Quavo, member of the rap trio Migos, has released his second solo album titled 'Rocket Power.' This album is significant as it is his first release since the death of Takeoff, his nephew and bandmate, who was killed in a shooting last year. Quavo guarded his new music until the album deadline, keeping it secret even from his management team. He explained that this was due to his vulnerability and the fact that it would be the first time releasing music that Takeoff hadn't heard first. Quavo also mentioned that creating the album was the toughest experience he has ever had.
In the months following the Grammys, Quavo went silent on his management team, then popped up with 12 songs (“Super, super aggressive, super angry,” the rapper said) over a 48-hour period that he wanted to release immediately. https://t.co/OGu1AyQEGT
