6 Best Moments From Travis Scott’s MetLife Stadium ‘One Night Only in Utopia’ Concert

Telling any rap fan in 2015 that Travis would be performing in sold-out stadiums across the globe in less than a decade, they would’ve casted their doubts. Scott had a moment of humility when thanking his fans for riding with him as he looked to deliver on his MetLife Stadium show after it fell through due to timing and weather conditions in 2023.

“I told myself that I wanted to do this last year, but they said it was cold and s–t. I didn’t give a f–k, but whatever,” he said. “I told myself I wasn’t gonna give up on the opportunity to come back and be able to do MetLife Stadium, and a lot of people thought I was crazy. But one thing I do know, I got the realest motherf–king fans of all-time.”

It wasn’t quite the 10 times he performed “FE!N” in NYC or Milan, but Scott rattled MetLife Stadium with seven renditions of the Utopia banger, which woke up Bergen County. His last of the first five “FE!N” performances included an appearance from King Vamp himself, Playboi Carti, to nearly break the decibel reader before going back to the track at the show’s close.

One of the more unexpected moments of the night came with Travis scolded those sitting on a VIP riser. It’s unclear if they weren’t raging to his liking, but La Flame called them out to absolutely put this crew on blast: “I f–king hate VIP. There’s no VIP at Travis Scott shows,” he loudly stated in disgust.

Playboi Carti doesn’t answer to many people as rap’s reclusive superstar, but seemingly when either Travis Scott or Kanye West call, he continues to come through.

It was rumored King Vamp and Future would make cameos, and the internet detectives were right on that front. There were plenty of “We want Carti” chants before the show even began as New York has become his second home of sorts.

Carti rose from the smoke during the fifth performance of “FE!N” to send the berserk ragers into another eruption. Matching his gothic persona, the Atlanta native rocked a black tanktop and matching leather pants to go with his fitted cap and towel underneath, like it was the early 2000s.

Playboi Carti’s fanbase is a branch from the same family tree as La Flame’s, so an Opium x Cactus Jack collab is always going to make sense. It’s only a matter of time to when Carti cements himself firmly on rap’s A-list with his anticipated Whole Lotta Red follow-up.

Scott saved a special dessert treat for the day-one fans when performing “Apple Pie” for the first time since 2016. He dedicated the performance of the 2015 Rodeo deep cut to his parents, who were both in attendance, and thanked them for their support of his dream and putting up with his antics growing up.

After Scott popped up for a few dates on Future and Metro Boomin’s We Trust You Tour, Pluto returns the favor stepping out to MetLife Stadium as a special guest on Wednesday night (Oct. 9).

With Carti also on stage, the trio electrified the crowd more than any Jets or Giants game on the same field by performing their “Type S–t” collaboration. The supercilious track originally landed on We Don’t Trust You earlier this year and reached No. 2 on the Billboard Hot 100.

Trav, Future and Carti formed a rap superteam on stage and represented a peek into the A-listers of who’s moving the needle in the genre moving into the mid-2020s — even with all three taking very different approaches to their artistic output.
