What exactly does Travis Scott do? Astroworld reference tracks leak

[Vinny Lupton]

Don’t get me wrong...Astroworld is a classic to me, but what exactly does Travis do?

Doesn’t write
Doesn’t come up with the melody
I’ve heard countless stories of him stealing beats, etc

Everyone who says Cyhi should be a big star needs to listen again, even in that 11 second clip his voice is wack just like Quentin Miller

Another Redan High alum, swear to God nobody realizes how much talent came out of one high school in Stone Mountain

who else came from there?

 

[Wandissimo]

Tried to tell nikkas about this lil cornball for years now. Rihanna got duped into thinking he was some musical genius and her album ended up being delayed n all kinda shyt fukkin around with him. Dude ain’t dope. He not only doesn’t write but he jacks styles too. Even took his adlibs from Rae Sremmurd.

lol i’m dead

who else came from there?

Danger Mouse
Lil Zane
Swizz Beats
Jagged Edge
LaLa
Silento
Another Bad Creation
Youngbloodz

I always just hope that CyHi and people like him (from pop to hip hop) have all of their paperwork in order to get those publishing checks on these hits.

And wasn’t there a string of tweets or a video with proof from some white dude claiming that Travis practically stole most of his Rodeo album?

I didn't know Danger Mouse had ATL roots, but it makes perfect sense now. Swizz beats went to high school in ATL, didn't know that either. Crazy.

His starpower is behind the scenes.

Low key...he basically stole ASAP Rocky's entire swag and erased that dude from existence.

damn.

 

[MollyGalaga]

This question gets asked everytime he drops an album.
the album credits list CyHi on the songs he helped with so he ain't missing no money.
These are just snippets, but people love the negativity/swearing they know about the musical process.

 

[Houston911]

He's the image.

Which is wild cuz he’s not like some super cool nicca

 

[MollyGalaga]

Yall stay picking and choosing who can use writers and who can't

 

[Mortal1]

That's been the story from jump. When he first got in the studio with Kanye, he was playing beats/songs from another artist that he didn't write. He's a curator. Great ear for hooks/concepts/beats/etc. He jacks shyt, makes it his, and the rest is history. Low key...he basically stole ASAP Rocky's entire swag and erased that dude from existence.

That's not to say he never writes or produces anything, but you can't deny he has a team of hungry broke producers he mines from.

I see what you're saying about Rocky but Travis IS from the Houston area a lot of my friends out in Houston didn't like how Rocky adopted the Houston culture and sound so they rallied behind the guy from the area.

 

[CHICAGO]

Yall remember all the controversy surrounding him before he eem became big?

THATS LITERALLY ALL I KNOW HIM FROM.
THERE WAS A BIG THREAD ON IT.

I HEARD THE JOINT WITH DRAKE
AND WAS LIKE THIS DUDE BIG NOW?
