Yesterday was the highly anticipated release of Atlanta rap trio Migos’ third studio album, Culture II. It has 24 songs and features a range of artists from Cardi B, Nicki Minaj, Post Malone, Big Sean, and Drake. Although I wouldn’t consider myself a Migos fan, many of friends and social media followers describe themselves as fans, and they have been a trending topic on my personal feed since Friday morning.

The group had many popular singles released from the album including “MotorSport” (October 27, 2017), “Stir Fry” (December 20, 2017), and just days before the official album release, “Superstars” (January 22, 2018).
They used various means of social media to create hype for the album release. So, of course, it was only right to go to social media to see what people were saying.
There were some good ones, where some people were defending the good name that is Migos:

And there were also a couple of fans and followers who were not impressed and slightly disappointed:

To many people’s surprise, another piece dropped the same day: D6 Reloaded from rapper Lil Wayne. From the voices on Twitter, people seemed to have taken a better liking to this mixtape than Culture II:
