Not everyone was a fan of the performance however, commenting on the group’s heavy use of autotune.
WTF is Migos doing? #SNL

Migos joined Charles Barkley, who was host for the March 3 episode of Saturday Night Live, as musical guest.
Migos recently released their new album Culture II, featuring singles “Notice Me” featuring Post Malone, “Walk It Talk It” featuring Drake and the hit single “Motorsport” featuring Cardi B and Nicki Minaj.
During the show, SNL also saw the return of Alec Baldwin as Donald Trump in the opening skit. The show also poked fun at Hollywood’s harassment conversation as well as had athlete Alex Rodriguez make an appearance.
Along with Barkey and Migos, This Is Us star Sterling K. Brown is set to host the show on March 10 with musical guest James Bay. Bill Hader will then host March 17 with musical guest Arcade Fire.
One of the members, Quavo, recently made headlines after being accused of assaulting jewelry maker Eric the Jeweler in New York City over a financial dispute that occurred after the Grammys.
