Quavo appears to be responding to Nicki’s “Barbie Dreams” with his own song “Huncho Dreams.”
Quavo just came through and released his long awaited solo album, Quavo Huncho, and it’s a monster. The project contains a whopping 19 songs in total and features guest appearances fro some of the biggest name in music, including Drake, Travis Scott, Kid Cudi, Cardi B, Madonna, and of course Migos bandmates Takeoff & Offset, among others. While there are several standout cuts from the project, there’s one track in particular that’s already raising eyebrows, and thats track #3 “Huncho Dreams,” which looks to be a response to Nicki’s “Barbie Dreams.”
Quavo appears to be addressing his alleged relationship with Nicki Minaj on the song, rapping several clues throughout the track. Quavo starts out by spitting, “She said I hurt her feelings 52 times (Two),” which is in reference to Nicki telling Zane Lowe she was hurt by the whole “Motorsport” fiasco. He the continues on mentioning Nicki’s name and referencing their collab “For Keeps,” among other things.
“Call up queen (Nicki)
The queen can’t flex on a young bull (Flex)
Made her scream (Scream)
Chanel, I bought her two of ’em
You can check IG (Hey, IG)
‘Cause when she post, it go up (Go)
Is she for keeps? (For keeps)”
As Complex points out, “Young bull” is a Philly phrase used quite often by Meek Mill, Nicki’s ex-boyfriend. And if that’s still not enough, Quavo also references Nicki’s name later in the verse, actually flipping Drake’s “In My Feelings” and spitting, “Nicki, Nicki, do you love me? (Please)/Why you crying? (Why?).”
Take a listen to the song for yourself (below) and be sure to check out some of the reactions from fans on twitter as well.

If Barbie Dreams can be taken as good hip hop fun and not as Nicki talking about how she actually fucked every nigga that raps, why can’t y’all just treat Huncho Dreams the same?
Ah, misogyny.
More specifically misogynoir.— 20DaysofJune (@20daysofJune) October 12, 2018
