2022: Formation and debut studio album 

In 2022, hip hop group Migos, of whom Quavo and Takeoff are a part of, was rumored to have broken up after Quavo's ex-girlfriend Saweetie had reportedly slept with Offset. Quavo alluded to the rift in the duo's song "Messy" and in an interview where he insinuated Offset's lack of loyalty. In May 2022, Quavo and Takeoff released their first track "Hotel Lobby (Unc & Phew)" under the Unc & Phew moniker amid rumors of their rap group Migos' disbandment. In July 2022, they released their single "Us vs. Them" with American rapper Gucci Mane. In August 2022, they released a single with American rapper Birdman titled "Big Stunna". In September 2022, they announced their debut studio album Only Built for Infinity Links with an October 2022 release date. In an interview with Complex, the duo claimed to have "studied legendary rap duos of old throughout the album’s conception, and paid homage to them in the cover art and title". Also in September 2022, they released what would be the fourth single for their album titled "Nothing Changed". On October 31, 2022, a day prior to Takeoff's death, they released the music video for their song "Messy". On November 1, 2022, Takeoff was shot and killed while with Quavo and others at a Houston bowling alley. Discography
