    Days Before Rodeo is the second commercial mixtape by American rapper Travis Scott. It was released independently on his SoundCloud account on August 18, 2014. The mixtape features guest appearances from Rich Homie Quan, Young Thug, T.I., the 1975, Big Sean, Migos, and Peewee Longway. Production was handled by Scott himself, alongside Mike Dean, WondaGurl, Metro Boomin, DJ Dahi, Southside, Lil' C, AudioKlique, Charlie Handsome, FKi 1st, Vinylz, Allen Ritter, Anthony Kilhoffer, Lex Luger, Oz, Syk Sense, Tane Runo, and J. Hill. The mixtape serves as the follow-up to Scott's debut mixtape, Owl Pharaoh (2013), and serves as the prequel to his debut studio album, Rodeo (2015).
    For its tenth anniversary, the mixtape was released through Cactus Jack and Epic Records on streaming media on August 23, 2024, which features remastered instrumentals and removes a guest feature from T.I.. The digital deluxe edition of the album is available exclusively on Scott's website and includes ten additional songs that did not end up appearing on its original version. The deluxe features guest appearances from Young Thug three times, Quavo, Playboi Carti, and Mike Dean.

    When you mentioned DBR released in a transitional era of hip hop in 2014 that was pretty accurate. Creative freedom was molding into the mainstream, it was an amazing era to consciously witness. Till this day I say DBR is Travis Scott’s “Last Supper” like da Vinci it may be not be his most famous work (Mona Lisa) yet it is his most impactful.

    I fuck with you and I fuck with your videos but there’s some inaccuracies, Travis was relatively famously underground and was within in crowds when he went to New York but didn’t have luck there because he was looked at as a asap reject and was even close to them, he went to LA and it was the same thing, it wasn’t until he went to ATLANTA working with an already established sonic aesthetic from metro, Southside, Sonny digital, etc that he was able to create a sound based off that established Atlanta aesthetic that made him stand apart

    dbr isn't the purest form , at that time he was experimenting all the sounds from his mentors , Kanye T.I Mike Dean .... , the DBR project was an experiment to see where he could be best at ; is it the hard drums , is it the futuristic sounds , is it the dark melo, .... all of that can be seen in rodeo , as it is his debut album and i personally think that the sound of Travis Scott that's Travis Scott's purest form of music , RODEO for me is the best trap album of all time , it shaped many sub genres of rap , the influence of French rap , many people do not know the influence Travis had on French rap yall should look it up

Yeah I heard Hurt No More and Type of Way on the radio before that but really wasn't feeling it as a New Yorker who moved to the south. Days Before Rodeo changed my opinion on a lot of rappers that I didn't really like much before the mixtape dropped Specifically Migos and Peewee Longway with Sloppy Toppy, Thug with Skyfall and Mamacita, and Rich Homie Quan.
