Travis Scott is one of the hottest rappers in the game. He's about to perform at the Superbowl, his 3rd album, Astroworld is massive and he has a unanimously positive public perception. But Travis Scott's journey to the top has been years in the making, with lots of hard work and disappointment along the way. Travis Scott got his beginning as a producer for Kanye West's collab album Cruel Summer. His debut mixtape Owl Pharaoh was well received and he was recognized as a promising new talent in the rap industry. Between then and now he released the catchy Days Before Rodeo, the epic trap opus Rodeo, dark, brooding Birds in the Trap Sing McKnight, poppy Huncho Jack and finally, the unique, genre defying Astroworld. Travis Scott has a kid with Kylie Jenner and a holiday named after him in Houston, Texas. He's risen to the very top of mainstream popularity thanks to hard work and determination. He's worked with veterans such as Kanye West, T.I., Stevie Wonder and more as well as peers like Young Thug, Swae Lee, Quavo, Justin Bieber, Drake and more. Travis's most popular songs include Goosebumps, Sicko Mode, Butterfly Effect, Stargazing, 90210 and more.

Still can't believe Invasion of Privacy won over Astroworld...
Faieq Rahman right????
😿
I would’ve been ok if swimming had won, but fcking cardi b?!
Faieq Rahman I can’t either, it’s bullshit, invasion of privacy had a few alright songs, but AstroWorld was an absolute masterpiece
Poor Travis too, he seemed kinda down after he lost like if Drake was tryna make him feel better
Your visual editing is next level 🔥
Understatement it's GOD LEVEL
“This effect requires GPU acceleration”
Plot twist: he's actually the editor of every Travis's music video

Just has in black n white filter its easy kid
I like how he didnt say kylie jenner once just travis girlfriend
Tristen Atwood she belong to the streetsssss
Will Luff 😂😂
Will Luff No she doesn’t
Ssparkk simp
@@cashewsftw its a reverse simp because hes the one looking for money
I still want a “Nights After Rodeo” mixtape
Scrappy 895 to be a dark grimey heavy-bass songs with beat switch ups in which the only features will be young thug, cudi, swae lee and the weeknd
@@2004_si Yeah, and it could be somewhat more emotional than Days and Rodeo, like the effects of those albums are taking a toll on La Flame, with T.I narrating
Scrappy 895 yeah
Never will happen. The age of the Rodeo is over. Now we are in the age of Astroworld
Scrappy 895 there’s a fan made mixtape of his unreleased songs and singles called “days after days before rodeo” it’s on datpiff you should check it out. there’s also a compilation of music between BITTSM and astroworld called “days before astroworld” on soundcloud. underground trav is some of his best imo
This man is the Travis Scott of editing...
Teddy’s Vibe go watch misteramazing’s video on xxxten
Lmao
This guy completely skipped over Birds In The Trap like it wasn’t the most fire party album of its time
Sergy Khazardjian its travis’s most complete album and bro just skipped over it
Sergy Khazardjian ong
the ends is still the best intro to an album to this day
Was thinking the same for the whole video
Charles Lang pornography tops the ends imo
lmao "Travis looked overwhelmingly happy at the ceremony."

Travis Scott is a hip hop Rockstar 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Geek WRLD Podcast not really
Oisín Brew-Dinan yes really
Geek WRLD Podcast well he doesn’t make rock music but I can see what you’re trying to say. His live performances are like something from rock with how high-energy they are
Oisín Brew-Dinan duhh keyword HIP HOP ROCKSTAR
Geek WRLD Podcast that was thee words dumb fuck
side fact: He named himself Travis Scott as a reference of Kid Cudi, which real name is Scott Mescudi.
I think Kid Cudis influence on todays rap is highly underrated, your next video should be The Story of Kid Cudi.
Good work, keep it up
qwertz420 he got his first name travis from his grandpa or uncle, who was a musician himself. Then he got Scott from kid cudi.
