Offset wants everyone to know the lines between him and Quavo have been open for a while now. The catch, as he put it on Shade 45, is that the healing still isn’t finished.
Sitting down with DJ Whoo Kid on the SiriusXM channel, the Migos rapper explained why he turned up at Quavo’s album release party in September. “Blessings, the rebuild is always the best build,” Offset said. “I was there to support my brother.”
He kept it short when talking about how the past few years have felt. “Sh*t hard,” he admitted, before adding, “It’s always been love.”
That party appearance caught attention because the two had a very public fallout following the death of Takeoff in 2022.
Takeoff, Quavo’s nephew and the third member of Migos, was shot and killed at a Houston bowling alley that November, and the loss left the group’s future in limbo.
The cracks had started showing even before then. In the months leading up to Takeoff’s death, Quavo and Takeoff released Only Built for Infinity Links as a duo, a project that arrived without Offset and fueled talk of tension inside the trio.
Fans did get one moment of unity. Offset and Quavo shared the stage at the 2023 BET Awards to honor Takeoff, a tribute plenty of people read as a sign the rift was over.
According to Offset, the real work was happening out of sight. “It’s a time and a place for everything and so we just clicking,” he said. “We been talking for a long time.”
He made it clear the silence was intentional. “Ya’ll just ain’t know,” he told Whoo Kid. “It just wasn’t for the world to know. We had to heal behind the scenes.”
There are two ways to read that. On one hand, it reframes years of speculation about bad blood, suggesting the public story never fully matched what was going on privately.
On the other, Offset was upfront that a few conversations and a party appearance don’t wipe the slate clean.
“We still ain’t heal,” he said. “It’s just building with your family. Some stuff don’t go out the house.”
That family line is literal. Offset is Quavo’s cousin, and Migos came up together out of Gwinnett County, Georgia, turning out hits like “Bad and Boujee” and the Culture album series before things fractured.
Since then, both have leaned into solo careers. Quavo released Rocket Power in 2023, a project shaped heavily by grief over Takeoff, while Offset dropped Set It Off later that same year.
For now, Offset isn’t promising a reunion, a joint album or anything beyond what he said on air. He’s keeping the details inside the house, and the rest of us are left watching for the next time the two show up in the same room.
