Originally the group started as family, who all had an interest in music. It wasn't until 2008 that this trio took their talent seriously, and put together and released their first project "Juug Season" in 2011. The group later released another mixtape titled "No Label" in 2012, which featured "Bando", a track that was soon labeled a "dope-boy anthem".
In 2013, Migos released their breakout single "Versace". The single was produced by Zaytoven and peaked at number 99 on the US Billboard Hot 100 chart. Later that year, Canadian rapper Drake brought the single more recognition when he remixed the song, adding a verse, which he would later perform at the 2013 iHeartRadio Music Festival. On June 13, Migos released their mixtape Y.R.N. (Young Rich N***as), which features the lead single "Versace", to critical acclaim. Brandon Soderberg of Spin gave it 8 out of 10 stars, commenting that it "is a super-cut of Dirty South vibes" and compared the three members to Gucci Mane, Soulja Boy, and Future.
On June 15, 2013, the group performed at rap radio station Hot 107.9's Birthday Bash. In October 2013, the group was featured in XXL's section "Show & Prove". "Versace" was placed in multiple year-end lists of 2013, including number three on XXL's "The 25 Best Songs of 2013", number four on Complex's "The 50 Best Songs of 2013", number five on SPIN's "50 Best Songs of 2013," number 38 on Pitchfork's "The Top 100 Tracks of 2013" and number 69 on Rolling Stone's "The 100 Best Songs of 2013." Y.R.N. (Young Rich N***as) was named the 27th-best album of 2013 and sixth-best hip-hop album of 2013 by SPIN.
Migos released their debut album Yung Rich Nation in July 2015, through Quality Control Music and 300 Entertainment. Their second album, Culture, was released in January 2017 also through both record labels, and debuted atop the US Billboard 200 chart. The group later signed a deal with Motown and Capitol Records in February 2017, and followed up the latter album with Culture II in January 2018, giving the group their second number one album in the United States.
On October 28, 2016, Migos released the first single of their new album Culture. The single was titled "Bad and Boujee". The song was produced by Metro Boomin and features vocals from fellow American rapper Lil Uzi Vert. The music video for the single was released on October 31. The single went on to top the Billboard Hot 100, becoming Migos' first number one single in the US. Their second album, Culture, was released on January 27, 2017. In April 2017, Migos were featured on Katy Perry song "Bon Appétit" from her fifth studio album, Witness.
On May 30, 2017, Migos (branded by Quality Control) released "Too Hotty" which is featured on the compilation album, Quality Control: Control the Streets Vol. 1 that was released on December 19, 2017. The single was officially released on streaming service on August 24, 2017. The music video was released on August 25.
On October 27, Migos officially released "MotorSport", the lead single off their second studio album Culture II, along with Cardi B and Nicki Minaj. The second single, "Stir Fry", was released on December 20, 2017 on the official Migos YouTube channel. The song was produced by Pharrell Williams. The song was used for the 2018 NBA All-Star Weekend. A promotional single was released on January 22, 2018, titled, "Supastars". It was produced by Honorable C.N.O.T.E., Buddah Bless, and Quavo; it was co-produced by DJ Durel. Culture II was released on January 26, 2018. The album contains twenty-four tracks, featuring production from Metro Boomin, Dun Deal, Murda Beatz, Travis Scott, Zaytoven and others.
In October 2018, Quavo stated that Culture III would be released in early 2019. The album was then delayed and re-scheduled for release in early 2020. However, the album was pushed back again, due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Quavo spoke to Billboard in March 2020, and announced the group's decision to hold off on the release of Culture III, explaining it was largely due to their inability to properly roll out the album once social distancing rules went into effect in most states in the US. Instead, the group will first release Quarantine Mixtape in the lead-up to Culture III.

