Quavo Drops Emotional Takeoff Tribute Song and Video “Without You”
Written by Rika C on January 5, 2023
Quavo released his first single since the death of his Migos bandmate Takeoff.
The single, “Without You,” is a tribute to the late Atlanta rapper, who is also Quavo’s nephew. The song hit streaming services, and the accompanied music video was released on Huncho’s YouTube channel on Wednesday just before midnight. The clip shows Quavo in the studio vibing the song while smoking a blunt while Quality Control’s CEO, Pierre “Pee” Thomas, looks on.
“Tears rolling down my eyes/Can’t tell you how many times I cried/Can’t tell you how many times I cried/ Days ain’t the same without you/ Ion kno if I’m the same without you/ Remember the days we smoked big blunts together,” he raps.
Takeoff was shot and killed in Houston on November 1, 2022, reportedly after an argument between Quavo and others over a game of dice. The rapper was only 28 years old at the time of his death. Police say he was an innocent bystander who was struck by bullets in the head and torso after suspect Patrick Xavier Clark started shooting in a crowd of people. Clark was later arrested and charged with murder.
