Rap superstar group Migos was removed from a Delta flight last Friday, just hours before their concert. Their manager is reportedly accusing the airline of racial profiling.
Migos were on a flight from Atlanta to Des Moines, Iowa. However, the plane returned to the gate before it departed to drop off the trio. Their manager told TMZ that the three members of the group were in first class, and Takeoff’s bag was on the ground and not in the overhead storage as required.
Delta said in a statement to Variety that the group was removed for a failure to follow crew member instructions and properly stow away their items in the overhead bins. Their manager, however, told TMZ that Takeoff failed to follow instructions and place his bag in the bin because he was asleep.
Delta added that Migos was also rebooked for an alternate flight to Des Moines. Their manager, however, is still claiming that they were taken off because of racial profiling.
