Travis Scott’s “DAYS BEFORE RODEO” Projected To Go Number One Again Thanks To New Wave Of Sales

by

The reissuing of Travis Scott’s DAYS BEFORE RODEO has been a rollercoaster of emotions. It went from pure jubilance to gut-wrenching heartbreak and anger. Those feelings were certainly prevalent during the uber-competitive race to the top of the Billboard Hot 200 chart. Initially, Travis was behind by 100,000 units to Sabrina Carpenter’s Short n’ Sweet. Then a massive surge in sales eventually projected him to narrowly beat the pop singer. However, due to some recounting, one of Nicki Minaj’s new favorite artists would go onto to hold off the 10-year-old mixtape by just 1,000 copies.

Things would only continue to get worse for La Flame and his fans, though. DBR would then suffer the biggest sales percentage drop-off over the last decade for an album that remained on the Billboard chart. It went from number two to 30, and now, it’s currently at 106, according to HipHopDX. But HITS Daily Double has some incredibly shocking news. With shipments of vinyls making their way to consumers as we speak, DAYS BEFORE RODEO is now looking at a number one projection once again.

Travis Scott’s DAYS BEFORE RODEO Goes From Historic Low To Incredible High

As it stands, Travis Scott’s beloved project is on pace to move 130,000, with 125,000 of them being pure sales. This is currently enough to outpace Sabrina, who has been holding the number one spot for three consecutive weeks. Her album is looking to sell around 101,000. Fans make take this news with a grain of a salt, but we would be utterly shocked if Scott didn’t finally get to the top of the heap.

Future Releases Tracklist For Upcoming Album “Mixtape Pluto”

by

Future is seemingly giving fans new Mixtaple Pluto information every day. The rapper dropped a brand new snippet titled “Ski” on Monday, and now, he’s blessed social media timelines with an official tracklist. Mixtape Pluto will be 17 songs in total, and feature numerous songs that Future has teased over the past few weeks. These songs include “Lil Demon” and “South of France,” a highly anticipated collab with Travis Scott.

Future has done a great job of building up anticipation for the album. Mixtape Pluto is a great title, for one. The snippets have also been carefully selected to bring fans back to the rapper’s legendary mid 2010s run of mixtapes. Hard-hitting instrumentals and lyrics that are menacing as they are catchy. It’s the reason fans have been so enamored with the aforementioned snippets. “South of France” has even been teased with a music video that includes behind the scenes footage. The rapper didn’t include any additional features on the tracklist, however. Fans are going to have to wait and see who else makes the cut when Mixtape Pluto drops on September 20.

Travis Scott’s Jam-Packed Brazil Concert Causes Earthquake

by

Travis Scott and lit shows go together like peanut butter and jelly. If the show isn’t shaking the literal foundations of the earth, then it’s not one of his shows. We say that because once again, Travis Scott has caused an earthquake, according to reports from HipHopDX and Complex. This past Wednesday, La Flame was putting on a concert in São Paulo, Brazil, a city that’s seen plenty of activity lately. Over the last week or so, The Weeknd performed some of his upcoming album, Hurry Up Tomorrow, and then the NFL had its first-ever game in the famous locale.

Clearly, all of that excitement and energy was carried over into Scott’s event. As you can see below (in gorgeous overhead shots), it appears to be sold out. About 46,000 people were in attendance and when you have someone like him performing rager after rager, things are going to get buck wild. To no surprise, they did, as local news stations reported shaking that was actual visible to the naked eye.

If you remember, a similar thing happened in Rome last summer right around the release of UTOPIA. He stopped at the Circus Maximus stadium and there a 1.3 magnitude earthquake occurred. With all of this excitement still around his fourth studio album, Scott sees that fans are “FE!N[ing]” for more, which is why he’s back in album mode once again. We can only imagine that more ground-shaking shows on the horizon at this point.

What are your thoughts on Travis Scott causing another earthquake with his show in São Paulo, Brazil? Does this prove that he’s the best and biggest performer in music right now, why or why not? Do you think we are going to get another album from him within the next year? We would like to hear what you have to say, so leave your thoughts in the comments.

The sneakers are equipped with a black rubber sole paired with a sail white midsole.

Additionally, a black leather Nike Swoosh and branding can be found on the tongue. Lastly, it’s likely that some Travis Scott branding would have appeared on the heels.

Travis Scott’s “DAYS BEFORE RODEO” Sees Historic Drop-Off In Second Week On The Charts

by

Travis Scott had fans in a chokehold at the end of August thanks to the reissuing of DAYS BEFORE RODEO. Fans have wanted the 2014 mixtape on streaming for years and they finally got their wish on August 23, five days after its 10-year anniversary. Outside of just streaming the project, his followers also came through in the sales department in its first week. It would go on to have the biggest debut for any hip-hop record this year, moving 361,000 copies. Furthermore, there was some real belief that it would go onto reach the top spot on the charts and outperform one of pop’s biggest acts.