@@squegleg7217 Uncle
@qwertz420 someone made a good video on cudi named "How a misfit from Cleveland impacted hip hop".
YES
qwertz420 AGREED
You are quickly becoming one of my favorite channels. Wholesome music content with next level editing. Respect

Since when did u fw Travis 🤔🤔
ISAIAHthePLAYAH sup Isaiah
you are the goat
Bruh Isaiah pulling up 😂
“At that moment the one and only Jacq turned Scott, chose to jump off his mama porch and lead the stampede of lost souls.”
"In the middle of their metamorphosis, not quite through with their journey
Ain't made it to wherever the fuck they gon' be in life
But wherever it is, it's better than here, so fuck you, and fuck this"
Brage Merkesdal no monogamy, ménage with me pornography surrounding me, you get high wit me, you come down with me that’s all I neeed in my fantasy

Give you some of me, you want all of me
And get high with me, and you come down with me
Yeah that’s all I need, in my fantasy...
V awesome narration
The story of the bastard was never told, the soul of a bastard was never sold
I understand that people might not rate BITTSM as high as the other work by Travis, but come on that shit was not a disappointment. That shit still slaps
urbawz AMEN
FACTS, ppl sleeps on BITTISM, songs like Los and outside are one of the most slept on flame songs
Yeah I'm confused af as well, didn't it hit #1 on the billboards?
It's not about being a good album, it's about being unique. That's why many people hate j. Cole. That's why artists such as 50 cent & DMX lost their appeal in just 10 years while the jay-z & Dr. Dre legend lives on since 25-30 years. Innovation. 50 cent, dmx, t.i. etc etc are formulaic rappers. They have a hit sound, a hit formula and every album every song reflects that. I can tell the difference of vibe and sound between astroworld & rodeo. I can't tell the difference between "Get rich, die trying" & "the massacre", or between "it's dark & hell is hot" &"flesh & blood". They stick to the same formulas that made these artists popular. The darkness of rodeo is very different from the pure sweet extravaganza that "Astroworld" is. Birds in the trap on the other hand, is just the antidote or mamacita formula repeated over & over again. It's an album with good songs, but it's not a good "ALBUM". It looses the essence of expanding the artists sound. As the melonhead says, "Rodeo" is a trip, "BITTSM" is just the hollow vibes or sounds from the trip. Not only is there no growth at all, it's actually downgrading of the sound of Travis.
Piyush Vaidya Ok yeah, I see your point and I agree.
You should have mentioned how Nicki Minaj tried to start beef for no reason and Travis Scott completely ignored her lmao
Would have been a better example of how Travis Scott avoids any drama.
Also in his Super Bowl performance he's making the NFL or something donate a shit ton of money to reduce backlash lol
That was a non-issue started by an elderly has been. No need to waste any hours edditing a segment on that.
he talked about the donation at the end of the video
He had little beef with A$ap Rocky
@@xscyionx7108 Not really, it was just media and fans trying to start shit for no reason lmao. There's several pictures of Asap Rocky and Travis chilling together.
He ignored her because that would just be more clout for her. No free clout for niki lmao
Birds in the Trap was "underwhelming" but gave us Goosebumps... I get it, but 3 years later BITT is a damn good album, lol
Birds in the Trap Sing McKnight, while not his best project, is my personal favorite easily
Boricceli I didn’t find it underwhelming, and it was just the narrators opinion if u think critically
He just said it as if it was factual objectively but it was a subjective opinion one need not be influenced by much (especially because I think it is far from objective truth if u assess the impact it had, combined with how unique it was and still is for the musical landscape, in addition many have since emulated and been inspired by travis (a big form of flattery)
Don’t give too much weight to the media think for urselfmore please
I feel like it wasn’t appreciated back then
Travis really has worked for everything he has. Remember when you hit rock bottom there is only one way to go
Kill more fans? POS
Talent > popularity
Why I have always and will always follow Travis. He made it to the top on pure talent.
