Background

In February 2024, Kanye West re-posted a video to Instagram Stories of former Migos member Quavo and fellow rapper Rich the Kid shooting a music video at a game of the Atlanta Hawks. Quavo was reported to be featured on multiple tracks of Vultures 1 at the time, having appeared on previewed versions of "Fuk Sumn" and "Back to Me".[1] "Paperwork" was the only track on the final release on which Quavo appeared or was credited, having recorded a verse for "Fuk Sumn" that was replaced by Travis Scott.[2][3] During a listening event for the album on February 8, 2024, "Paperwork" was previewed with a sample of "Montagem Faz Macete 3.0" by DJ Roca and DJ Vitinho Beat. DJ Roca posted Instagram Stories showing his emotion over the sample, while numerous Brazilians re shared videos of the event in excitement for the usage of funk.[4] West and Ty Dolla Sign performed "Paperwork" live with Quavo at Rolling Loud in 2024, as they wandered around the stage together.[5][6]
