Memphis rapper Lil Migo quickly rose through the trap underground with his solid flows and weighty bass-driven beats on 2021 mixtapes King of the Trap and its sequel, King of the Trap 2. Born and raised in the northside of Memphis, Migo was originally inspired to rap by a school friend. After a brief spell in college, Migo decided to focus full-time on music and started to work his way through the Memphis trap underground. Debuting in 2018 with the release of "Gotta Be Dumb," Migo went on to release a slew of tracks, before issuing his debut mixtape, 2020's Voice of the Trap. Collaborations with the likes of Moneybagg Yo and Blac Youngsta saw his profile rise and in 2021 he'd secured a deal with Universal label CMG. His debut for the label, King of the Trap, was issued the same year and saw him teaming up with Yo Gotti, 42 Dugg, Rich the Kid, and his previous collaborators Blac Youngsta and Moneybagg Yo. Just a few months later, Migo dropped the follow-up, King of the Trap 2, which saw him expand his guest list, this time to include collabs with Quavo and OG Da Juiceman.