🤦🏽♂️ ngl alot of songs slapped on Huncho Jack, people just wanted 13 oh my dis side’s
D 13 90210’s
Agreed
🎸💋
For me
Dubai Shit
Motorcycle Patches
Where U From ?
Were my favorites
D facts
But oh my dis side is low key his best song tho so I wouldn’t care
You're really gonna drop a Travis vid right when I get home?? I love you Volksgeist.
"He collaborated with Tame Impala, Stevie Wonder, Frank ocean & others with unique style" He didn't mention drake cos he doesn't have a unique style LOL
But he was on the video while mentioning others
Sweat shirt L
More impressive collaborating with one of the best blues artist ever (Stevie wonder) and one of the best alternative artist out right now(tame impala) many rappers can collaborate with drake if your on Travis’s level
Kareem Mahmoud any famous rapper can collaborate w drake, not every rapp can collab with an R&B legend
@Kareem Mahmoud I'd argue that Drake began era of beatswitch on IYRTITL
Birds Sing In The Trap McKnight was my favorite album of his so far though...
Nate Chambers sameee it just got washed off like it was nothing in this video
Same
Yeah this video pissed me tf off bc of this
mine is days before rodeo
BITTSM is overhated
agreed, it had some real bangers
Yesss
R O D R I G O I really didn’t like t
Basil Russo coordinate. Beibs in the trap. Lose. Way back. Sweet sweet. Pick up the phone
its the most consistent travis project imo
"ASTROWORLD is the most Travis Scott thing Travis Scott has ever made."
Can't agree but if that's where it's at then let's see how his next album sounds.
Rae Lomein can’t fucking wait man
big choppa it alr came out. JACKBOYS but i don’t think we will include that as an album 💀
Saed lol yea. i fw jackboys but the cover art was better than the tracks tbh.
@@Dareenah jackboys is a collab album bruh, and i feel like the album is supposed to bring more people to artists like sheck wes and don toliver
Rae Lomein bro check out days before rodeo
Huncho Jack is so slept on. Not as dense as Astroworld and Rodeo, but it straight up wall to wall bangers.
trash
AR$3N nah honestly aged well compared to Astro lo there I said it
HCostello Realm shit was wack
Only song I like on it was Black And Chinese but I didn’t fully listen to it. You got any good ones on the album?
@@CHIEFJAC saint is ight
please do one of these about Denzel curry or ski mask the slump god
Yeah Do Ski Mask The Slump God
Travis gave lectures at Harvard in creativity 🤯
andreas thomesn he should have invited T-Pain and everyone else he bit off of.
Jared Watson nigga are u dumb t- pain was not the first to use ever use auto tune u dumb ass nigga he just made it popular and Travis uses it better than him
Jared Watson are you serious?? He’s biting tpain just cause he used autotune 😂😂😂 lmfao .. Travis doesn’t really bite, he has influences... but def his own sound
treyydayoungan _ zHAHAHHAHS
Jared Watson Jared u shouldn’t be jealous u should be inspired
Bit is colloquial and can be synonymous with “was inspired by”
Who’s here after watching look mom I can fly?
Me
It was SUPER dope frfr. Travis is my favorite artist, big af but still slept on lowkey IMO. I made a vid detailing why his overall impact is significant man!
I'm gonna watch it after work.
@@jordankay8578 Ayyyyyy :D
damn wtf its been 5 months already
rodeo is one of the best rap albums ever no debate
yeah I’d definitely call it a classic
rodeo = goat
Every song on it is a masterpiece
Birds is better
@@Davail099 hahahaha no
Bruh Travis Scott is awesome, shoutout to him for making it this far
AJ The Wright Gamer yeah I’m happy for him. Glad
the fact that BITTSM was underwhelming shows how great travis scott is. Arguably travis's worst album is better than most mainstream artist's albums
Your graphics and storytelling have improved so much man! As always, another great video.
You know a rapper has talent, when they can make a fire song with no curse words, like butterfly effect.
