Background and composition
[edit | edit source]Caitlin White of Stereogum described the song as "built off an impossibly fast Migos-flow trademarked hook, burbling synthesizers, and a clean, crisp little piano tinkle".[1] Migos uses the phrase "pipe it up" as a response to different situations.[2] The rap in a triplet rhythm pattern.[3][4] In the song, they also declare they invented the phrase "pipe it up" and predict it will become popular.[3]
Music video
[edit | edit source]The music video was released on August 3, 2015. It sees Quavo and Takeoff performing, with people from a neighborhood, including kids,[4][5] who show dancing moves. Offset does not appear in the video.[5][6]
Remix
[edit | edit source]The official remix of the song features American rappers 2 Chainz and Jeezy.
