In a recent interview, Migos got a chance to discuss not only the diversity of Atlanta but somehow Makonnen coming out as gay popped up.
Quavo questioned people supporting Makonnen’s decision saying,
“They supported him?”
“All are wildly different MCs, illustrating the ‘diversity’ that Quavo says is one of the things he most loves about Atlanta. And so I’m surprised by Migos’ reaction when I mention iLoveMakonnen, the local MC who just came out as gay on Twitter. ‘Damn, Makonnen!’ Quavo bellows after an awkward interlude. I mention support I saw online for Makonnen’s decision. ‘They supported him?’ Quavo asks, raising an eyebrow. ‘That’s because the world is fucked up,’ says Offset. ‘This world is not right,’ Takeoff says. ‘We ain’t saying it’s nothing wrong with the gays,’ says Quavo. But he suggests that Makonnen’s sexuality undermines his credibility, given the fact that ‘he first came out talking about trapping and selling Molly, doing all that.'”
Rolling Stone’s Jonah Weiner went on to ask Quavo about an incident at Quality Control studios. The incident included a “woman with bright-blond hair and a regal bearing.” Weiner said there was an argument between the woman and Quavo is eventually taken outside.
“The [surveillance camera] picture is too small and grainy to say what exactly happens next, but I see the woman fall to the ground. O-Ron carries her, as she kicks furiously, away from Quavo. Soon a car arrives; she gets in and leaves. O-Ron returns and explains that the woman ‘fell down and busted her nose – her face is all bloody.'”
Migos has now apologized for the statement saying,
“We are all fan’s of Makonnens music and we wish he didn’t feel like he ever had to hide himself. We feel the world is fucked up that people feel like they have to hide and we’re asked to comment on someone’s sexuality. We have no problem with anyone’s sexual preference,” they added. “We love all people, gay or straight and we apologize if we offended anyone.”