Migos Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴
We fucked the world up when we dropped that Versace
It topped the chart, nigga, so add it up (fucked 'em up)
Versace, it got us an M&M
Don't believe me, fuck nigga? Then count it up
Ayy, ayy, count that money up, add it up
Ayy, run that check up, add it up
Ayy, count that knot right here, add it up
Ayy, run and go get that money over there, add it up
Ayy, go get the truckload, get the truckload, add it up
(Metro Boomin want some more)
Migo
Go
Got hundreds of Ps, they comin' in on Tonka trucks
Tonka trucks, Tonka trucks
Fuck nigga, he don't believe me, he could go add it up
Add it up, add it up, add-add it up
Add it up (add-add), add-add it up, add it up
Add it up, add it up, add it up

Add-add it up, add it up, add-add-add-add it up (yeah, yeah, Quavo, Quavo)
Add it up like a new calculator (calculator)
In the trap with two guns like I'm Tomb Raider (baow-baow)
Hop on the track with no pen or paper (go)
We blowin' up, I got that detonator (boom-boom)
You could add up the dope like accountants (add it up)
Put that dope in the water, don't drown it (drown it)
Add it up right now, bet that motherfucker (go, go)
Lookin' like a nigga livin' up on a mountain (uh)
I dreamed I woke up in Phantoms (skrrt-skrrt)
Naked bitches in the mansion (whoa, whoa)
I did my calculations, most of you rappers is imitatin'
They back on the island, I'm contemplatin'
Should I shoot to kill in my situation? (Boaw-boaw)
Mama said, "Quavo, better stay patient" (mama)
The dirt that I done, you add up the cases (woo, woo, go)
Got hundreds of Ps, they comin' in on Tonka trucks

The trap is a bakery, whippin' and cookin' (trap)
The dope, I send it straight to Canada
Young Offset trappin' in your area
Jungle fever, got the white and I marry her
I see Justin Bieber, the ghost is way scarier
Hit a jugg, fifty bags of the good cannabis (hit a jugg)
All these other conversations irrelevant (huh?)
If you ain't talkin' 'bout Benjamin Frank (who?)
Gold fingers like a trophy and banquet (gold figners)
Got the .45, turn you to a shirt paintin'
My pockets is healthy, Zanotti Giuseppe
My money is stretchin', my money athletic
Tyler Perry, makin' movies, they epic
I'm not the one from Cuba, that's my necklace (go)
Got hundreds of Ps, they comin' in on Tonka trucks
Tonka trucks, Tonka trucks
Fuck nigga, he don't believe me, he could go add it up

Fuck your management, and your manager
You is a amateur, choppa'll damage ya (grrah)
Trappin' and cappin', had to make it happen
Trapper turned rapper, my mama happy (mama)
On the block trappin', don't serve undercovers
Snakes in that grass, they gon' get you in trouble (snakes)
If I get jammed, put that on my mama
That I won't tell on my brother
In the bando and I'm countin' the fuck out the beat
Got rich off a pot and some water
Got hundreds of Ps, they comin' in on Tonka trucks
Tonka trucks, Tonka trucks
Fuck nigga, he don't believe me, he could go add it up
Add it up, add it up, add-add it up

In Migos's song Add It Up, the group boasts about their success and wealth, using counting as a metaphor for their financial success. The lyrics are intoned in a braggadocious manner and it is evident that Migos believes they have fucked the world up with their success, particularly with the release of their hit song Versace, which topped the charts. The question "Don't believe me, fuck nigga? Then count it up" serves as both a challenge and an invitation to acknowledge the group's financial success. Throughout the song, Migos also references their experiences with drug trafficking and their criminal endeavors, which they claim enabled them to become successful.
The repeated phrase "Add it up" is a representation of Migos's success, which they see as being determined by their financial status. The lyrics are a celebration of their own achievements, but it is also a reflection of black culture that has been exploited and misinterpreted by the mainstream media. Migos's aggressive, rhythmic style contrasts with their lyrics' vulnerability, which speaks to their difficult past as products of their environment.

Takeoff:
" We fucked the world up when we dropped that ' Versace '
It topped the chart, nigga. So, add it up !
' Versace, ' it got us an M&M.
Don't believe me, fuck nigga ? Then count it up.
Stealing my flow, we come to your show..
Put you on camera & we embarrass you.
Fuck your management, and your manager.
You is an amateur. Choppa will damage you.
Trappin' and cappin', had to make it happen.
Trapper turned rapper, my moma happy.
On the block trappin', don't serve undercovers.
Snakes in the grass. They gon' get you in trouble.
If I get jailed, put that on my moma.. That I won't tell on my brother.
In the bando and I'm counting the fuck out the P's.
Got rich off a pot and some water. "
Since you niggas don't understand what he's saying.
