In an interview with Billboard, Migos attempted to clear the air concerning controversial comments they made about iLoveMakonnen's sexuality earlier this year. Quavo said their new record "Slide" with Calvin Harris and a certain openly bisexual artist proves they aren't homophobic.
"I got a record with Frank Ocean. That closes my case," he said.
