Who He Is
Quavious Keyate Marshall, born April 2, 1991, in Athens, Georgia, performs as Quavo and rose to fame as a founding member of the Atlanta hip-hop trio Migos alongside his cousin Offset and his nephew Takeoff. The group’s 2013 breakout single “Versace” and its Drake remix launched Migos into the mainstream, and the trio went on to popularize the triplet-flow rap style that became a defining sound of modern trap music, scoring hits including “Bad and Boujee,” “Versace,” and “Walk It Talk It.” Quavo built a parallel solo career alongside the group, releasing “Quavo Huncho” in 2018, which went platinum and peaked at number two on the Billboard 200. In November 2022, Takeoff was shot and killed outside a Houston nightclub, an event Quavo witnessed. He dedicated his 2023 solo album “Rocket Power” to his nephew’s memory, and Migos has not released new music together since. He is now managed by Scooter Braun Projects and signed with United Talent Agency for representation.
1. Migos Touring
Migos toured extensively at their commercial peak, and two consecutive years of their touring income were directly confirmed by Celebrity Net Worth’s own reporting: between September 2017 and September 2018, the group grossed $25 million from 93 shows, and between September 2018 and September 2019, they grossed $36 million. No public filing documents the group’s internal revenue split among its three members, so a near-equal three-way split is used here, consistent with the treatment applied elsewhere in this database absent documented evidence of an unequal structure.
- Confirmed peak touring years (2017-2019, two years): $61M combined group gross
- Other touring years (2013-2017 build-up and 2020-2023 reunion-era shows, estimated): ~$15M combined group gross
Combined group touring across Quavo’s career: $76M. Applying a three-way split:
Touring, personal gross share (one-third of $76M): ~$25.3M.
2. Recorded Music and Streaming
Quavo’s recorded output spans both Migos’ catalog, including the platinum-certified “Culture” trilogy, and his solo work, including the platinum “Quavo Huncho” (2018), “Only Built for Infinity Links” (2022, a collaborative album with Takeoff that debuted at number seven on the Billboard 200), and “Rocket Power” (2023, debuting at number 18). Migos and Quavo’s catalog has generated billions of cumulative streams across platforms. Given the group’s standard major-label arrangement with Quality Control Music and Motown/Capitol rather than any independent ownership structure, a conservative built estimate is used for his personal share of recorded-music income across this catalog.
Recorded music and streaming income (2013-2026): ~$30M.
3. Endorsements
Quavo and Migos built endorsement relationships with brands including Popeyes, Finish Line, Avianne & Co. Jewelers, Martell Cognac, and boohooMAN over the course of his career, spanning fashion, spirits, and jewelry categories consistent with his public image.
Endorsement income (career, blended): ~$15M.
4. Acting
Quavo has taken supporting and guest roles across television and film, including appearances on “Atlanta,” “Star,” “Black-ish,” and “Narcos: Mexico,” along with film roles in “Savage Salvation” and “Praise This.” These remain a secondary income stream relative to his music career.
Acting income (career): ~$1.5M.
5. Business Ventures
Quavo holds a co-ownership stake, alongside several other investors including former NFL player Marshawn Lynch, in the Glacier Boyz, a team in the Fan Controlled Football league, an interactive arena-style football league launched in 2020. No disclosed valuation exists for this stake. He has also been associated with a YRN-branded apparel line, though no verified revenue or valuation figures are publicly available for it. Consistent with the rule that business assets require an arm’s-length valuation to be counted, both are excluded from the waterfall.
- Glacier Boyz (Fan Controlled Football) ownership stake: excluded (no disclosed valuation)
- YRN apparel: excluded (no verified revenue or valuation)
6. Representation
Quavo is managed by Scooter Braun Projects and represented by United Talent Agency for booking. A standard music-industry blended representation rate is applied across his combined income.
Representation (25% blended on $71.83M combined gross): -$17.96M.
7. Tax
Quavo is based in Georgia, where the state levies a flat income tax alongside federal obligations, producing a blended effective rate for high earners somewhat below the top rates seen in states like California or New York.
