2017 was the year of the Migos, but 2018 is the year of you! If you want to thrive within the next 10 months, I advise you to take a listen to the best trio since Ed, Ed & Eddy for they have successfully inspired me every morning and perform in front of the mirror.
1. "Ima get that bag, ain't no way around it." -Takeoff, T-Shirt.
Despite owning watches that cost a mortgage, Takeoff never stops chasing the bag.
2. "Cry me a river, give you a tissue." -Offset, Bad and Boujee
Heartlessly, Offset makes it clear he has no remorse for these hoes but at least he offers his sympathy with a "dab" of tissue.
3. "I Gucci'd her collar, now she can't get over me." -Offset, Slippery
Offset buys a girl one polo and now she's stuck. I give a girl a damn like on Twitter, and I get a message asking "What do you want Charles?" Geez.
4. "Tell me what the preacher preach about. Tell me what the teacher teach about. I'm a go find me a better route." -Takeoff, What the Price
This is my absolute favorite verse of his, highlights the fact of people idolizing these positions and not realizing how great it is to create something of yourself like Takeoff clearly has.
5. "You talkin' bout modern day rap, but don't know the culture." -Quavo, Brown Paper Bag
Wow, Quavo must've read my article, "If You're Hating on Millennial's Music Taste, You're Wrong"
6. "No credit, no debit, the cash way. No stomach, no waist, pretty face, the ass way." -Takeoff, All Ass
Takeoff has been taking notes on how I function, my two favorite things: ass & cash.
7. "Remember they laughed and laughed at the craft and now we getting to the plaques." -Quavo, Pop Sh*t
Quavo reminds us all that never forget who slept on you in the beginning because soon they'll envy your success, maybe not a platinum album though...
8. "Count all these racks and I flex it and I flex it." -Offset, Hook Up
In 2018, when you get the opportunity count your money and flex it in the mirror, I promise you'll feel just as good as Offset does off the percocets.
9. "Put my mind on it then I put my grind on it." -Offset, Ric Flair Drip
I'm a true believer in the theory of "if you put your mind to it, you can do it" and apparently so is Mr. Offset.
10. "Ever since I was a lil' boy, yeah, I'm having a Huncho status." -Quavo, Big on Big
Me and you both Quavo, I've known I'd be the man as a child. What can I say, Quavo and I are close.
The Migos set the bar high, literally and lyrically, for the rap game in the previous year but unfortunately, they let me down with Culture 2. Maybe in 2019, Quavo and Offset will return with the inspirational quotes and finally TakeOff.
