Migos rapper Quavo alongside Vice President of the United States on Tuesday hosted a one day summit on gun violence as the Atlanta hip hop star marked what would have been his nephew Takeoff’s 30th birthday.
The de@th of Takeoff, a fellow Migos rapper who was sh0t and k1lled in Houston in 2022, has inspired his uncle and their family to start the Rocket Foundation to work to help funnel money to organisations on the ground already working to decrease community violence.
“We want to make sure that we get these organisations that want to do something about it funded,” Quavo said. “In music we say ‘the plug.’ So I just want to be the plug to the community and help change.”
Harris praised the Grammy-nominated rapper for his work to combat gun vi0lence, a policy area she has been tasked by President Joe Biden with taking point on as Congress has largely failed to pass gun control legislation and the Supreme Court has rolled back federal and state regulations.
However, this gained the attention of social media users as they criticised Quavo gun vi0lence summit.
