Glover went on to describe the hip-hop trio Migos as “The Beatles of this generation” claiming that he didn’t think “they get a lot of respect beyond Atlanta,” Glover continued stating that “There’s a generation of kids that are growing up on something that’s completely separate from a whole group of people. That song [‘Bad And Boujee’] is just fly. There’s no better song to have sex to.”