Sabrina Carpenter’s highly anticipated Short n’ Sweet would barely squeeze past the decade-old tape by 1,000 units, but unfairly in the eyes of his fans and the Cactus Jack label. In fact, both sources claim that there was a miscount; however, there was a complicated mix-up, which you can read about here. Regardless of the slightly disappointing final results, the rerelease was a major success in a lot of ways. However, the same cannot be said this week for Travis Scott’s DAYS BEFORE RODEO.

This Isn’t A Good Look For Travis Scott After The Sales Debacle

According to HipHopDX and chart data, DBR has endured the “biggest percent decline for an album remaining on the Billboard 200 this decade”. Sales are down 94.7% which is of course not good, but also plain surprising. Because of this, the project has plummeted to 30 on the Billboard Hot 200. It makes it even worse when you compare it to the performance of Sabrina’s album in week two. It stayed at number one this time through with 156,000 album equivalent units. Nicki Minaj has to be cackling right about now.

What are your thoughts on Travis Scott’s DAYS BEFORE RODEO suffering a historic drop-off in its second week? Is this a bad look after the sales dispute with Billboard, why or why not? Do you think that this had anything to do with this massive decrease in sales? We would like to hear what you have to say, so leave your thoughts in the comments.

Future And Travis Scott Teases New “Mixtape Pluto” Song “South Of France”

by

Future is locked in. The rapper has been teasing Mixtape Pluto for months, but the last few weeks have made it a reality. He put the album up for presale, unveiled the artwork, and dropped a snippet. It would be more than enough to generate interest for an album fans have wanted for what feels like forever. He didn’t stop there, though. Future decided to bless fans with another snippet on September 6. This time, the snippet came with a music video clip and a roster of A-list cameos. Oh, did we mention Travis Scott is on the song, too?

The new snippet is titled “South of France.” And true to its title, the music video appears to be set in the South of France. Future and Travis Scott can be seen recording the song, while cameos from artists who are rumored to be working on Mixtape Pluto get intercut. The snippet only lasts 45 seconds, but fans get to see Lil Baby, Southside and Wheezy pop up during the sessions. “South of France” sounds unfinished in its current. The mix is a little hollow, and the bass that drives so many Future bangers is a blown out. We can only assume the song will get cleaned up ahead of its official release.

Future Teased Some Of His Other Album Collaborators

Even in its rough form, though, “South of France” sounds promising. The beat knocks, Future sounds as reckless and cavalier as you’d want him to for an album called Mixtape Pluto. The snippet doesn’t include any vocals from Travis Scott. That said, the Houston rapper can be seen dancing to the beat and getting ready to record his vocals. He’s going to sound great over the beat that Future has provided him with. In tandem with “Lil Demon,” Future’s other snippet, Mixtape Pluto is going to be exactly what the fans have been hoping for.

Future isn’t the only one in album mode. Travis Scott recently confirmed that he was back in the studio during an interview with Cultured. “I’m back in album mode,” he revealed. “I’ve been working on music and sh*t every day on tour. When I’m doing the stadiums, because they’re sold out, I can see the music for what it is. I’m f**king amped.” Between Future’s impending release and whatever Travis Scott has in store, the rest of 2024 is looking pretty good for hip hop fans.

Nicki Minaj Sent Sabrina Carpenter A Bouquet For Outselling Travis Scott

Sabrina Carpenter’s album Short N’ Sweet barely managed to edge out Travis Scott’s tape Days Before Rodeo on this week’s edition of the Billboard 200 chart, earning the approval of Nicki Minaj.

The recording industry can be a competitive business, but no one takes that competition more seriously than Nicki and her minions. And while she’s usually the one in the lead on any given release week, she apparently still considers her No. 2 debut for Queen in 2018 a black spot on her record because of Travis Scott’s Astroworld. Nicki has clearly been out for revenge ever since, and this past week, she finally got it, in a way, thanks to Sabrina Carpenter. Nicki thanked Carpenter for avenging her by sending her a massive bouquet of white roses. Carpenter posted a photo of the bouquet on her Instagram Story with a caption reading, “I adore u + the barbz :’) this is so thoughtful!!!! and these are so beautiful.”

Carpenter took up the challenge of putting Travis in his place when the release dates for their respective projects — her album Short N’ Sweet and his mixtape Days Before Rodeo — fell on the same day. “This one’s for Nicki,” she wrote on Twitter, reminding fans of Nicki’s 2018 feud with the Houston rapper for outselling her by skirting Billboard‘s counting rules (she did the same, but that’s neither here nor there for Nicki. If she wins, it’s because she’s the best; if she loses, there was a conspiracy rife with chicanery to keep her from her deserved success). Nicki clearly appreciates the thought.

Travis Scott Is ‘Back In Album Mode’ And He’s ‘F*cking Amped’ About It

Travis Scott just re-issued his classic mixtape Days Before Rodeo, but now, he’s in album mode.

