Ever since his watershed debut Rodeo, every subsequent Travis Scott release has become a big cultural moment, music that defines the conversations around hip-hop and sets the stage for mainstream expectations the entire year. It’s easy to see why: he features all sorts of different mainstream names from Kendrick Lamar on Birds in the Trap Sing Mcknight’s Goosebumps to John Mayer and Don Toliver on the ASTROWORLD highlight CAN’T SAY; his dark and nocturnal take on trap makes ... read more
