Welcome to Seven Questions or Less, a series on Dime in which we ask people from the world of music to talk about their basketball fandom. Recently we chatted with Quavo during All-Star weekend in Chicago. The Migos star is always busy, as he says, “This weekend I have six parties, and I’m playing in the celeb game, not to mention a halftime performance.” Other than the HOME by Martell x BET party, he was pretty much everywhere in the Windy City, including supporting Hawks PG Trae Young during the Three-Point Contest on Saturday night.
On his work with Martell, Quavo says, “I enjoy good cognac and I wanted to be unapologetic, and Martell just fits my character.”
Quavo didn’t take home Celeb Game MVP honors this year, but did honor Kobe with custom shoes memorializing Mamba and Gigi.
