What exactly does Travis Scott do? Astroworld reference tracks leak

[colicolicoli]

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

 

[Kilgore Trout]

He’s a producer

 

[Kliq_Souf]

 

[Insensitive]

Well in that case.
CyHi is still dope as fukk.

But in this world of Deep Fakes, I don't know.

 

[Clapsteel O'Neal]

The guy is cherry Kanye...i been said this for years.

 

[colicolicoli]

He’s a producer

Only 4 out of 17 songs on Astroworld has him listed as a producer.

 

[Shadow King]

He's Kanye and Drake's Frankenstein with a bit of Future stitched in.

 

[Larry]

Tory Lanez literally wrote entire songs on days before rodeo


This ain’t shocking

 

[Pure Water]

He's the image.

 

[Low End Derrick]

Same thing a Kanye, Dre, Drake, Puff, etc...

 

[Piff Perkins]

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.

 

[Ashtrey]

He's an organizer like DJ Khaled who presents ideas

 

[Danktoker94]

He's been accused a lot by even local cats in Texas for stealing music and melodies I member it was a heavy rumor going around that days before rodeo was heavily written for him he's essentially an image I feel like he's a poor mans kanye

 

[Malcolmxxx_23]

Hes a walking production
Not a true artisit

Glorified sound engineer with dreads

 

[KingBeez]

CyHi Lowkey is one of the best writers of our generation if you include his ghost writing works for Kanye and Travis
