Travi$ Scott
Rapper. Producer.
G.O.O.D. Music/Grand Hustle artist Travi$ Scott went from being homeless to producing and rapping on G.O.O.D. Music’s Cruel Summer album in a matter of weeks, not to mention finding placement on Yeezus and Grand Hustle’s compilation tape most recently. The quick turnaround was sparked by West being introduced to his music via a third party, which he touches on briefly.

My manager Anthony Kilhoffer has been Kanye’s engineer/producer from the beginning, and he showed him my “Lights (Love Sick)” video during the Cruel Summer sessions. I was pretty much homeless when Kanye first flew me to New York. Later on, I was in Miami with ‘Ye and Will Smith– I was playing Will my album, he fucks with it. He’s like my homey now. Then ‘Ye’s like, “You gotta come to Paris.” I got a passport and went. It was just me, ‘Ye, and Noah Goldstein at first. We weren’t even doing actual studio shit. We were just chilling, running around A.P.C.’s offices, making music on my laptop.