Comment NIGGA fr
Kodak black codeine dreaming think again
This is the dumbest shit I've ever read
listen to Go Off by trav,quavo,and uzi there is no curse words
did u know coordinate has no curse words by Travis. its only Blac younsta intro theres cursing... its excessive in the intro tho but other than that no curse words not even nigga
Travis is my hero for avoiding controversy and focusing on the art. That’s what ima do too.
@@Bartiercarti when I saw 1 comment, I knew it'd be about the festival
Ooops
didn't age well...
lowl
@@crixalisadam3563 nope
Excellent content man. One of the biggest inspirations for my hip hop video essays to keep getting better. I hope I can one day get to the same incredible level as you
keep up the good work bro
@@Volksgeist no u
Travis Scott has inspired so many Artists that are Up rn & Up Next.
IVAN GREY caiugh dont toliver

Your xxx’s and trippies. For sure.
How is Birds not seen as a success. It had goosebumps, through the late night, wonderful, pick up the phone, way back, and a ton of other iconic Travis tracks. I get how it's not as genre bending as the rest of his work, but its still a major success and a career defining album.
got em
got em
Deez nuts
This isn't the editing of a 98K sub channel...
Let him live, he’s just passionately relaying more information on artists to inspire others
Personally I think the editing was good great and excellent inmo if u can edit better maybe email the channel host and ask for some collaborative work?
I’m sorry if I sound rude I’m not trying to offend u not a prophet I just think we should appreciate art in all forms and not bash it or dislike it or hate it when it’s spreading a good message and inspiring others. In other words I think u could think positively and phrase things more positively eg “the editing could be better on the next video” would inmo be a more objectively proactive way to get ur desired outcome: inspiration and cleaner more professional looking editing
I think if u phrased things positively u would achieve ur desired outcome without inputting negativity to someone’s creative and unique channel that they spent a long time working on?
Hope that helps
Anon Music he was saying that in a good way. he’s saying the editing is way too good for him to only have that many subs
Anon Music it wasn’t hate 😂
Anon Music 😂
@@kimberleychoudhury3358 imagine writing an emotional ass essay cause you thought a clear compliment was a fucking insult lmao. fat L.
The way they slowed goosebumps at the beginning was fire can't find it anywhere exactly like that tho.
Edit: "Goosebumps but you're in the bathroom at a party"
The Iron Knight same here i keep listening to that one part because i cant find a muffled version anywhere
The Iron Knight ruclips.net/video/Moneqm3ZdNE/видео.html this is pretty similar
@@EmmsiGaming Can't get enough of it thx bro
@@theironknight597 ;)
check (goosebumps HVME) you'll get the similar kinda thing!!
the editing of your videos is CRAAAAZYYYYYYY, the instrumentals while you’re telling stories almost makes me wanna cry😭😂✊🏾 thank you as always for your videos‼️
Thanks for watching!!
@@Volksgeist hey bruh, the track at 12:13. What's the name?. and thank you for this amazing vid. keep up!
M.A.C.H Stargazing, it’s the first song on the album...
Was actually going to basicly read the story of rocks for geography class, so it is safe to say That you came with this story in very good timing :) Thank you my good man.
This is by far my favorite video on all of youtube, and that's no lie. It is so well made and the information is so well researched and put together. I've watched this video over 10 times and I love it more and more every time. Thank you for this gift.
So true I always come back to this video
songs like lose, outside, way back and wonderful are maybe the most slept on BITTSM and flame songs. To even say «tHe aLbUm wAs a diSaPoiNTmEnT» is a usage of words that goes beyond irrelevancy and disrespect
Agree. I also loved Sweet Sweet
The album has a lot of good songs but it isnt a good ALBUM.It sounds like a fairly generic trap album with catchy melodies.Compared to Astroworld and Rodeo,it sounds hollow and doesnt sound anywhere near as unique
Sdp interlude was fire too
@@micahdarden6981 yeeeeah it's still rollin' in my head
Smoke some
Drink some
Pop one
mike sonko it may appear as a fairly generic trap album, but there aint a bad «fAiRly gEneRiC» song on the album, Even If it sounds basic, Its not, some of HIS biggest hits are on BITTSM, and thats because it not a generic trap album
You went full hiphop channel volksgiest and you got better at it too keep it up man. ✊
0:51 who actually got goosebumps listening to this version of goosebumps
Keep doing these Travis videos! Its always great when someone accurately represents your favorite artist and so far these videos are perfect.
