What wins most unnecessary feature of the year? Not to be confused with worst. Who needed that Q verse on 2 On?

Migos, Better than the Beatles (Fader Cover Story)

Migos started to make big moves while Offset was away. The first was signing with Quality Control Music, an independent label co-founded by Pierre "Pee" Thomas and Kevin "Coach K" Lee, an Atlanta powerbroker who had previously made stars out of Young Jeezy and Gucci Mane. It was Coach K who brought about Migos' other big move: going into business with another label, New York's 300 Entertainment. 300 was started in 2013 by former Warner Music Group CEO Lyor Cohen, one of the industry's most influential executives, and two of his longtime associates, Todd Moscowitz and Kevin Liles. Called the "Moneyball" of record labels in a Forbes article about its launch, they received $5 million in investment capital from Google and landed a data-sharing agreement with Twitter. In late March of 2014, less than a year after the release of "Versace," Quality Control signed a deal that put 300 in charge of promoting and distributing Migos' music.

Migos has been running on rocket fuel ever since. In 2014, they scored two more Hot 100 singles, the rambunctious "Fight Night" and the pouty but pretty "Handsome and Wealthy." Like "Versace" before them, both of these ultra-hooky, buoyant radio hits originated on a free mixtape released months earlier—in this case, No Label 2—a feat that was once practically unheard-of. With 300's help, both songs charted higher than "Versace" ever did, and on the strength of those successes, the group now performs between two and four times a week, earning a fee of $40,000 per show. In February, they're scheduled to release their debut album; according to Coach K, 300 will collect roughly 30 percent of the royalties in exchange for their services, and Migos and Quality Control will keep the rest while retaining full ownership of the masters.

I think the Q verse is pretty well placed to add variety to the song. It's not a great verse, but it has it's purpose.

Most unnecessary feature is probably Birdman on the entirety of Rich Gang, maybe Rocky on Crib In My Closet (sucks all the energy out of the song).

"Good Kid Mad City is the most impactful album of the past decade" (c) Rosenberg

Rosenberg comes across as the Skip Baseless of hip-hop to the extent that he has his guys that are a part of his good hip-hop narrative.

He's an idiot. A decently educated hip hop head knows it's either Flockaveli or 808s & Heartbreak.

I don't really mind Charlamagne and Ebro compared to Rosenberg...like at least they're playing a character and are just messing around. Rosenberg is like the resident cheerleader.

The only time I really liked him on a show was when Kevin Hart was clowning on him.

A 6 minute migos song lies somewhere between 'someone stepping on my dick with cleats on' and 'farting blood 5 times an hour' on the list of things I would want to experience.
