Offset believes Migos is the No. 2 best rap group next to OutKast.
On Wednesday, March 27, the Georgia native appeared on Club Shay Shay with Shannon Sharpe. During the interview, Sharpe asked Offset to rank Migos among the slew of rap groups in Hip-Hop. The 32-year-old artist began by placing Big Boi and Andre 3000 at No. 1, and declared he, Quavo and the late TakeOff are the No. 2 greatest rap group even above the likes of Goodie Mob, Run D.M.C., Wu-Tang Clan and others.
"If we going all the way, I'm still gon' stay at two because I'ma put OutKast first, I'ma put us two, Wu-Tang... rap groups... The LOX," Offset said.
Offset continued by saying he respects N.W.A. and understands what the group did for the next generation. However, he said that he was too young to experience their impact.
"I do pay respects," he added. "I ain't no young head not knowing what's going on. They kicked the doors down for us."
Offset, Quavo and TakeOff formed Migos in 2008. The trio skyrocketed into superstardom following the release of their official debut single "Versace" in 2013, especially after Drake gave the song his remix treatment. The group dropped four albums, two EP's and numerous mixtapes during their time together. In 2022, the group seemingly disbanded amid heightened tension between Quavo and Offset, which led to Quavo and TakeOff's solo album.
After TakeOff passed away, Quavo and Offset continued to beef but eventually they reconciled and even reunited for a performance in honor of TakeOff. In response to the debate, Quavo also placed his group over the rest. The "Greatness" rapper took to his Instagram Story and reacted to Offset's ranking.
"Migos The Best Group In the world," Quavo wrote. "Hands Down long live Take🚀"
