Migos continue to be the talk of the town with their latest album Culture II making its rounds. The trio sat down for a new cover story with British magazine NME to discuss a slew of things ranging from the new album, how they inspire drake, to them wanting to branch out into film.

What seemed like a hilarious day for Migos and the interviewer, see some excerpts below.

On the difference between Culture & Culture II

“We don’t compare our beautiful, monumental two pieces together,” explains Quavo. “Like, I can’t compare this ring to this ring”

Offset & Quavo on the Grammys and not winning anything

“They cheated us,” says Offset as I ask if they had a good time at the ceremony. “There was nothing bigger than the f**king ‘Culture’ album this whole last year!” adds a disgruntled Quavo. “They’re scared to handle the three-headed monster… Ooh! [But] we’ll be back next year.” His mumble then becomes a yell: “WE’LL BE F**KING BACK NEXT YEAR.”

Offset further explains his “queer” lyrics

“To me that ‘queer’ I don’t mean someone who’s gay. I mean lame people who film you, post it and stalk you. Lingo that means strange or odd.”

(NME points out, “Migos’ label, who tell us the group will refuse to answer questions about homophobic comments or run-ins with the law.”)

On wanting to branch out into film

“Real theatre movies, with real top A-list actors and s**t like that,” says Takeoff. Is something already in the pipeline? “Shh, you about to spill the beans right out of the can,” he says, pouring an imaginary tin of Heinz’s finest all over the floor. “No spilling.”

On inspiring folks like Drake and Kanye West

“I love it, it makes me happy inside, because I know we’re influencing and they’re inspired by us,” says Takeoff. “The greatest!” chips in Quavo.
