Quavo & Takeoff Drop “Nothing Changed” Single
Quavo & Takeoff Drop Their Latest Single “Nothing Changed”
We’re less than a week away from the release of Quavo and Takeoff’s upcoming album, Only Built For Infinity Links. The new project will be their first as a duo, sans Offset. However, Quavo and Takeoff haven’t sounded as revitalized in the past five years as they have on the slew of singles they released since May’s “Hotel Lobby (Unc & Phew).”
Today, the duo slid through with their fourth and presumably final single before the album drops in its entirety. “Never Changed” boasts production from Murda Beatz, Keanu Beats, and Fabio Aguilar, who create a spacey soundscape for Quavo and Takeoff. The two artists come through with honeyed melodies, paired with ostentatious bars that reflect their wealth and loyalty.
Only Built For Infinity Links will boast features from Birdman, Gucci Mane, Summer Walker, Young Thug, Gunna, and more.
Check out their new song below and sound off with your thoughts in the comments.
Quotable Lyrics
No letterman, I been a veteran
N***a do anything for a name
When you start getting them ‘lil chains, watch how your partners and everything change
And when you step foot in that field, make sure you’re strapped and make sure you got aim

Offset Announces The Release Date For His Upcoming Solo Album
After dropping videos for singles “54321” and “Code” with Moneybagg Yo, Migos member Offset announced the release date for the as-yet-untitled solo album he’s been working on this year. On Wednesday afternoon (September 21), he tweeted a date, 11/11/22, then, perhaps feeling that was a little too cryptic, followed up a few minutes later with “Album!!!!!!!!” making sure his fans and followers knew what he was talking about.

Offset has been promoting his solo turn for some time, first teasing new music in May as Migos’ other two members, Quavo and Takeoff, released their first track as a duo. He continued to tease the solo project in August and earlier this month, performed both new singles on The Tonight Show. And while no member of Migos has made mention of any serious rift between the band of brothers (or rather, cousins and a nephew), toward the end of August, Offset took legal action against the trio’s record label, Quality Control Music, over allegedly claiming ownership of his solo releases, suggesting that his real issue might be with the group’s business partners.
For now, it’s up in the air whether Migos will reunite as the three-headed monster that stomped through the music scene with hit after hit. ‘Til we know more, we can still look forward to two new projects from the group’s members. Quavo and Takeoff’s album, Only Built For Infinity Links, is due October 7, and Offset’s album is due November 11.
Offset Performs ‘Code’ And ‘54321’ While Promoting His Show ‘The Hype’ On ‘The Tonight Show’
Quavo and Takeoff, aka 2/3 of Migos, announced their duo album Only Built For Infinity Links earlier today, but they aren’t the only members of the Atlanta trio dropping new music soon. Offset, the third leg of the Migos tripod, has also been gearing up for a solo project, releasing the singles “54321” and “Code” in anticipation. Last night, he stopped by the Tonight Show to perform a medley of the new songs and talk with Jimmy Fallon about his other projects like his show The Hype and his and Cardi B’s son Wave’s over-the-top first birthday celebration.
In explaining his reasoning for launching The Hype, Offset talked about how he wants to give a platform to streetwear designers while preparing them for the trials of breaking into the world of fashion, which can be brutal for up-and-coming designers. He also recalled how he discovered his oldest son has been making beats on the side and his plans to let him develop before working with him as a father/son tandem.
Meanwhile, fans continue to wonder whether Offset has had some sort of falling out with the other two Migos since they are all releasing separate projects and remaining cagey about the group’s status. Offset also had some legal issues with the group’s label, Quality Control Music, which he says is trying to take credit for his solo material. Whether that friction contributed to the group’s (temporary?) dissolution also remains to be seen. Until then, you can check out Offset’s interview and performance above.
Quavo And Takeoff Announce Their Wu-Tang Clan-Inspired Unc And Phew Album Title
Ever since Quavo and Takeoff dropped their first Offset-less single, “Hotel Lobby,” under the mouthful of a moniker Unc And Phew, fans have wondered whether they are still Migos, whether Offset will rejoin at some point, and even whether or not Unc And Phew is actually the group’s name (no one seems to actually be using it).
And now, we know the title of their upcoming duo album thanks to a trailer shared on Quavo’s social media pages (but not the Migos pages or Takeoff’s pages, further complicating the issue). It’s ironic that the new album they just announced evokes the name of a Wu-Tang Clan member’s classic solo debut because the rollout has been one big Wu-Tang caliber question mark. Only Built For Infinity Links is due on October 7, giving them a full 30 days to sort this rollout and get fans invested.
They’re already well on the way with “Hotel Lobby” and its follow-up, “Big Stunna” featuring Birdman, but fans can’t help questioning whether this really means the end of Migos, especially since Offset has been teasing his own solo project. While each member of the group did release a solo project a few years ago and Quavo has even done group projects with other artists, the trio did make clear that they would reunite after all three individual albums were out. This time, it’s anybody’s guess, and that could work in their favor if fans decide to check out the two albums they’ve got coming out of curiosity, but it could also backfire, since fans love them so much as a trio.
Either way, we’ll find on 10/7 when Only Built For Infinity Links drops on Quality Control Music.
