What Travis Scott’s Album Sales Mean For His Career
Travis Scott’s first week numbers for his sophomore album Birds In The Trap Sing McKnight were only 88,000 for the first week. They were indicative of his place in hip-hop; acknowledged, but not eminent enough to truly make an impact. But now, with the release of ASTROWORLD, things have changed. Travis managed to move 553,000 in the first week of sales, giving him the second highest first week opening of this year.
This is immense for Travis. He’s finally in the big boy league now, aligning himself with names like Drake and J. Cole when it comes to rappers that can do numbers. This is a seldom feat; most artists aren’t able to move more than 100,000 first week. But with Travis being able to move such a high number of units, it means that next time, it’ll be easier. He finally has a fanbase that’s interested in investing its money into his artistry.
So what changed?
On first glance, it has to be his association with socialite Kylie Jenner. Travis has become America’s favorite celebrity boyfriend who happens to be one of the most respected artists in the game. His rapping capabilities have never been the sharpest, but his ability to create genius music has saved him time and time again. Now, the world knows exactly how good he is.
In the future, just as with other artists who hit amazing sales figures, Travis will only go up from here. Whether he goes platinum first week next time, who knows. But him being able to hit this milestone on his third album says a lot. It’s only up from here for Travis.
LiveSosa – strikes an artful balance between Director/producer, songwriter/artist. The Westside, Arkansas native is just as comfortable and skillful behind the Camera as he is with a pen or on the Mic. Growing up in a household that played r&b (R. Kelly, Tamia, Erykah Badu, Anita Baker, Lauryn Hill) as equally as Rap (Tupac, Future, Juvenile, Jay, Biggie Texas Rap), the multi-talented phenom developed an expert ear for melodies, beats and lyrics.
He carefully honed his voice to become an instrument of its own. A vocalist slash rapper, LiveSosa hails from a place on the map that is known more for gang culture than music, yet he has emerged with his own brand of soulful street poetry and dramatized energetic film style on a mission to put his home state on his back through his amazing film work and music platform.
LiveSosa has produced for many artists and is one of the main reasons Arkansas is on the verge of breaking musically and visually like never before. The Unsigned talent returns with a breathtaking video concept and song “Beast” produced by Forever Lit Films and a music project dropping Jan 26th titled “Scared To Go Home”
