Were Migos victims of racial profiling?
According to TMZ, Migos were involved in an incident with Delta Airlines, who reportedly kicked off Takeoff—and in succession Quavo, Offset, and their road manager—for a safety issue.
Their manager tells TMZ that Takeoff’s book bag was on the floor, and not in the overhead or under the front seat as instructed. Migos were exhausted and fell asleep in their first class seating, seemingly unaware what was going on when the flight attendant was trying to inform them to tuck Takeoff’s bag away.
His manager explains the plane continued to taxi to the runaway, but the pilot decided to remove them after finding out their bag was still on the floor.
In the video above, you can hear their manager talking with a Delta agent trying to understand what happened. Then, he threatens to sue Delta for missing their show and claims the incident was an act of racial profiling.
A Delta spokesman told TMZ:
None
Migos are scheduled to perform at 7 Flags in Clive, Iowa at 10 pm.
Earlier this year, Offset made news headlines for reportedly getting kicked off an American Airlines flight for using his cellphone. He took the issue on Instagram in an angrily recorded video claiming to fly private next time, which has now been deleted.
