Following the Astroworld incident, where 10 people died and over 300 were injured during a crowd surge, Travis remained quiet on the album, out of respect for those affected by the incident.
However, on December 20th, Travis made his first small step over by reviving the rollout for his upcoming album Utopia changing his Instagram bio to include “Utopia” once again.
In June 2021, Scott teased more details on the sound of Utopia. “I’m in this new album mode where it’s like psychedelic rock,” Scott told WWD. “So even just like the field of cactuses and mushrooms, you might get tripped out.”
In a previous interview with I-D Magazine, the ‘Goosebumps’ rapper explained that he is developing a new sound for his upcoming project.
Travis Scott initially teased ‘Utopia’ for the first time on in late summer 2020.
On the second year anniversary of his ‘ASTROWORLD’ release, he celebrated it on social media while cryptically teasing his new album ‘Utopia’.