During a conversation with artist George Condo for Cultured, Scott said, “I’m gonna be back in New York. I’m back in album mode. I’ve been working on music and sh*t every day on tour. When I’m doing the stadiums, because they’re sold out, I can see the music for what it is. I’m f*cking amped.”

He also spoke about his creative history and process, saying:

The sparseness in jazz, folk, or anything in those genres — even the soulfulness of blues, and the storytelling of blues, or the rawness — it’s kind of the base foundation. I won’t say that it’s the base foundation of music, but to me, the ideas that some of those artists were implementing were such game-changers — a full Renaissance of their own. I’m trying to carry that wavelength throughout my music.

I started in producing, making beats. I haven’t stopped making beats for other artists and for myself. It’s been important for me to get back into that and remind people that’s my foundation. I remember working on my first mixtape ever. A lot of people didn’t understand where I was trying to take things, and for me to be able to do that now, at this level, is ill. When I made the ‘Fe!n’ beat, I was like, ‘Yo, this is crazy, being able to put forth the same energy since day one.’”

Travis Scott Fans Convinced That Billboard Orchestrated A Heist To Let Sabrina Carpenter Go Number One

by

Whenever Travis Scott falls just short of winning something, it feels like his fans can be more upset than him. That seems to be the case, at least for now. If you head over to X (formerly Twitter), you are going to see a lot of angry reactions over Sabrina Carpenter narrowly defeating La Flame in the intense sales battle. Overall, that isn’t really news. However, what is interesting is the fact that fans of Travis Scott are accusing Billboard of tampering with the final results. According to an account by the name of In The Mix, they came across some apparent video evidence of this “robbery”.

In the allegedly accurate footage, a user is navigating the Music Connect platform and heads over to a “Daily Billboard 200” data base. After clicking on it, it shows the week in which the sales would be tallied, August 22-29. As you’ll be able to see, the results before the final recount show that Scott was actually ahead of Sabrina, 365,817 to 354,436. Of course, the official results were 362,000 to 361,000 in favor of the pop hitmaker. Furthermore, it shows that DAYS BEFORE RODEO was whaling on Short n’ Sweet in terms of physical sales, 333,582 to 177,382.

Travis Scott Fans Claim To Have Proof Of Billboard’s Shenanigans

Conversely, the actual numbers were 331,000 for Scott and 184,000 for Carpenter. For context, the clip was posted on X about 12 hours ago, quite a bit after the last count was announced. Overall, the fans could have valid evidence, but it’s definitely hard to be 100% sure. Billboard, among others, go back forth on whether or not include bundles, deluxe versions, and etc. into the total. In this case, if this video is true then there may be a chance that they removed some sales. Or there could have been an honest mistake and they did in fact include all of the different packages each artist offered.

What are your thoughts on Travis Scott fan’s asserting that Billboard had something to do with Sabrina Carpenter beating him in sales? With the supposed evidence above, do you think they have a point? Or did the outlet make a genuine mistake with the final tally? We would like to hear what you have to say, so leave your thoughts in the comments. Additionally, always keep it locked in with HNHH for all of the latest news surrounding Travis Scott.

Travis Scott Ironically Ties A Previously Held Chart Debut Record By Nicki Minaj

by

Travis Scott fought Sabrina Carpenter to the very end. However, he fell just shy of squeaking past the Pennsylvania pop star for the number one spot on the Billboard Hot 200. Still, though, moving 361,000 copies of a 10-year-old mixtape compared to a highly anticipated brand-new record from one of the hottest artists is nothing to be disappointed in. It just goes to prove that he’s one of the biggest rappers, but also superstar musician overall. AllHipHop has the stats to prove that, as Scott is now in the top five for biggest debuts of 2024 in terms of sales. He slots in at number four, just behind Sabrina, Beyonce’s COWBOY CARTER, and the phenom Taylor Swift with The Tortured Poets Department.

In addition to this, Travis is also tying old records. Back in 2021, Nicki Minaj also rereleased an old mixtape. She reissued 2009’s Beam Me Up Scotty and by doing so, The Queen of New York went on to have the highest charting debut in that regard. It went number two in late May with around 80,000 units sold. Obviously, Scott obliterated the sales numbers, but he also a little bit stiffer competition.

Travis Scott & Nicki Minaj Seem To Always Be Linked Somehow

According to Rap-Up, Nicki was vying for number one with J. Cole’s The Off-Season, which had 288,000 buyers. That’s nearly 100,000 more than Sabrina’s 362,000 album equivalent sales. Overall, though, it’s kind of funny how Travis and Nicki continue to be linked. The have a couple of collaborations, but the latter still seems to try and destroy him in any way possible.

What are your thoughts on Travis Scott tying Nicki Minaj for the highest chart debut for a reissued mixtape? Do you believe that La Flame was robbed of going number one yesterday, why or why not?
