Houston-born hip-hop artist and producer affiliated with Kanye West’s GOOD Music and T.I.’s Grand Hustle, Travis Scott became known during the early 2010s for his heavily Auto-Tuned half-sung/half-rapped vocal style. Within seven years of his mainstream arrival via West’s Cruel Summer compilation (2012), on which he served as co-producer and featured artist, Scott attained numerous platinum singles as a lead artist, including a streak of four that began with “Antidote,” a track off his number three hit debut album, Rodeo (2015). He followed with a pair of number one full-lengths, Birds in the Trap Sing McKnight (2016) and Astroworld (2018), all the while assisting in platinum singles headlined by the likes of Rihanna (“Bitch Better Have My Money”), SZA (“Love Galore”), and Drake (“Portland”), and working extensively with Quavo as Huncho Jack. Whether leading or supporting, Scott’s presence was unmistakable, almost always colored with an array of ad-lib trills including but not limited to “It’s lit,” “Yeah, yeah,” and “Straight up.” Along with a collaborative 2019 album with his label collective Jackboys, Scott released the back-to-back 2021 singles “Escape” and “Mafia.”

Travis Scott had a good social media buzz to the point where fans come across videos of Travis and crowds doing wild shit at concerts quite regularly.

Born Jacques Webster, Travis Scott grew up in a suburb of Houston and began making music as a teenager. He formed a duo called the Graduates with Chris Holloway, and they released an EP in 2009. The following year, he formed another duo, the Classmates, with OG Chess. Scott produced the pair’s two full-lengths, Buddy Rich and Cruis’n USA, but they broke up near the end of 2011. After dropping out of college, Scott moved to Los Angeles and began recording music on his own. He met T.I. and eventually Kanye West. Scott was hired as an in-house producer for GOOD Music, and appeared on the label’s Cruel Summer compilation in 2012. Scott’s debut, Owl Pharaoh, was originally scheduled to be released as a free mixtape in 2012, but as his profile grew (including a placement in XXL Magazine’s Freshman Class of 2013), and sample clearance issues, the album wasn’t released until May 2013. Featuring guest appearances by T.I. and 2 Chainz (on the single “Upper Echelon”) as well as Toro y Moi and Justin Vernon of Bon Iver, Owl Pharaoh eventually garnered a nomination for Best Mixtape at the 2013 BET Hip Hop Awards.

The buildup to Scott’s first proper studio album involved the Days Before Rodeo mixtape, promoted with the singles “Don’t Play” and “Mamacita,” and the March 2015 U.S. Rodeo Tour, headlined by Scott and supported by Young Thug and Metro Boomin. Several of the dates sold out. The same month, Rihanna’s Scott-produced hit single “Bitch Better Have My Money” was released. “3500” and “Antidote” were issued ahead of Rodeo, Scott’s second full-length, which followed in September on Grand Hustle/Epic and debuted at number three on the Billboard 200. Toward the end of the year, “Antidote” peaked at number 16 on the Hot 100 and became Scott’s first platinum single.

JEFFERY

Chatter regarding a follow-up, along with numerous delays, ensued throughout much of 2016. Meanwhile, Scott extended his commercial presence with featured spots on Wiz Khalifa’s “Bake Sale,” Rihanna’s “Woo,” and Kanye West’s “FML,” as well as a collaboration with Young Thug and Quavo, “Pick Up the Phone,” a mid-year hit issued as the lead single of Young Thug’s JEFFERY. Three months later, after “Bitch Better Have My Money” earned platinum certification, Scott’s second proper album arrived. Titled Birds in the Trap Sing McKnight after one of Quavo’s lines in “Pick Up the Phone,” the woozy, mostly midtempo set featured that hit and contributions from the likes of André 3000, Kid Cudi, and Kendrick Lamar. It went straight to the top of the Billboard 200.

Huncho Jack, Jack Huncho

Leading up to his third LP, Scott was featured on a slew of tracks, including platinum singles headlined by SZA (“Love Galore”), Drake (“Portland”), Miguel (“Sky Walker”), 2 Chainz (“4 AM”), and Trippie Redd (“Dark Knight Dummo”). Scott’s own “Butterfly Effect” arrived during this torrent of hits in May 2017 and promptly went platinum as well. Seven months later, Huncho Jack, Jack Huncho, a collaborative full-length with Quavo, entered the Billboard 200 at number three. The following May, Scott released “Watch,” a non-album track featuring Kanye West and Lil Uzi Vert, and within three months released Astroworld, which he considered the true follow-up to Rodeo. Featuring “Butterfly Effect,” the album — named after a demolished Houston amusement park — debuted at number one and was supported with a second single, “Sicko Mode.” Scott closed out 2018 by appearing on multiple tracks of Metro Boomin’s Not All Heroes Wear Capes album.

JackBoys

After collaborating with Young Thug and J. Cole on 2019’s “The London” and being featured on Ed Sheeran’s “Antisocial,” Scott issued his own solo single, “Highest in the Room.” JackBoys, a brief compilation showcasing artists from Scott’s Cactus Jack Records label, appeared at the end of the year. The release subsequently became the first number one album of the 2020s. Another Young Thug collaboration, “Franchise,” also featuring M.I.A., debuted in September 2020 on top of the Billboard 200. In January 2021, Spanish DJ HVME released a deep house reworking of Scott and Kendrick Lamar’s song “Goosebumps,” eventually topping Billboard’s Hot Dance/Electronic Songs Chart. Two more tracks arrived that November with the both “Escape Plan” and “Mafia” arriving concurrently and hitting the Top Ten of the Billboard’s Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart.
