    I can’t believe in 2017 I was hating on the fact that Travis was putting out some iconic pop features

    I think most of us trav fans can admit lots of us were too harsh on the birds era leading up to Astro, I still liked the music at the time but it hits so much more 3-4 years later now.

    My feelings as well

    I’d rather it be Q 1 tbh, I want that Kendrick to sit with me

    We slandered too much good s*** like don’t quit, go legend, ghost face killers, prayers up, I think the oversaturation of features could’ve been the reason we overlooked these

    I think it was just the fact that we went birds -> pop feature run -> HJJH that left people super super skeptical

    But now that we know what Travis was going for there and knowing it wasn’t a blind chase just makes it feel so much better when viewing his career because there was a calculation that we just overlooked

    When the giant heads were spotted and he dropped the cover that afternoon

    That cover feels like an RL Stine cover where it’s excessively poppy but it makes it even more unsettling

    So many of us were skeptics about the bright cover so he hit us with the dark one later on to satisfy us lmao

    I was at work when I got hit with that notification

    Had to finish the last 20 minutes of my shift f***ing ecstatic, couldn’t contain myself

    Don’t think I can ever get as hype for an album as I did with Astro tbh

    It’s a testament to Astroworld’s longevity & quality that the wait for Utopia hasn’t felt nearly as long as the wait between Birds-Astro did, despite it now being over three years

    Definitive classic of the 2010s, very rare for an artist to exceed expectations as dramatically as he did on Astroworld and deliver a satisfying sequel to his debut album (and magnum opus that was Rodeo)

    I think it would have been way worse without the big drops we’ve had

    Donda, CLB and I’m absolutely loving Keem’s album at the moment too

    Plus I’m too invested in Carti’s rollout at the moment to care for Utopia

    (And we have Don next week!)

    But if he does really push it to Q1 2022 I’ll be fiending for it lmao, I respect his decision nonetheless, he deserves his moment

    I agree we got so much music right now travis can take his time until it’s his season

    I’m telling you we aren’t ready for what’s coming

    The pop run was honestly the best part of that entire saga tbh

    Mix is pretty amateur and it’s very kanye & cudi derivative. The Atlanta influence on dbr really helped him grow into his own. Still love the baby Kanye baby Cudi s*** tho I hope utopia has a lot of it
