There was a time in 2017 when Migos were accused of jumping the late XXXTentacion, resulting in a viral clip where a bruised X claims, "These n****s were scared to fight me!" Now, Offset and Takeoff are opening up about their feelings toward him…

The beef between Migos and XXXTentacion started that same year after X famously accused Drake of stealing his spraying flow from "Look At Me!" and recording the 'More Life' cut "KMT."

X tweeted, "Drake a p***y n***a money don't buy you respect" and "Drake's career is almost over, he better start investing money into real estate cause once it's all over he really gonna see the 'Fake Love,'" among other disses.

Offset then decided to defend Drake via IG Live: "You n****s is silly," he said at the time. "How you unheard of talking about a n***a stole your swag? We ain't even heard of you."

He continued, "Get your ass out of jail and run that s**t up, whatever your name is. Trippin'." (X had just been released from prison, facing charges of aggravated battery and more.)

Roughly a month later in May 2017, Offset commented that rappers like Lil Uzi and SahBabii "look lame" for their use of upside-down crosses. X took offense, too, so he fired back, "Tell this p***y n***a Offset to get off a n***a d**k!" The alleged jumping outside of X's Los Angeles hotel happened that November.

While Offset shared a "RIP" on his IG Story following X's passing in June 2018, he hasn't talked about him much since. But in a new interview with Montreality, the 29-year-old referred to him as a "great artist," adding, "Shout out bro. Legend. Rest his soul, man."

The normally reserved Takeoff also offered his thoughts, making the group's opinion of X clear. "It's all love with X, you know what I'm sayin'? X is a legend. Ain't no bad blood with X. I don't know where they get that from, social media is crazy. It's all love man."
