldn’t be out today,” Quavo said. “Yep. Because a lot of them doing what they doing. Or doing what they did. And, you know, they didn’t really too much like folks doing they style. Taking they style. Like back then when people was taking the style they was getting in trouble about it. You was getting exposed about it. You had to come with it. You know what I’m saying? Now everybody bite off each other, feed off each other. I ain’t saying nothing bad, but they wasn’t allowing that in the 90s. You was with one side and one side only.”
Prior to speaking on Pac and Biggie, Quavo spoke on Migos putting aspects of everyday life into their music.
“We put everything into it,” he said. “Like everyday life. We put it into our music. So, we make you like ‘Oh damn, I at least heard ‘Hannah Montana.’’”
In a previous interview with Jenny Boom Boom, Migos revealed that there is no feud with those in Three 6 Mafia or 2 Chainz.
“It’s no issue on that. We salute Three 6 Mafia,” Offset said during the interview, which was published last month. “They still great artists, but I feel like we came up with our own situation. And then I feel like sometimes people try to put somebody else on you. That could have been controversy through us. Us and Three 6 Mafia by that statement, but shout out to 2 Chainz. And shout out to Three 6 Mafia.”

This coming from actual biters.
And whats so sad is they so young and dumb they dont even KNOW their biting!!!!! I’m 25 n from Memphis and i can defiately tell you the “Migos Flow” is Lord Infamous 1,000,000,000,000%!!!
yep they biting off Lord Infamous, 3-6 Mafia, Bone Thugs even Flo-Rida
True, true. 90% of the radio rappers sound the same. That’s why you gotta respect artists like Drake, Tyler the Creator, Kendrick Lamar and J. Cole. They’re all artists who go off and do their own thing whether you like the music or not.
if pac and biggie were alive these clowns wouldnt have a rap career
aren’t migos the biggest gucci mane biters of all time?
truth is migos suck. i liked a few of their songs but it was really only because of the beats.
If 2Pac were alive he’d be on MMG.
If Biggie were alive he’d be on E1.
If 2pac was alive, MMG would never exist.
They why did they bite Three 6 Mafia’s flow and call it theirs?!?!
Honestly, who gives a flying fuck what the Migo is talking about? Why is this news?
These dudes were barely learning how to walk when Tupac and Biggie died. How the fuck would they know what Pac and Big would’ve tolerated?
Yea yea nigga
this nigga shouldnt even be talking all these niggas sound like gucci mane
Biggie sounded like Chubb Rock, so your point is moot.
That Biggie and Chubb Rock statement is very true…
Biggie and Chubb Rock don’t sound alike.
who cares about biggie and chubb rock? really doe
Gucci mane dropped like 11 maybe 20 mixtape/albums this year
hip hop is alive as fuckkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk
Lmaoo These ignorant lames ass niggas are actually right. If Pac and Biggie were still alive today alotta rappers wouldnt be here. Including fucking Migos, there rap skills and combined iq between all of them is probably -100
i was thinkin this to ahahah
not true at all
its only because they died at their high point we didn’t get to see their downfall
They are speaking the truth….They are probably frustrated with all of these ATL rappers biting their style. You can hate them, but they really did make that style their own…
I love beggi he was better than pac at raping but you cant compere pac and beggi pac is out of this world no one is like pac an no one will never be like pac he killed everything and exposed lot of fake niggas an beggi was a snicth
these guys bitch so much about biting, but these fags bit future, future been around for longer than all these guys, these guys never even heard of goodie mobb, future was hanging out with those cats back in the day, future BEEN chopping BMG!!!!
dont forget waka and gucci, throw in a lil weezy and you got migos

IF PAC AND BIG WAS ALIVE THERE WOULD BE NO QUAVO..LOL
if pac and big was alive rap would be the same..trust me
pac probley would of fell off by 2001…biggie would of retired in 03 when 50 came out lol
i mean we see rappers fall off all the time..its like when somebody die they automatic legends..smh
for example….say if wayne died in 2005 right after c2…everybody would of swore tht tha carter 3 was coming out in 06 and it would of been a classic..
i mean if 50 died after the massacre came out people would say he the greatest…
if Jay z is still on top of the rap game then of course 2Pac and biggie will be even higher
yea i dont think 2pac was gonna be able to top all eyez on me…..wait hold up he “dead” with the don killumanati
“If 2pac was alive, MMG would never exist”
Do try and explain that one.
what needs to be explained? Officer Ricky wouldn’t have a career if Pac was still alive he would have made it his mission to destroy that booty searching, inmate shooting, hand cuffing police ass nigga!
oh you know this for a fact right? lmao pac would be like 45 right now in the same boat as fat joe mobb deep n busta rhymes trying to get an audiences attention
if pac was still around he would’ve lost 75% of his fanbase like every other artist who was the biggest at one point
so if he was to diss ross it wouldn’t mean shit because the rap audience would tell him to sit his old washed up ass down
Ahahahaha tupac would actually be innth e same (if not bigger) category than jay z, you uneducated fuck! Do your homework before you talk shit boy!
Wrong.
oh yea? prove me wrong…
o wait….
^^^ is right.
is he? how do you know tho? when you suck a dead rappers dick can you see what wouldve happen to them if they were still alive?!
that’s crazy bro!
Pac would be married to Beyonce beleee dat and they would be Scientologists with Will, Jada, Jaden and Willow Smith
if pac were alive he’d be broke doing controversial interviews for vladtv
nuff said
Nope.
he’d be writing and starring in movies,writing books and he’d have his own record company too.
Lil niggas still believing Pac and Big wouldn’t become sellouts