Tax (39% blended on $53.87M post-representation): -$21.0M.
Combined gross across all sources totals $71.83M. After representation (-$17.96M) and tax (-$21.0M), approximately $32.87M remains before lifestyle burn and documented liabilities.
8. Lifestyle Burn and Documented Liabilities
Quavo’s consumed spending has scaled with his career, and unlike most artists in this database, two specific documented financial liabilities apply directly against his current net worth rather than sitting only in the background.
- Early Migos era (2013-2017, 4 years, rising fame): ~$300K/yr = $1.2M
- Peak Migos/Culture era (2018-2020, 3 years, documented luxury purchases including a Rolls-Royce Cullinan, McLaren 720S, and a $250,000 diamond grill): ~$1.5M/yr = $4.5M
- Post-Takeoff solo era (2021-2026, 6 years, continued lifestyle spending, expanded team): ~$1.8M/yr = $10.8M
In addition to consumed lifestyle spending, two documented one-time liabilities reduce his current net worth directly:
- A Las Vegas civil jury verdict ordered Quavo to pay a former limo/valet driver $682,000 following a physical altercation lawsuit.
- In January 2026, the IRS filed a federal tax lien against Quavo for nearly $2.9 million in unpaid federal income taxes across tax years 2021, 2022, and 2023, according to documents obtained by TMZ. This remains an outstanding liability as of this writing.
Total lifestyle burn: ~$16.5M. Documented liabilities: ~$3.58M. Available to accumulate: ~$12.79M.
9. Catalog (Held Asset)
Quavo’s ongoing personal share of Migos and solo catalog royalties represents a held asset separate from the income already collected above. Because his catalog sits under a standard major-label structure without the elevated personal ownership seen in independently structured artist deals, a more modest multiple is applied than for artists with direct masters ownership.
Catalog, held asset (7x multiple on ~$1M/yr estimated personal share): ~$7M.
10. Real Estate
No purchase price or current valuation has been publicly confirmed for any specific Quavo-owned property despite general references to a “real estate portfolio” in some coverage. Consistent with the rule that real estate requires a documented purchase price to calculate a gain, no value is claimed here.
Real estate: $0 (no documented purchase prices).
11. Wealth Management
No disciplined investment program or wealth manager has been publicly documented for Quavo. Default applies.
Wealth Management: None reported ($0).

Why Our Figure Matches Consensus
Unlike most calculations in this database, our independent build lands almost exactly where Celebrity Net Worth already has Quavo, at $20 million. That convergence isn’t a coincidence of rounding; it reflects two real, documented drags on his net worth that don’t apply to most artists we cover. A January 2026 federal tax lien shows Quavo owes the IRS nearly $2.9 million in unpaid taxes across three consecutive years, a debt that directly reduces his current net worth rather than sitting in the background as a historical footnote. A civil jury verdict in a separate lawsuit added a further $682,000 payout. Layered on top of that, Migos’ catalog and touring scale, while genuinely large during the group’s 2017 to 2019 peak, never reached the tier of hip-hop’s true elite earners, and Quavo’s share is split three ways with no documented premium structure the way some artists in this database have negotiated. The result is a case where our line-by-line approach and a consensus estimate happen to agree, for reasons that are fully visible in the math rather than assumed.
The Uncle Who Outlived the Group
Quavo, Offset, and Takeoff were never just a rap trio; they were literally family, an uncle-nephew-cousin unit that built one of the defining sounds of the 2010s out of Gwinnett County, Georgia. When Takeoff was killed in November 2022, Quavo didn’t just lose a groupmate, he lost the person he calls his nephew, and “Rocket Power,” the album he released the following year, reads less like a comeback than a eulogy set to a beat. What the math in this calculation shows isn’t a story of a career in decline. It’s a portrait of an artist whose peak years were real and well documented, but whose net worth today also has to account for things most celebrity wealth trackers ignore entirely: an active IRS lien and a jury verdict, both a matter of public record, both still outstanding as of this writing.
