User Album Review
Travis Scott didn’t just create his album around an amusement park theme; he manufactured the audio version of one. The entire project feels like a summer at Six Flags without the beaming sun and having to wait in lines. From the rollercoaster production to cotton candy melodies, Travis delivers.
There are stretches throughout the album where Travis sounds completely new and improved, like an artist who has spent the last two years training in a hyperbolic musical time chamber. There would be no irony in stating his power level as a rapper and curator has exceeded 9,000. Not only did he summon an array of producers to elevate his sound to territories unknown, but he placed the perfect features across the album, allowing each guest to thrive for the betterment of the album as a whole.
Every screw, bolt, and nail was carefully blueprinted and installed. Travis has never captured the height of his artistic capabilities on one project the way he does on Astroworld. It’s based on one listen, obviously, but no Travis Scott album has ever made me feel this way from front to back.
