Quavo Pushes Release Date of Takeoff’s Posthumous LP ‘Rocket Power’
“We gotta run some more tests before the rocket is ready to launch.”
Quavo has pushed back the release date of his cousin and Migos collaborator Takeoff’s posthumous LP. The Rocket Power album was originally slated to release on Friday, August 4 but will now arrive two weeks later than planned on August 18.
Just a few days ago, the rapper appeared in a video interview alongside Jamie Crawford Walker. Shared on YouTube, Quavo explained what “rocket power” meant to him.
“Just being fueled by my brother, Take, and bottling in all these emotions—all the pain, all the hard times, all the times I cried and all the times I just made music to pull up and try to play songs and he’s not there,” he said. “I’m just trying to get this fuel from above and this fuel from the sky and call it ‘rocket power.’”
On Monday, Quavo took to Instagram to share a video from the recording studio that appeared to preview the opener to one of the album’s tracks, along with a brief glimpse at what could be a music video.
“We gotta run some more tests before the rocket is ready to launch,” he captioned the Instagram post. “8/18 #RocketPower.”
Takeoff’s Rocket Power is out for release on Friday, August 18.
