Quavo’s Emotional Tribute Song To Takeoff Has Fans On The Verge Of Tears

Following a two-month hiatus in the wake of Takeoff’s death, Quavo came through with a tribute song on Wednesday night dedicated to his nephew. Qua’s latest single goes into detail about his relationship with Takeoff, deeper than what the world saw. He reflects on their time growing up together in the Nawfside, the times they shared on stage, and vowing to keep his name alive as long as he can.

“I wish I had a time machine/ So you can take a ride with me,” he sings on “WITHOUT YOU.” “Wrap my arms around and hold you tight, Phew/ So you can never say goodbye to me.”

Quavo released the single on Soundcloud and dropped a lyric video on YouTube, announcing it on Twitter once it went live. The visuals largely show the Migos rapper sitting and smoking in the studio while the lyrics appear on the screen.
