Atlanta trio Migos continue to prove doubters the numbers never lie. The hip-hop group’s new Culture II album has reportedly hit a billion streams faster than any other music act.

According to reports, Migos’ must-hear album is doing legit numbers across all streaming giants.

During the All-Star tipoff event on the Capitol lot, Quality Control/Motown/Capitol’s Migos (whose “Stir Fry” is practically the NBA theme song) receive a plaque commemorating their unreal streaming numbers. The trio got to 1 billion streams faster than any group ever with Culture II, causing Steve Barnett to become so giddy he could barely execute his turnaround jump shot. Still: Nothin’ but net.

In a new interview, Migos’ Offset and Quavo talked about coming up short at the recent Grammy Awards show.

Speaking to NME in this week’s magazine, Offset said: “They cheated us.” “There was nothing bigger than the f*cking ‘Culture’ album this whole last year,” Quavo asserted. “They’re scared to handle the three-headed monster… Ooh! [But] we’ll be back next year… WE’LL BE F*CKING BACK NEXT YEAR.” (NME)

Quavo also dished on branding Culture and promising to keep their movement going for years to come.

Asked whether fans should expect a ‘Culture III’ in the future, Quavo told NME: “The culture goes forever and we will never RIP the culture. You’re trying to figure out if the culture will live on through one, two, three, four, five, six – that we don’t know, we will make you WAIT ON IT. But the culture will not die, the culture will live forever.” On how it feels to have inspired artists like Kanye and Drake, Takeoff said: “I love it, it makes me happy inside, because I know we’re influencing and they’re inspired by us.” (NME)

Earlier this month, Migos’ Quavo reacted to their Culture II album recently dominating the sales chart.
