Travis Scott, born Jacques Bermon Webster II, has evolved from a Houston-based artist into a global music icon and entrepreneur, known for his innovative sound and high-profile brand collaborations. After signing with Epic Records and securing a publishing deal with Kanye West’s GOOD Music in 2012, Travis Scott began a distinguished career that quickly established him as a significant artist. He released his acclaimed first full-length mixtape, ‘Owl Pharaoh,’ in 2013, followed by ‘Days Before Rodeo’ in 2014, showcasing his distinctive blend of hip-hop and atmospheric production. Scott’s debut studio album, ‘Rodeo,’ released in 2015, achieved substantial critical and commercial success, featuring his first Billboard Hot 100 charting single, ‘Antidote.’ Building on this momentum, Scotts second album, ‘Birds in the Trap Sing McKnight’ (2016), became his first to reach the number one spot on the Billboard 200.
Later that year, his single ‘Franchise,’ featuring Young Thug and M.I.A., debuted at number one on the Hot 100, making him the first artist to achieve three number-one debuts in less than a year. Scotts fourth consecutive number-one album on the Billboard 200, ‘Utopia,’ was released in 2023. Most recently, a remastered version of ‘Days Before Rodeo’ debuted at number one on the Billboard 200 in its fourth week on the chart in 2024, demonstrating the enduring impact of his early work. Looking ahead to 2025, his single ‘4×4’ is anticipated to peak atop the Billboard Hot 100.
