Migos Living the Thug Life Too Literally?

Two members of the Atlanta rap trio Migos were arrested following the group's appearance at Georgia Southern University's Spring Bling concert Saturday night. The "Versace" rappers were in the middle of their set when the stage manager told the DJ to cut the concert short because the police had arrived on scene.

Upon leaving the stage, Migos' Quavo, Offset, Takeoff and their entourage were immediately questioned by authorities. Soon after, Quavo and Offset were arrested for felony possession of cocaine, Oxycontin and codeine plus charges of carrying a loaded weapon in a school zone, TMZ reports.

According to the Bulloch ...s database, both Quavo (real name: Quavious Marshall) and Offset (real name: Kiari Cyphus) were arrested, booked and charged with four counts apiece. In Quavo's case, he was charged with three felonies – possession of a schedule II controlled substance, possession of a firearm and carrying a weapon in a school zone – as well a misdemeanor marijuana charge.

Offset was given two felonies (possession of a firearm by convicted felon, carrying a weapon in a school zone) and two misdemeanors (marijuana less than an ounce, possession of schedule II controlled substance). Several members of Migos' entourage were also booked. According to the Bulloch Sheriff Department, Quavo and Offset remain in custody pending a bond hearing. Following the arrest, Migos tweeted "#Fuck12."

Rolling Stone recently spoke to the emerging rap group about their first proper LP, Y.R.N.: Tha Album. "We're proving longevity and versatility, and that we can actually sell records," Offset said. The trio has such a fervent following after their steady stream of mixtapes that memes exist boasting...he Beatles. "Why wouldn't it be better than the Beatles?" Offset said. "They're legends, but we're legends too now. Quavo was just saying he wanted to meet Paul McCartney, so nothing against them. But they saying we better, so it is what it is."

What's this supposed to mean? Just because they don't have a European name, then it's "ghetto". Sounds bigoted to me.

You can take a black guy to Nashville from right out of the cotton fields with bib overalls, and they will call him R&B. You can take a white guy in a pin-stripe suit who’s never seen a cotton field, and they will call him country. ~ O. B. McClinton

If someone thinks that a person needs a white name, then that's their problem. Why is a white name like Michael correct? The names Michael & Mary does not make someone smarter.

They are not ghetto, because they are non white, the names Quavious and Kiara are not African or cultural, they are made up onomatepoeic shit done by ignorant ass people with no understanding of providing a future for their kids.

.

Imagine Quavius Keyatz trying to get a job - "No no no, thats Keyatz not key ats" Ivy League student, it don't even sound like the name of a High School Graduate. Remember the Black murderers with names like DeMarquise Elkins who murdered a 2 year old white boy and a guy called Adrianous Blackeyes who murdered a white child for no reason.

.

Call me racist if you like, but why do these people have these crazy ass names.

Mark Chapman, Charles Manson, Ted Bundy, James Holmes, John Wilkes Booth, Bonnie & Clyde, Griselda Blanco, Andrea Yates, etc.

The names are not ignorant, the people who are prejudiced against the names are or making stereotypes about the people with them. It is no different than looking at the names Hernandez and Rodriguez and think they mow grass and pick fruit. It is crazy to you because they are not white names. Why is Brad not a crazy name? How do you know I don't have a "ghetto" name? It's definitely not Micky. You would be insulting me and my mother then.

Well since I'm the one that brought up the name thing I should probably say, I was just reacting to the names themselves. Key & Peele have done multiple sketches where they give up and coming football players the most most over-the-top names. No offense intended.

I must lead a sheltered life, I had never really run into Americans with names like that before seeing that.

I grew up around these names so they're not unusual to me, and I've never lived in a ghetto. I have relatives with these kind of names and my moms folks are from the country, not a "hood". Others had the 'Tammy Sue' type names too, which are common in rural areas. Until the 11th grade, I went to schools that were 98% black, and many kids had them. Some of these names are not new, they've been around for decades. But they probably picked up more in the afrocentric days in the late 1960s and early 1970s, when some blacks in the US were rejecting white slave names, and not all of them wanted Nation Of Islam style names like Abdullah & Muhammad. Some of them originated from Louisiana Creole folks, especially the French sounding ones like LaQuintha & Lasean.

An onomatopoeia is a word that is spelled the same way it is said like "Boom" "Bang". So names like Boomshika and Labootishaka are onomatopoeic. Studies have shown people who call their kids such names are likely to be under 21, uneducated, known to law authorities, like debased hip hop and rap music and most likely be low class and Black.

.

I mean how many white and Asian Shaniquas or Laquishas do you know. How many white people even have names with sha, la, de, key, ma, tre or niqua, nique or isha, iqua in them. Very very few. Yes it is not just blacks, you get white trash with names like Piney Jo, Willadene, Billy Bob, Rickywayne, Ruthiemae. But these names are at least shorter for real names, Billy Bob is William Robert, Rickywayne is Richard Wayne etc.

.

