Quavo and Kendrick Perkins haven’t been getting along.
The Migos star and former NBA champion have had some very public disagreements recently. Back in 2018, the rapper took a shot on the song “F*** 12,” rapping “Get no playing time, Kendrick Perkins.”
Over the past week, their feud has resurfaced. It resulted in some pretty nasty Twitter jabs, including Perkins dissing Quavo’s ability as a solo artist.
Thank God you’re back with the Migos because this photoshop uppercut is as close as you’ll ever get to a hit as a solo artist! Carry on… https://t.co/nVOrvsaLIA

The two finally brought their feud to TV.
Rather than continuing their beef through texts, Quavo and Perk decided to settle things on live television yesterday. They settled things on ESPN’s First Take with Stephen A. Smith and Max Kellerman, where Perkins is a frequent guest analyst.
Quavo explained his reasoning for mentioning him in the past. He defended his bars, saying he was “just stating facts.” The lyrics were in reference to his time with LeBron James and the Cleveland Cavaliers late in his career.
Perk responded with reminders that he was a big part of the Boston Celtics’ 2008 championship team. He also brought up some impressive stat lines that he had over his career.
On a happy note, the two seemed to squash their beef once and for all as the conversation came to a close. Perkins let it be known, “It’s no beef,” while Quavo stated, “We all came from nothing, Big Perk, you know that. We all came from nothing, and we here today.”
The exchange came just ahead of the release of Culture III, the fourth studio album by Migos.
