More than one year after Kanye West effectively imploded his career, he is beginning to understand that actions often come with consequences, even for him. In a recent Instagram post, which has since been deleted, the rapper sought the help of his followers to book arenas to perform in. In the past year, he claims, he has only been able to perform at Chicago’s United Center because other venues have stated that they don’t have any open availability for him.

A few hours before he dropped his long-awaited studio album Utopia, Travis Scott shared its official 19-song tracklist. The image included each title written out in near-illegible scribbles with a harsh, grainy filter overlay making it all the more difficult to decipher. Throughout the list, there were no featured artists, but the album’s arrival revealed appearances from Beyoncé, Drake, The Weeknd, Sza, James Blake, and more across its stacked guest list.

Travis Scott has finally released his much-anticipated fourth studio album, Utopia, via Cactus Jack and Epic Records. Stream it via Apple Music or Spotify below.
Utopia is the follow-up to Scott’s 2018 album, Astroworld, and arrives as Scott’s first full-length since the crowd crush at his 2021 Astroworld music festival that left 10 people dead and thousands more injured. Last month, a grand jury declined to criminally indict Scott for the deaths at Astroworld.
Ahead of the album’s release, Scott shared the lead single, “K-pop,” a collaboration with Bad Bunny and The Weeknd. Other guest contributors include Beyoncé, Drake, Sza, Future, 21 Savage, and Kid Cudi as well as Bon Iver and James Blake.
Music from Utopia is also featured in Scott’s new film, Circus Maximus, which premiered at select AMC theaters beginning on Thursday night. The Houston native wrote the movie and co-directed it with Gaspar Noé, Nicolas Winding Refn,...

Don Toliver lined up special guests Justin Bieber, James Blake and Kali Uchis for the trap singer’s Saturday night set at Rolling Loud California.
Performing just two weeks after the release of his latest LP Love Sick, Toliver enlisted the three guest singers to bring their collaborative album tracks to life live: Blake first appeared for “Let Her Go,” followed by Uchis (the live debut of “4 Me”) and finally Bieber, who stopped by for a Future-less rendition of “Private Landing.”
Bieber’s appearance — his first public performance since Sept.

Earlier this year, a debate briefly flared on social media: where have the superstars gone? What happened to the days when Kendrick Lamar and Drake battled for global supremacy, Kanye West elicited praise from the likes of David Lynch, the Future Hive controlled rap Twitter, Lil Wayne was the best rapper alive, and Nicki Minaj commanded the Hot 100? With those “stadium status” acts largely past their imperial phases – perhaps the jury is out on Pulitzer Kenny, who has yet to issue a follow up to his 2017 album Damn – the genre seems irrevocably atomized.

For two days at Stubb’s BBQ, some of the hottest names in contemporary rap and hip-hop made their presence felt at SXSW. Babyface Ray, Jasiah, Guapo, BillyRacxx and Sheck Wes all made dramatic appearances at RapTV’s Rolling Loud weekend showcase. But it was Saturday’s headliner Don Toliver — a Houston native still riding high on last year’s Life of a Don — who arguably did the most with his allotted time onstage.

When Ye calls, you answer. Take it from Digital Nas. Last April, the rapper and producer, whose real name is Nasir Pemberton, was living in Atlanta, making his own records as well as tracks for Lil Yachty, A$AP Ferg, Sheck Wes, and others at the time. Then he heard that the star formerly known as Kanye West had heard some of his tracks through Mowalola Ogunlesi, design director for Ye’s Yeezy Gap collaboration — and he wanted to meet Nas in Los Angeles.

Directors Cactus Jack and White Trash Tyler fill the Nsfw visual with disorienting touches: a series of choppy editing effects, slow-motion sequences and an eerie blue light that follows the rappers as they chill in a fast food parking lot.

Scott hyped the release on his Instagram and Twitter with limited edition merch — guaranteeing attention from a large corner of the internet. There were cryptic videos of the Cactus Jack Records collective that looked like a low budget A24 promo. A compilation album populated by Scott’s artist (Don Toliver, Sheck Wes, Chase B) and frequent collaborators (Quavo, Young Thug) followed. At just seven tracks, though, the promised meal was,...

Southern California transportation officials are working on a plan to use Amtrak trains to help to ease traffic gridlock to and from the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival.
The Riverside County Transportation Commission says it has received $8.6 million in funding for temporary train service that would run from Los Angeles to the city of Indio, according to the Riverside Press-Enterprise.
The funding would include $5.9 million from the state, with another $2.7 coming from the county. The trains would pick passengers up at Union Station in downtown L.A. and travel about two hours to the Coachella Valley. Attendees would then board shuttle buses to the concert grounds.
The goal is to have the service ready for the 2020 Coachella and Stagecoach Country Music festivals.
This year’s Coachella fest is set to take place from April 12-14, and then return April 19-21, with Childish Gambino, Tame Impala, and Ariana Grande announced as headliners.

After the 2019 Grammy Awards, all the biggest names in music dispersed to various after-parties -- the question ... whose party was the most poppin'??? At least five different get-togethers were going down at the same time late Sunday night all over L.A. Republic Records had a shindig, as did Universal and Sony.

The results show right away what a good idea that was.

Travis Scott wants to see Kylie Jenner before her private jet takes off, but he’s running late to meet her, so he punches the gas on his Lamborghini SUV and sends the speedometer into hysterics: 80 miles an hour becomes 95 becomes a screaming 110, or exactly double the speed limit on this particular stretch of Houston highway. It is pouring rain. Farther up in Scott’s lane, where traffic is thicker, a Land Rover brakes, but Scott — left hand on the wheel, right hand on his phone, eyes on a maps app — does not.

The apex of Travis Scott’s second night at Madison Square Garden for his Astroworld — Wish You Were Here tour wasn’t when Kendrick Lamar — leading candidate for best rapper alive — made a guest appearance to perform his verse on “Goosebumps.” It wasn’t “Stargazing,” the rattling, pyrotechnic-inflected opener that set the tone for the night. It wasn’t even “Sicko Mode,” the second most popular song in the country that Scott extended to close the night out. Instead, it was one of his earliest hits: “Antidote.” As the opening synths swelled,...

Saturday Night Live delivered a Sheck Wes-inspired rap tribute to Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg on its Steve Carell-hosted episode.
Kate McKinnon reprised her “Weekend Update” portrayal of the judge dubbed “Rbg,” with Pete Davidson and Chris Redd turning Sheck Wes’ “Live Sheck Wes” into an ode to Ginsburg. “Live Ginsburg, and I ride for Ginsburg,” the duo declare.
“Yo, this country is crazy. You know there’s only like one lady holding the damn thing together, right?,” Davidson said before Redd added, “You think some broken ribs gonna keep her down?...

In August, Travis Scott announced that, instead of a Houston stop on his tour in support of Astroworld, he would throw the inaugural edition of ‘Astroworld Festival.’ It made sense: Scott spent the run up to the release of his latest album talking about how much he wanted to give back to the city of Houston — it was named after a shuttered amusement park, and Scott’s intention was to attempt to bring some excitement for the kids still in his hometown. A date was given, and a location, then the $150 tickets sold out.
