* ''Only Built For Infinity Links'' (Quavo and Takeoff) (2022) (also the final project Takeoff would be involved with during his lifetime)[[/folder]]

* TheAllegedBoss: Quavo often carries himself as the boss of the trio, as he often speaks on behalf of the trio in most interviews. However, it appears they all treat each other as equals.

** Takeoff lets us know his momma told him the importance of drinking water in his guest appearance on ASAP Ferg's "Back Hurt."

* BoastfulRap: Literally 98% of their songs. Exceptions are EXTREMELY rare.

* ColdHam: Takeoff is the most even-tempered and mellow one out of the trio but has the 2nd loudest catchphrases and gives the most adlibs after Quavo.

* DeadArtistsAreBetter: Takeoff talked about wanting to be acknowledged more while he is still alive and relevant. Unfortunately, he had more people acknowledge how good he is as a rapper after his passing.
* DrugsAreGood: [[AvertedTrope Averted]]. Despite talking about cooking, selling, and doing drugs, unlike their contemporaries, they remain neutral, not talking about the negative or positive side effects of doing these things.

* FunPersonified: Even though he is considered a gangsta rapper, Quavo often gives a light hearted fun style to the gangsta lyrics.

* HeterosexualLifePartners: Quavo and Travis Scott as explained in their song, “Eye 2 Eye.” Quavo and Takeoff fall into this trope too since they knew each other longer than they knew Offset.
* JiveTurkey: They are also known for their use of their own slang even making the term "Bando" popular. They created a lot of slang terms used by many of the American youth in the 2010s.
* TheLancer: Offset plays into this role, as he has the second most guest features.
* LargeHam: Quavo often gives very energetic and loud vocals on every song he is featured in and he often stretches out the duration of short words in ad-libs.

* LyricalTic: Like most trap rappers, they utilize ad-libs frequently. Unlike other trap rappers, though, they don’t usually reuse the same ad-libs, with a few exceptions.

* NoIndoorVoice: Quavo is easily the loudest member of the group and he is often the loudest one in every song.
%%* PowerTrio
* TheSmartGuy: Takeoff is looked at in this light since he is technically the best rapper out the group and usually the only member of the group who stays out of trouble outside of music.
%%* SoulBrotha: The trio began to be seen in this way after the release of their first album Culture.

%%* WolverinePublicity: Quavo appears in more advertisements and in more song features than any other member of the group. He is the only member of the group that is on all of the group discography.

Quavo and Offset made amends in the spring of 2023, performing a medley of "Hotel Lobby" and "Bad & Boujee" as a tribute to Takeoff at the Creator/BET Awards. In spite of the reunion, the two have no plans to release more music together.

Migos have widely credited across several media outlets as one of the most influential hip hop acts of the 2010s. Most notably, they made the triplet flow the style du jour, which was later dubbed "the Migos flow" in spite of having been used prominently for decades, especially in the Memphis, Tennessee rap scene.

Migos were a hip hop trio originating from Atlanta, Georgia consisting of rappers Quavo, Offset, and Takeoff. They became major figures in the rap scene in 2013 with the success of their hit single “Versace,” which was followed by a string of mostly well-received mixtapes and their debut album, ''Yung Rich Nation''. They skyrocketed to the mainstream with their single "Bad & Boujee" from their critically and commercially successful sophomore 2017 album ''Culture''.

Migos is a hip hop trio originating from Atlanta, Georgia. The group’s members are Quavo, Offset, and Takeoff. They blew up in 2013 off of the success of their hit single, “Versace”. They continue to release music together and separately to this day.

* BadassFamily: The 3 of them are all related to each other.

* DanceSensation: Their single Dab on em was a dance crazed that swept America in the mid-10s and was made popular by football player Cam Newton but the dance was created by them.

* HeterosexualLifePartners: Quavo and Travis Scott as explained in their song, “Eye 2 Eye”.Quavo and TakeOff fall into this trope too since they knew each other longer than they knew Offset, since Offset is their cousin and they are uncle and nephew and the group was originally going to only contain Quavo and TakeOff at first.
* JackOfAllStats: Offset, he is not the best of the group when it comes to hooks but he is the second best one out of the group when it comes to hooks. Not the best rapper out of the group but he is easily the second best out of the group when it comes to rapping. The only area he comes last in is ad-libs.

* TheLancer: Offset plays into this role since he usually is the second one of the members on the most features.

* TheSmartGuy: [=TakeOff=] is looked at in this light since he is technically the best rapper out the group and usually the only member of the group who stays out of trouble outside of music.
* SoulBrotha: The trio are finally looked at in this way after the release of their first album Culture.

* TagalongKid: [[InvertedTrope Inverted]]. While Takeoff was the youngest member of the group, 3 years younger than Quavo and Offset, he was the catalyst that led to the group's formation.

* TheNew10s: Arguably the best band of that decade.

* UncleTomFoolery: Many people looked at them in this light in the beginning of their career because of their repetitive and simple lyrics people considered mumble rap.
* WolverinePublicity: Quavo appears in more advertisements and in more song features than any other member of the group and he is the only member of the group that is on all of the group discography.
* YokoOhNO: Downplayed since this happened to them after their peak in their careers. Fans blame Cardi B (Offset's wife) for breaking up the band but this is also subverted since they did make a hit song with her years before the breakup.