What does Shaniqua stand for or is short for and what about the made up names like Sharkisha, Cashmonae, Adrianous, Starshieka, La Tarian, Darealyst, Airwrecka stand for? Well you only hear of them on the news and it is not for good things people with such names have done. The names make no sense, I mean what is a Bonquiqui? sounds like the mix of a French lolly and a dogs name. Dumb ass people love making these rhymey names that can be sung out, such as the 15 year old Girl who called her baby Kimeisha Sharifa Ladougie Jenkin after the Teach me how to Dougie song. And the other girl who called her baby Syntheea because her 6th grade education did not extend to the word Cynthia.

.

My guess is that Quavious's mother was not a alumni at Georgia Tech, and the same goes for Latylenol Houston, Marques Houston's mother. Seriously folks, don't give your kids these ignorant ass ghetto names.

.

There is nothing French or African about names like Laquintha, the La may be French or Spanish, but the Quintha is some made up pseudo Pig Latin/Ebonics shit. These names are only cultural in the disadvantaged and uneducated Black ghetto experience. They come out of mostly ignorant (Uneducated and social limited) parents and a few folks who like new agey names. Even if they give conventional names, they will mess up the spelling deliberately like Vaguana or Vernessa or Vamessa for Vanessa. Why they think, to be different, but in reality it makes them look dumb.

You don't make sense anyway. All names are made up, they didn't just appear out of thin air. That includes names for things. Rocks, bears, clouds, and grass didn't name themselves. Someone made up a word for them.

Well if the shoe fits, likely means many of the people who call this kids niqua names are, but not all. Besides what about your name, Mickey Dolenz a contraction of a 1960s Boy band member? My handle is at least two Prince songs joined together without spelling changes. Plus your threatening tone in your replies, leads me to think you may be ghetto and swinging your head at me like "Uh huh" snap snap etc.

.

Please prove me wrong!

I changed no spellings. That's how he spells it. If you're so smart like you claim, then you'd know that. I don't have to prove anything to a bigot. Maybe you should join a Bill O'Reilly or Ted Nugent site.

Using Prince as an example makes no sense either, since he spells words "eye", "U", "4", etc. He's also rapped and used rappers on his songs. Andre 3000 said Prince & Paul McCartney was backstage at one of the OutKast concerts last year. So I guess Prince must be "ghetto". Is Prince a common name with white people and Asians, or Dweezil Zappa & Zowie Bowie for that matter. There's rappers in countries all over the world by people of many races & ethnicities. Breakdancing and locking is popular in Japan. So you're saying all of these folks are ghetto and ignorant.

Yeah. I hate the rap and hip hop culture. It has held Blacks back since the early 1990s. 1980s Rap and Hip Hop culture (B Boying, graffiti, groups like Run DMC) was great, but the rot stepped in with gangsta rap and all the phony materialism that came with it. Unlike you, I am not sucked in to the agenda of the Illuminati which pushes hip hop culture at the unchosen masses.

.

Between the advent of NWA in 1987 and Snoop Dogg in 1993, Rap changed to the materialistic gun toting, pimp and hos, wanna be a banger shit we see today. In the mid 90s in comes the materialism and diamonds, ice labels etc. Now we have people like Migos a group of ghetto thugs with ghetto ass names becoming famous over a song the repeats the same word over and over again. We see indigenous people around the world and other Blacks/Islanders/Maoris etc imitating this degenerative thug shit all over the world. You hear stuff like 5 year Black kids taking guns to school to shoot other people. I mean graffiti and tagging only became an issue once the first Dr Dre Album was issued here finally in early 1994.

.

Its bad because teenagers and impressionable people with low IQs seek to emulate this stuff. When in fact Rap and Hip Hop culture was invented by the Illuminati to spread to the unchosen groups to destroy themself. Thug life songs and the hoodrat culture engenders feelings oflow self esteem and worth and suicidal negative tendencies of wanting to kill yourself and others. In the mid 80s the Illuminati saw the power that positive rap music had on minorities and thius decided to infiltrate with it negative music expressing ideas of gangster lifestyles, misogyny and drug fuelled, crass meterialistic lifestyles so that Black and Hispanic children would eventually kill themselves and make others die. A more indirect route helped with the introduction and savge punitive measures of crack, that would at least incarcerate the ones they could not kill.

.

So yeah Mickey Dolenz go on defending your Killuminati musicians. When people give their kids ghetto names, then you know the Illuminati's agenda is working. They hire people, often Black and poor with not much intellect to make songs about shooting people, gang feuds, drugs production and usage, treating women like dirt and calling them bitches and hos, songs cheering and praising prestige brands, run by wealthy Europeans who do not give a flying fuck about Black people. The singers themselves are slaves of the Iluminati, the videos are full of OK masonic signs, Pyramids with eyes and pacts with the "Rain man" - THE Devil. Why do their careers only last a few years and do most of them end up in jail. Look into the deaths of Michael Jackson and Old Dirty Bastard, killed off by the Illuminati. Jay Z and Beyonce have longer careers because they are eager slaves ofthe Illuminati.

.

Open your eyes to these outrages on the Black race.

This picture shows they are illuminati slaves, notice the eye on the middle one's shirt, the hand sign of two fingers is the horn of Baphomet.

Pyramid shapes in the trains, if squinted at the three guys make an all seeing eye as well. Yes they have served the Illuminati well.
