The Migos wouldn’t be what they are without the presence of the third member, Takeoff. He may be the least popular of the ensemble but there is no doubt that he has played a pivotal part in establishing the group as one of the most dominant music acts in the world. With his own flamboyant personal style, the rapper has contributed to the group’s emergence as style icons, culture shapers, as well as hip-hop trend influencers. From his family background to the accomplishments of his music career, learn more about him below.
How Is Takeoff Related to Other Migos Members?
Takeoff (Kirshnik Khari Ball) is the youngest member of The Migos, he was born on the 18th of June 1994 in Lawrenceville, Georgia. He has an American nationality and African-American ethnicity. There is a paucity of details with regards to the rapper’s immediate family. He is, however, a direct relative of fellow Migos members, Quavo and Offset. Quavo is his uncle while Offset is his cousin.
These three talented young men all grew up together in Gwinnett County, Atlanta, and were raised by Takeoff’s mom (Quavo’s elder sister). As a child, Takeoff had a natural aptitude for rap, he began making beats and developing musical rhythms when he was just nine. His mind-blowing talents soon caught the attention of his two relatives and they decided to incorporate him into their musical group originally known as Polo Club.
Musical Exploits with Migos and Breakthrough
The Migos commenced their musical career in 2008 but only released their first mixtape, Jung Season, in 2011. The project did not gain much traction but the trio refused to be deterred. They passionately pursued their craft and dropped their second mixtape, No Label, in June 2012. This particular work fared much better and the group became famous throughout Atlanta.
They subsequently gained national attention after the release of their 2013 hit single, “Versace”. The song extolled their love for items from the revered Italian fashion house and reached number 99 on Billboard hot 100. It became even more popular after Drake remixed it and performed his version at several concerts.
Since this little help from Drizzy, The Migos have been on the up and up. They have released multiple albums and mixtapes, including Culture and Culture II, which both debuted atop the Billboard Top 200 Albums Chart. The group has also dropped several hit singles such as “Bad and Boujee”, “Stir Fry”, “MotorSport”, and “Walk It Talk It”.
His Contributions Towards the Success of the Group
Like other members of Migos, Takeoff is known for his crazy beats, versatility, and ability to produce groovy music out of thin air. Some detractors, however, question his contribution to the group and have even gone to the extent of dubbing him the Michelle Williams of Migos. But then, it’s a fact that he contributes a significant portion of the trap harmonies that we all relish so much.
Additionally, Takeoff played a pivotal part in steadying the ship when Offset was sent to jail. Back in April 2015, the group was arrested and charged with several offenses including possession of firearms and Marijuana. Quavo and Takeoff received plea deals and escaped jail time as they had no priors. Offset, on the other hand, had previous convictions and spent eight months in jail.
Net Worth of the Migos: How Rich Is Takeoff?
There are varying figures with regards to Takeoff’s net worth. Some sources place it at $16 million while others place it at $26 million. Whichever it is, there is no doubt that the rapper is living the good life as evidenced by his luxurious outfits. Takeoff primarily makes his fortune from his career with the Migos; the group has sold hundreds of thousands of records. They also make at least $60,000 from each public performance.
Asides from music, the Migos have tried their hands at several business ventures. They have a clothing brand known as The Migos Brand. They have also teamed up with fast-food chains, Popeyes and Uber Eats, to launch their menu. The Migos menu features four different meal options and is available in Canada and the United States.
Other Migos members, Quavo and Offset, also have an estimated net worth of $16 million apiece. The duo made their fortune from album sales, concert revenue, endorsement deals, and the group’s business ventures. Offset is business-savvy and has invested his money in several sectors including real estate and esports. The rapper has flipped as much as five houses in the city of Atlanta and has netted a tidy sum as profit.
