Migos may be bad and boujee, but the pilot of the airplane that was supposed to take them to Barcelona didn't care about any of that when Offset, Quavo, and the ironically named Takeoff were late for their flight. As a result, the rap trio never did take off and won't be performing at Primavera Sound Friday night (June 1) like scheduled.
Although the last-minute cancellation is sure to put a damper on fans' festival experience, English rapper/producer Skepta stepped in to save the day and will be performing in place of Migos. The Spanish festival broke the news via Twitter. "We regret to inform that Migos will not perform at Primavera Sound," the festival wrote. "The members of the band have missed their flight to Barcelona, in their spot we are pleased to announce that Skepta, the king of grime, joins the festival’s lineup."

It really is amazing that Migos' Offset was up for flying at all, let alone performing, after suffering injuries from a car accident just two weeks ago. The accident was so bad that it totaled his Dodge Challenger and he had to be rushed to the hospital. A good samaritan by the name of Jamar helped the rapper seek medical attention, and as a thank you Offset bought him a new car.
