Travis Scott recently joined CR Fashion for an in-depth conversation where he revealed some eye-opening information about his upcoming album Utopia.
Sitting down with American contemporary artist Tom Sachs, he went into detail about his overall process working on new music, becoming a father and growing older in it all.
We have still yet to receive one single from the long-awaited album as Travis continues to show out on features for Drake, Kanye West, Baby Keem, Lil Durk and Lil Baby while he prepares for his own project. His interview was not only a fascinating look into his creative drivers, but also uncovers a man who is always ready for the next venture.
We have seen Scott work in all sorts of industries — from cereals to fashion to fast food. As he returns to his roots of music-making, he has become increasingly focused on the message he hopes to pass on with his next release.
“Medicine, nursing, being a better person, talking, language, communication—you know, a utopian state. That’s what my album is about. You think utopia is a society where everything is good: health, buildings, architecture—nah. It’s just about proper lines of communication. Because that’s the dystopian shit we’re in right now. It’s all hate, hate, hate, and all of that is drawn from what? Miscommunication, non-communication, non-understandable communication, ignorance to communication.”
