Quality Control’s triumphant trap trio, the Migos, has the opportunity to validate their blatant claims of making the Southern-bred rap subgenre “go pop,” on their latest magnum opus album Culture III. The gang has actually already ignited the internet inferno of interest in anticipation of the album with publicity pseudo-events including Quavo and Kendrick “Big Perk” Perkins’ social media beef that spilled over to ESPN’s First Take, and their pre-album single premiere on The Tonight Showwith Jimmy Fallon for the C3 track “Avalanche.” Nevertheless, the Migos have a major uphill battle to fight in order to measure up to their 2018 24-track C2 iteration of the series, which debuted atop the Billboard 200 Albums Chart — matching the chart birth of the inaugural Culture release the year before. However, with 19-tracks and features from Drake, Cardi B, Future, YoungBoy Never Broke Again and more, it appears the Migos have given themselves more than a swinging shot at redemption with their Culture III album.
