Hello /mu/, today I am going to become a shill for Travis Scott.
If you don't know who Travis Scott is, he's a rapper and producer. He has revolutionized trap music throughout the past few years.
Here's a song you may have heard before:

or this one:

In 2015, Travis released his album Rodeo. In 2016, he released Birds In The Trap.
Going into these albums, I didn't realize how good they would be, especially Rodeo. The production on these things is top notch like holy fuck, especially on Rodeo.
Critics such as Anthony Fantano have yet to give Travis the legendary 10's and 9's, so naturally 4chan gives him no attention and automatically dismisses it as shit.
Here is a song from Rodeo, "90210". Notice the polished production, great songwriting, and revolutionary use of autotune:

Here are two more songs off of Rodeo, "Nightcrawler" and "Oh My Dis Side". Both of these songs are modern masterpieces.

Travis Scott is heavily underappreciated on /mu/. Let's collectively push this album to overcome everyone's Fantano cock sucking philosophy that they all deny having. We can have our own taste /mu/. Let's be our own people.

Didn't Fantano give Rodeo an 8?
Travis Scott is alright, but I feel like he's become somewhat stagnated in terms of evolution. Birds was good, and so are all the recent singles and verses he releases, but they're all pretty bland. His best song is Maria, I'm Drunk, both Young Thug and Beiber give their best features and Travis is great as well.

he is normie garbage and brings really nothing new to the table
>>73383611
Yes, but the he gave Birds a 3, and if he doesn't give an album a 9 or a 10, people won't go out of their way to listen to it.
>>73383642
listen to Nightcrawler doggy.
some of his songs are normie-tier but that doesn't mean they're bad.
He may be super popular but the normies who play Antidote and Goosebumps don't actually listen to his albums for the most part, they just get fucked up to select songs.
His albums may be a bit normie-tier but that doesn't make them bad.
basically a watered down kanye
>>73383611
and yes I hope that he doesn't disappoint with his next album because although I really liked birds, it wasn't as good as Rodeo and that's just a fact.
And yeah Maria I'm Drunk is really good.
>LOOKING FOR THAT ALLEY
makes me want to cry no joke
travis scott is garbage. music for poser white boys who wear supreme and adidas boosts
>>73383866
fuck well you hit the white part but that may just be coincidence
>>73383538
As far as trap goes he's pretty great, but he needs to almost die or something like kanye
>>73383642
I used to think the same thing but honestly he's got a lot of good tracks. His use of autotune is actually good rather than a band-aid for a bad voice. He's a lot more lyrical than people give him credit for too. Probably 75% of his work though are either typical trap party bangers or just bad though I'll give you that. I'm hopeful his next album will be solid front to back
If Astroworld is his most experimental album yet I think he can be really great. Right now he's straddling the line between innovative and total trash
>>73384202
If Butterfly Effect is on Astroworld then it will probably be pretty disappointing if that's the single
>>73384352
idk I though Butterfly Effect was ok. Green and Purple was a solid track imo
days before rodeo is great
