We was the closеst (On God),” he rhymes on “Hold Me.”

The new teaser has supporters eagerly-awaiting the music video, sounding off in the comments section. Rocket Power has already managed to become a fan-favorite, also boasting features from Future, Young Thug, and more. It follows his first solo effort, 2018’s Quavo Huncho. “This album is for the Rocket, our true fans, and also this is my therapy,” Quavo explained earlier this summer. “This album is a true reflection of how I feel right now.”
Takeoff was tragically shot in 2020, leading to his untimely death at the age of 28. Since his passing, both of his former Migos group mates have paid tribute to the late artist. Quavo and Offset gave a touching performance in his honor at the 2023 BET Awards, which gained the respect of fans and peers alike. Following the tragedy, Quavo told his late nephew, “You will continue to send your blessings down from Heaven and I will continue to keep your name alive as long as I live.”
