Quavious Keyate Marshall, better known as Quavo, was born on April 2, 1991, in Lawrenceville. An American rapper and record producer, he is the frontman of the hip-hop group Migos, which he formed in 2008 with his nephew Takeoff and their mutual friend Offset. The trio released four commercially successful studio albums before disbanding in 2023 and reuniting in 2026.
As a solo act, Quavo has guest performed on six Billboard Hot 100 top ten singles, including Post Malone’s diamond-certified “Congratulations,” Justin Bieber’s “Intentions,” Liam Payne’s “Strip That Down,” Drake’s “Portland,” and DJ Khaled’s “No Brainer” and “I’m the One,” the latter of which peaked at number one. His debut studio album, Quavo Huncho (2018), peaked at number two on the Billboard 200 and spawned the platinum-certified single “Workin Me.”
His second album, Rocket Power (2023), peaked at number 18 and was released in memory of Takeoff, who was fatally shot the year prior. The loss of his nephew and groupmate looms over the project, which stands as a tribute.
