Atlanta trap trio Migos have been the kings of club bangers since their 2013 mixtape, Y.R.N. Young Rich Niggas, with their seemingly endless stream of vocal hooks over simple yet infectious beats. Their staccato cadences are instantly recognizable, and have even inspired Drake to try his hand at their flow in a remix of their single "Versace." While some have rightfully pointed out that each Migos song blends into the last, their familiar sound also contains an absolute self-awareness and some overlooked humor (just see the Christmas carol intro to "Hannah Montana"). The repetitious vocal hook of "Versace" finds itself in just about every song on Young Rich Niggas, and why not? (Try to find a word that sounds better coming out of your mouth.) After a major-label debut with last year's Yung Rich Nation, Migos released a sequel mixtape to Y.R.N. last month, and it's more of the same pop/hip-hop, with a laundry list of callouts to people copying their flow and fashion.