And now we have Sicko Mode which is almost preferred over one Mo Bamba.
Sicko Bamba
definitely sicko mode > mo
bamba
idc what yall say
BITTSM is a great album
idk it was kind of a step down production wise from rodeo
blue txsla biebs in the trap isn’t even bad
blue txsla theyre both good, u just wanna look different coz theyre mainstream
LD facts
@@ld2573 those are the 2 ones i don't like either, could just be an opinion you know?
i cant believe you only have 94k subs-your content is worth at least a few mill. great vid!
Three things:
1. Birds go hard asf
2. Jack huncho go hard asf
3. Astroworld is not dark
445 BoyZ jack honcho was ass
@@dharshinimahesh7090 it was meh
Shomas Tarlett Honestly, ASTROTHUNDER was the only song that gave me the dark vibes from Travis . Which is probably why it’s my favorite song on Astroworld.
Premedrip000 that song was not dark at all
Stargazing who what and sicko mode where way darker than astrothunder
Astro wasn't supposed to be dark in the first place.
Birds in the trap is completely slept on. How can people say it’s bad. There’s probably only one meh song and the rest are bangers
I can’t decide my favorite between Way Back, The Ends, or Coordinate
Sdp interlude had mad potential. He should’ve dropped the full version
@@iw8ship I mean it is an interlude, that shit fire already if we being real
"Travis looked overwhelmingly happy" *completely blank face*
Great video, but I wouldn’t say that ASTROWORLD is the most Travis Scott project he’s made... I’d for sure give that to Rodeo 🐐
Tyler I think astroworld is better than rodeo
6ix 9ine this and 6ix 9ine that you’re so delusional
6ix 9ine this and 6ix 9ine that bandwagon
Days before rodeo fam
6ix 9ine this and 6ix 9ine that shut your mouth. You like Travis Scott, but you will never love Travis Scott.
Really great video. I went to the “Wish You Were Here Tour” and It’s a one of a kind. He’s a special man.
Great video. +Wix is actually good.
From la spark to la flame, Travis' wave spread like a wildfire
Don’t listen to this guy. If YOU REALLLY wanna understand Travis Scott just order his burger and smoke abunch of weed and blare all his albums
hahahha so true
Half his fans are 12 lol
true
Haha i did this
@@G89211 I doubt that very much
i love the effort that goes into your videos. that’s what separates you from the rest of these “youtubers”. greatly appreciate your videos!
Crazy how you acknowledge that his shows are dangerous.
Literally memorized every travis scott song over quarantine, if your scrolling thru comments and like the beat, heres the timestamp as well as song name of the beats.
0:52 - Goosebumps
1:13 - Overdue (Metroboomin)
3:05 Maria Im Drunk
4:51 Hell of a Night (also kylies favorite travis song lol)

I literally don’t know why people don’t like birds in the trap I love it and its my favorite album he has
fps goat aw hell nawwhh
Faxxx, I don't think it's his greatest but I definitely fuck with it heavy
1. Birds in Trap
2. Days before Rodeo
3. Astroworld
4. Rodeo
He sings way to much on that album
@@490osnabrucker8 Ur crazy if you think astroworld is better than rodeo lmao
Do a video on Denzel Curry
YES. Or Danny Brown
if life sucks just enjoy the head yes
yess
@@ThatOneGuy7550 saw danny brown is the hardest
Yup
theres just something special about Travis Scott that i cant describe that make me so compelled to listen to and appreciate every single thing he does and creates, it took me 3 months to finally finish watching "Look mom i can fly" because every time i would try it just made me want to stop everything i was doing and listen to his music.
