Quavo And Lenny Kravitz Rock Out In “FLY” Music Video
Quavo also detailed that he’s working on Takeoff’s album next, calling it “one of the craziest albums of all time.”
Quavo and Lenny Kravitz rock out together in the “FLY” music video. The song gives a modern take on Kravitz’s 1998 hit “Fly Away.” Directed by Jake Nava, the two musicians perform the track all-out. It is presented in black-and-white with bright flashes amplifying the energy of the song throughout the video.
“Flyest in the room, who flyer than you?/ Flyest in the room, you just passed the moon/ Highest of the high, higher like the view,” rhymes the Atlanta musician. Lenny Kravitz adds vocals throughout the hook and background of the track.
“FLY” follows the release of “Tough,” a pop-infused track with Lana Del Rey released last month.
Both tracks signal a new creative era for Quavo, involving standout artists in genres outside of Hip-Hop and R&B. His last full-length solo effort was the album Rocket Power issued in 2023. In October 2023, he explained himself as working on a posthumous release from Takeoff.
“The next project I’m going to be working on is the Rocket’s. You know what I’m saying? Takeoff,” he detailed. “I’m gathering a whole bunch of information, gathering a lot of producers, gathering a lot of my friends, a lot of the artists. And we’re going to make this album one of the craziest albums of all time.”
Rapper Quavo speaks at a campaign rally for Democratic presidential candidate, U.S. Vice President Kamala Harris at the Georgia State Convocation Center on July 30, 2024 in Atlanta, Georgia. Both Harris and Republican presidential nominee, former President Donald Trump plan to campaign in Atlanta this week.

Outside of his musical endeavors, the 33-year-old has been politically active. Last month, he joined Vice President Kamala Harris at her first rally in Atlanta as she campaigns for the white house. The moment extends his existing relationship with the VP, established in September 2023 when the pair met to discuss gun violence and gun control.
“One of these issues that I care about is resolving the gun violence issues,” the former Migos rapper shared with the excited audience at the recent campaign event.
“You can’t understand the struggle of gun violence if you not in the field or in the heart of it. So, one thing I learned from working with Vice President Harris is she always stand on business. From inviting me to the White House last year to discuss these solutions, to passing the biggest gun safety laws today.”
He continued to offer Harris support, adding, “So, it’s only right in the birthplace of the culture is also the same place to launch the first African-American woman to run for president.”
