#119 CULTURE ALBUM REVIEW - #MIGOS
In this high-energy episode of That's Hip-Hop, Mark, Ali, and Isaiah dive headfirst into Migos’ explosive Culture album, a modern classic that redefined the trap genre and brought group dynamics roaring back to the forefront of hip-hop. With their signature triplet flow, infectious adlibs, and slick charisma, Migos—Quavo, Offset, and the late Takeoff—crafted a sound that was instantly viral and undeniably influential. The hosts reminisce on the cultural takeover ignited by tracks like “Versace,” “T-Shirt,” and “Bad and Boujee,” while unpacking how the group’s innovation rippled through everything from radio waves to meme culture. It’s a tribute wrapped in analysis, equal parts appreciation and exploration of why Culture wasn’t just an album—it was a movement.
The conversation spans far beyond beats and bars, touching on the legacy of hip-hop groups, the decline of collectives in modern rap, and Migos’ role in reshaping the game for a new generation. From dissecting the thought behind the collage-styled album cover to recognizing their influence on pop collaborations and streetwear, Mark, Ali, and Isaiah celebrate Migos’ artistry while mourning the absence of more hip-hop groups today. They point out that while solo ventures were solid, nothing quite matched the synergy of Migos united. With sharp commentary and nostalgic flair, this episode captures the essence of Culture—a project that didn't just reflect the scene, it became it. What's your favorite Migos moment from Culture?