OMG THANKS FOR THE VID
travis for president
10:28 oh man I wonder what effect didn't render here
Lechkata It might imply that the Astroworld wait was so long that it requires acceleration to finish the album
fenessi reach. even my mans Volksgeist makes mistakes
Idk it kinda matches the aesthetic though, if it is an actual mistake
It's not a mistake. Error Messages like that won't get rendered in After Effects, so it is definitely intentional
This is an insanely well done video. Great video essay. You gained a follower.
“Astroworld is the most Travis Scott thing ever”💀
Great video by the way
Please do the story of kid cudi!
the editing of this is so smoooooth i haven’t seen a video edited like this in a long time
*I love that you really went into detail about his upbringing. So many new fans that have no idea what he was like in his early years will learn so much from this video.*
Can definitely see that you put special care into this
As a trav fan since DBR , this made my day. Seriously, everything was spot on. I’m gonna show this to my family so they can understand who Travi$ Scott is
damm i’m early. love your videos please never stop making them 🙌🏼
"Astroworld is the most Travis Scott thing that Travis Scott has ever made."
🤣🤦♂️ I laughed at that!
It isn’t even true. Rodeo or days before rodeo is the epitome of Travis
Your channel is wholesome very nice editing
Bro there's no way you have less than 100k subs, this is million sub video quality
THIS VIDEO GO CRAZYYYYYYY YOU SNAPPED VOLKSGESIT
The editing in this video is🔥🔥
Birds In The Trap Sing McKnight had some real bangers. Doesn't deserve these critics.
Try understanding him now
I understand that he's a 🐐
It’s crazy to see this video because all the knowledge I gained throughout the years of being a Travis Scott fan and experienced is summed up in what one video
down with cauliflower
up with Volkswagen
crumplutty
Goldlink from the 2015 list still cool tho
Kinda underrated but yeah he's good
I was just about to comment this
@@Mudayunt same
Fr he relevant
Bro the slowed/reverbed goosebumps in the beginning gave me litteral goosebumps!

"...his public perception is unanimously positive." - That didn't age well xD
*edit: "Unlike many of his peers, Travis is far from a controversial figure" - That video just keeps on giving.
came here after seeing your coment on Polyphonic and wanted to watch your most viewed video to see what your doing. The timing is just perfect :D
Dude same
He gonna be good once utopia comes out, as long as it lives up to the hype but if not I don’t know
I always come back to this video. It's so inspirational and the editing is crazy.
And Ladies and Gents, this is why Sicko Mode > Mo Bamba
Obviously. Why does this comment even exist.
stfu please
Manolis Huerta-Stylianou stop
Nick yup
Anyone else just proud of Travis bruh
bro ur edits and everything else is just perfecttt. idk why but u are underrated sfm u deserve more.
Birds is one of my faves tho 🥺
listen to rip screw
Birds is underrated
Just discovered this, definitely earned a sub
I come back here when i need motivation, thank you for this video Volksgeist 🙌
This is my top 10 Travis songs.
1. 90210
2. Never Catch Me
3. Oh My Dis Side
4. Drugs you should try it
5. The Prayer
6. Skyfall
7. Skeletons
8. Maria I’m Drunk
9. Antidote
10. Pornography
Even after the years this comment is accurate
I literally live in the neighborhood he grew up in, it’s the suburbs. Sure there’s bad apples selling weed out here but it’s not that bad lol
Don’t be so tight. He stayed in meadow creek coming up in mo city. been here almost 14 years, the neighborhood has always been retired old people and some teenagers who smoke. It not as hard as this dude’s video says.
Your visuals are unbelievable!! I subscribed because you deserve my attention!
Love hearing about an artist's story
New found respect for Travis..
I'm motivated!
I be so tired of the Birds In The Trap disrespect man! That album is amazing
I just want you to know that your editing is awesome! Keep up the good work. You are very underrated
