Wiz Khalifa and Travis Scott are “Trippin” on their smoking DP Beats-produced collaboration. The ballers’ anthem, which reunites the “Bake Sale” rappers, serves as the opening track on Dponthebeat Vol. 3, the third installment in the producer’s Dponthebeat series. Wiz blazes up the Khalifa Kush and provides some weed-inspired bars, while La Flame lays down the club-ready hook. “All my ni**as chillin’ in the VIP / Poppin’ bottles, you can’t have a sip / Smokin’ loud, you can’t have a hit,” raps Travis. Dponthebeat Vol. 3 also features collaborations with Rick Ross, Lil Uzi Vert, and Playboi Carti. Meanwhile, Travis’ Mustard-produced collaboration with YG, “Dangerous World,” was officially released to streaming services on Friday. قالب وردپرس The post Wiz Khalifa & Travis Scott – Trippin appeared first on MusicCosmoS . from WordPress https://ift.tt/2ONeu4g via IFTTT

Travis Scott ‘s new album Astroworld is completely taking over. Not only has he sold enough copies to beat out Drake ‘s Scorpion for the top spot on the Billboard Top 200 Albums chart, all 17 songs on the record have landed simultaneously on the Hot 100 . With this, Scott’s modern day masterpiece has achieved the year’s second-biggest opening week (dated for  Aug. 18 ). TO THE FANS WE GOT THIS TO NUMBER ONE I LOVE U GUYS SO MUCH. I DEVOTE MY LIFE TO U GUYS AND I CANT EXPRESS HOW MUCH YALL MEAN TO ME. TO ALL THE RAGERS ALIVE MAY WE LIVE FOREVER. — TRAVIS SCOTT (@trvisXX) August 13, 2018 According to Nielsen,  Astroworld  racked up 349 million streams and 270,000 copies sold as a full album.

Aphex Twin came back with a new song and video this week, and that’s great. But the video turns out to be a glitchy mapped-out computer-brain thing, and it doesn’t have any terrifying scenes of anyone wearing a creepy Richard D. James face, so it’s not on this list. Instead, this week’s picks are below. 5. Drake – “In My Feelings” (Dir. Karena Evans) It’s the weakest of this year’s Drake Video Events, and yet it’s still a lot of fun, mostly because of Drake’s performatively bemused reaction to the dance craze that he didn’t mean to help start. 4. Travis Scott – “Stop Trying To Be God” (Feat. James Blake) (Dir. Dave Meyers) I wasn’t sure about this one until Travis Scott was riding on a fire-breathing flying sheep as it destroyed a city. Then, I was sure. 3. Tyler, The Creator – “See You Again” (Feat. Kanli Uchis) (Dir. Wolf Haley) This one is perhaps best enjoyed if you think of it as Tyler doing his version of the first 15 minutes of The Master . I also like that he still ...
