Last night (June 25) was the 2023 BET Awards, and the performances did not miss! One, in particular, that had everyone talking was Offset and Quavo reuniting onstage for the first time since their fellow Migos member Takeoff was tragically shot and killed in November 2022.
“I can’t take it right now. Proud of the boys,” Cardi B tweeted with crying emojis during the show. As many know, before Takeoff’s untimely death, the “Bodak Yellow” rapper collaborated with Migos on songs like “MotorSport” and “Drip.” Throughout her highly public relationship and marriage to Offset, the New York native became close with the other group members. Earlier this year, she opened up about how she found out about the loss.
“We just fell asleep, and out of nowhere, Offset’s phone kept ringing. My phone kept ringing. Offset picked up the phone, and he [was] just like, ‘Noooo,’ and he [was] screaming and screaming. I’m like, ‘What’s going on?’ and he’s like, ‘Takeoff is dead.’ I smacked him, and I said, ‘Don’t say that. Like, don’t say that!’ And then he [was] just screaming, and just throwing things, throwing up, running all over, and I was so scared. I was just crying so much. It was terrible,” Cardi recalled during an interview for “The Jason Lee Show” in January.
In February, Cardi, Offset, and Quavo made headlines for an alleged argument between the guys backstage at the Grammys. There were rumors that the fuss stemmed from Offset not being included in Quavo’s tribute to Takeoff. “Both of y’all wrong. This is not right,” the mother of two was videoed yelling, although it was unclear who she was speaking to. “Whatever Cardi said at the Grammys worked,” one fan tweeted in response to the honorary Migos reunion last night. “Good look for the CULTURE!” another added.
