    If the album don't drop the 28th he f***ed this rollout up. You don't drop a song with arguably the 2 biggest artists of the past 5 years on one song and not immediately hop on your hype the following week. this s*** damn near guaranteed going number 1 upon release.

    I dont want this to happen but realistically they might want to wait for the single to rlly gain traction first before dropping, travis big enough that just dropping the single will generate enough noise tho

    And also I kinda hate Astroworld's reputation as the safe, mainstream album lol

    Mfs only attach that s*** to that album because of who Travis went on to be after that, which is dumb cuz why wouldn't he?

    In the terms of strictly music making it lines up with Trav's other albums in terms of taking risks and s***.

    Even s*** like Sicko Mode, that song has an intro, 3 different instrumentals, like 5 verses, and no real chorus

    Structure wise that s*** should not have been a single but it worked lmaoo

    Look at the production and writing credits on those albums. Nigga had Kevin Parker, Thundercat, The Weeknd, Stevie Wonder, BadBadNotGood on the same album

    He toes the line between playing it safe and expanding his artistry perfectly on astroworld. Thats been his musical strength since the beginning imo.

    And he gon do it again

    This is what I always say

    All of Travis’ albums are an evolution of his previous sounds. DBR is OP reimagined, Rodeo is DBR and OP reimagined and expanded on, so is Birds and Astroworld and so on and so forth

    On astroworld we heard Travis singing on a medley of Thundercat and River Tiber production. Then brought Kanye n Pharrell over Tame Impala s***, like no none of that s*** is safe, it’s unpredictable and insane

    Each separate part of sicko mode is a pretty straight forward trap song tho, i respect it for being like the first song to just say f*** a transition we switching the beat but other than that each part is pretty unchallenging on its own

    I consider smthn like 3500 which is like if pink floyd structured a trap song much more impressive

    Bro sometimes I forget this nigga got Stevie Wonder playing harmonica over trap drums

    The only thing u can expect with a Travis album is the unexpected.

    You can only expect that it’ll be big and spectacular but that’s not a specific expectation

    Truu but even antidote was crazy for its time. Hip hop heads have a strange tunnel vision perspective on travis scott

    the beats on 3500 aren't that challenging on their own either, it's the sum of it's parts which make both songs impressive.
