Quavo Delayed His Upcoming Solo Album ‘Rocket Power’ To ‘Run Some More Tests’

It looks like we’re going to have to wait a little bit longer for Quavo‘s second solo album, Rocket Power. Yesterday, the Migos rapper took to Instagram to share that Rocket Power has been pushed back.

In a video on Quavo’s account, the Atlanta rapper is seen listening to mixes of the new album. “We gotta run some more tests before the rocket is ready to launch,” the post’s caption reads.

The album was originally set to drop this Friday, but has now been pushed back two weeks. The album is largely inspired by his Migos bandmate Takeoff, who was killed last November following an altercation in Houston.

In a recent interview with Jamie Crawford-Walker, Quavo shared that he has felt Takeoff’s presence everywhere as he’s been working on the project.

“I miss him a lot and I love him,” Quavo said. “He know I love him. That’s what we always know. So when you see me and you see me smiling or something like that, you don’t gotta never think I forgot about him or I’ll forget about him. I think about him all the time. Sometimes I cry myself to sleep. And that’s it. I just know he’s here. If I can’t feel him, I just know he’s around.”

Rocket Power is out 8/18 via Quality Control/Capitol.

A Posthumous Takeoff Album Is On The Way, According To A New Quavo Video

Quavo has been open about his grief for his nephew and fellow Migos member Takeoff who tragically died last year. He mourned Takeoff on his moving song “Letter To Takeoff” in January. He shared a tribute to Takeoff last month on what would’ve been his 29th birthday.

On his YouTube channel, Quavo has made himself more vulnerable with a new video talking with Jamie Crawford-Walker. It’s titled “A Conversation For The Fans. #RocketPower,” the hashtag referencing his forthcoming album of the same title. In the video, he said that he plans to preserve unreleased music from Takeoff for a posthumous album, which amounts to 1,000 verses.

“I just feel my boy’s energy. He got his chair over there, he just be kickin’ it,” he said about Takeoff. “I always kick it with him. People don’t understand, but I be there. I be there in the house making sure all his stuff is straight, all his jewelry is clean. Still taking care of all his cars and all of that.”

“Just being fueled by my brother, Take,” he said about the album title Rocket Power, “and bottling in all these emotions — all the pain, all the hard times, all the times I cried and all the times I just made music to pull up and try to play songs and he’s not there. I’m just trying to get this fuel from above and this fuel from the sky and call it ‘rocket power.’”

Quavo Stars in 'Crash Bandicoot' Trailer

Quavo was handcuffed on a yacht in Miami as police investigated reports of two men threatening the boat’s captain. According to TMZ, Quavo or anyone else did not get arrested, but the video shows zip ties around the wrist of the rapper as he spoke with officers.

The call was in response to two men who were demanding a refund for the yacht experience once the captain said their rental time was coming to a close. The police report states two men threatened the captain’s life and also threatened to toss him from the boat if the trip ended.

A crew member also stated the captain had his wallet and cell phone taken, but there are contrasting reports of that happening.

Quavo’s attorney, Drew Findling, released a statement: “To be clear Quavo was NOT mentioned in the police report narrative. Not only was Quavo NOT arrested, he is not even listed as a witness to any alleged dispute. Ultimately, no one on the boat was arrested.”

Quavo Addressed Migos’ Split, Offset’s Recent Comments, And His Album Release Date In The ‘Rocket Power’ Trailer

There likely won’t be any new Migos music in the foreseeable future, but that doesn’t mean you won’t hear from the two remaining members, Quavo and Offset. Both rappers have been working on their respective solo albums for a bit, and now, it looks like Quavo’s, Rocket Power is soon to be released.

After releasing the single “Turn Yo Clic Up” with Future last week, today, Quavo shared an album trailer on his Instagram. Fittingly, it features Quavo facing off with a rocket shuttle in the desert, gripping Takeoff’s Migos chain (the album’s title is an homage to Takeoff, whose own solo debut was called The Last Rocket).

In the song playing over the scene, Quavo mentions Offset’s departure from the group (“my cousin jumped out the car, I had to keep goin’”) and recent comments about their familial relationship (“now he tellin’ the whole world that we ain’t blood”), which was foundational to the group’s mythology. However, he measures the lyrics by remembering that “it’s all love.” The trailer ends with the title displayed on screen, along with the imminent release date: August 4, 2023. You can check out the trailer below.

Rocket Power is due on 8/4 via Quality Control Music/Motown/Capitol Records.

Usher’s Las Vegas residency remains the hottest ticket on the planet. Hitting the show was another Atlanta legend in Quavo, who was spotted with his rumored boo Erica Fontaine.

According to The Shade Room, Fontaine is a gymnast, and Usher asked for permission to sing to her during the show.

Last week, the Internet put Quavo and Lori Harvey in a new romance after the two were at the San Vincente Bungalows at the same time. According to TMZ, the two just coincidentally ate at the same place at the same time and were not together.

Quavo was reportedly at The Bungalows at a completely different table and was there for a business meeting. Harvey also hit TikTok comments to reveal she was out “having lunch with my besties.”

Meanwhile, Harvey is vacationing with her actual boyfriend, Damson Idris, in Saint Tropez.
