Outside of the Big 3 (Drake, Kendrick, Cole) Travis has been next up
He's essentially in his prime era
I usually agree with your takes but idk about this one. I think you're too hung up on the generation concept.
Here's how I see it. If Drake/Cole/Kendrick are, say, generation 1 then Travis is like 1.5, with XXXTentacion, Juice WRLD etc... being 2

I definitely agree that Travis is a different gen for sure
Travis matched the Astroworld sales with Utopia and also doubled the streams
We all know why he did that

I'm not saying he's gonna fall off, but he's already been here with Astroworld and arguably Rodeo. He's already had his own scandals (proof of being a serial careerist user/narcissist, Astroworld deaths, general insensitivity) too lmao
We all know why he did that
Pure sales were pretty much the same on both albums but he had to double his streams on Utopia to do it
Bundles were the same for both

Travis was a 2013 XXL freshmen
that’s 10 years ago, he just reached his prime later
There won’t be another one for a long time, and there will only be one if the genre goes through a revival in the future. There will be chart climbers still like ice spice, in the same vein artists from beyond-their-heyday genres can still be chart climbers, but I don’t think we’ll get a new Kendrick or drake or something akin to that.
