AceShowbiz - It looks like the Atlanta Falcons has just got a new anthem. Migos shows their love to their city's biggest trap group by teaming up with Champ Sports for a track titled "11 Birds". The bouncy track has been premiered along with its accompanying video and it features Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Julio Jones.
The three-minute clip follows the hip-hop group and the football athlete playing football on the streets, chilling in a studio, grabbing lunch in a diner and dancing with kids. "Here go the birds/ Here go the birds/ Have you ever seen birds on the field play?/ Have you ever seen champions, 'cause we know game," Quavo sings on the hook.
"11 Birds" is the third part of Sport Champs' "The Moment" series. One member of Migos, Quavo, also appeared in the first installment. He joined forces with T.I. on a track titled "Baller Alert" which was inspired by Brandon Marshall. Meanwhile, the second part featured Desiigner and Dak Prescott on a song called "Outlet".
"I'm excited to feature my city in the Champs Sports campaign 'The Moment', including a music video inspired by my personal journey in life and football, accompanied by a newly released track from my good friends, Migos," Julio told Billboard via e-mail.
"Filming and recording 'The Moment' with Champs Sports and Under Armour and our good friend Julio Jones was special. We believe we are part of a movement today, and expressing ourselves in our own way is what this campaign is all about," Migos added in a statement. "The UA Threadborne Shift stands for those who take the lead on their own terms. It's pushing boundaries between style and performance, just like we are pushing and taking the lead with our music."
In addition, 2017 seems to be a busy year for Migos. Just the past weekend, the renowned hip-hop group appeared in three new songs: Sean Paul's "Body", DJ Khaled's "I'm the One" and Katy Perry's "Bon Appetit". In a recent interview with Tim Westwood, the group announced that their new album is on the way and their labelmate Lil Yachty would have a big role in it. "Compilation is on the way," Offset said. "Us and the Boat, sir, you know what I'm sayin'. The QC way." Although they haven't revealed a release date, Quavo hinted, "This summer going crazy."
The Atlanta group also confirmed their collaboration with One Direction star Liam Payne. "I just came from a video," said Quavo. "You know my boy Liam, from One Direction, we just shot that. You know, crazy vid, crazy visuals." He added, "I wasn't even supposed to say that. It's going to be a surprise though."
