"T-Shirt" is a song by American hip hop group Migos. It impacted radio on February 14, 2017 as the second single from their second studio album Culture (2017).[1] The song was produced by Nard & B alongside their TrenchWerk cohort XL Eagle.[2] The song peaked in the top 20 of the US Billboard Hot 100, and has acquired 336 million YouTube views and 415 million Spotify plays as of February 2022.
Music critic Simon Reynolds praised "T-Shirt" as "vocal alchemy via Auto-Tune, turning profane tales of fast lane life into a holy trance, a choral weave of glistening rap, ecstatic ad libs, and a wordless backing ripple of Gregorian gurgles and droning moans."[3]
The music video for the song, directed by DAPS and Quavo, features the trio dressed as Arctic hunters in fur and Versace snow boots, with snowmobiles, spears and practicing archery, alongside three women.[4] It was filmed at a mountain range near Lake Tahoe.[5] The video premiered on January 6, 2017 via Migos' YouTube channel.
On March 23, 2017, Migos performed "T-Shirt", alongside The Roots, on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon.[6]
