It’s been a hot minute since Travis Scott blessed his fans with new material but last night (Jan. 20) Cactus Jack finally gave his day-ones a taste of what he’s been cooking up in the studio as he debuted his latest cut “4×4” at the College Football National Championship game.
During his halftime performance at the Ohio State vs. Notre Dame game, Travis premiered his new song and needless to say fans were left in awe as Trav gave them something they’ve never heard before. While the song was all good and bouncy, heads were disappointed as we couldn’t get a good look at which kicks Travis was rocking as he’s known to pull out some never before seen Jordans that may never see the light of day again.
They looked like some Air Jordan 1 Low’s but that’s just an educated guess.
As for the song it will be releasing this Friday (Jan. 24) and is up for pre-order right now on his website shop.travisscott.com with a some merchandise and physical editions of the single.
Check out Travis Scott perform his latest song “4×4” and let us know if you like what you hear in the comments section below.

With Donald Trump officially taking back the Oval Office next week many feel like it’s only a matter of time before the apocalypse hits and we’re all left to fend for ourselves, but Travis Scott may be more ready for the doomsday scenario than most as the music superstar done went and got himself a monster of a machine to get around in should the worst come pass.
According to TMZ, the Highest In The Room rapper dropped a King Kong sized grip to pimp out and customize a Apocalypse Omega Rex truck to roll hard in. Dropping an estimated $160,000 (which isn’t much given his net worth), the limited edition Hemi Hellcat V8 Horsepower Apocalypse Omega Rex truck comes with 717 horsepower and is basically built like a tank should the world go to sh*t and we all end up in an This Is The End movie situation.
Still, it should be a sweet ride.
TMZ reports:

The truck’s interiors are as plush as they come, so Travis can cruise into town in style … or head off-road without sacrificing comfort.
Looks like Travis is ready for the apocalypse — whether it’s a wild night out or the end of the world!
While that’s all good and gravy, can Travis Scott convince Nike and Jordan brand to drop those purple or Mocha “Cactus Jack” Air Jordan 4’s that were reserved for friends and family a few years ago before the world ends? Heck, we’ll even take the mustard yellow “Cactus Jack” Air Jordan 6 that he gifted Offset.
Just sayin.’

While Nike and Jordan continue to struggle to bank off the hype of their general releases like they used to just a few years ago, their Travis Scott sneaker line continues to be a hot commodity out on these streets and the latest colorway of the Jordan Jumpman Jack‘s are bound to be a hard copp when they release today (Nov. 26).
Luckily for sneaker aficionados, Sneakernews has a list of where you can attempt to purchase the black and brown colorway of the Jordan Jumpman Jacks a.k.a the CJ1 T-Rexx as the Nike SNKRS app has become damn near impossible to get a dub on. With websites like SneakersNStuff, Dovers Street Market and Concepts holding raffles for a chance to purchase the CJ1 T-Rexx’s, sneakerheads might have a chance to get that illusive win as hype behind the sneaker continues to grow.
Per Sneakernews:
The Jumpman Jack model features a mix of elements combining the Air Jordan 1 as well as Nike training footwear from the 1980s. The thick fore-foot strap is considered to be a nod to the original Air Trainer 1, a silhouette that La Flame collaborated on in 2022. Despite the shoe being completely reimagined in the “Cactus Corporation” theme, the Travis Scott x Air Trainer 1 is largely viewed as the only real flop of his collaboration history. The Air Jordan 33 comes in close as the shoes are still available for close to MSRP.
The CJ1 T-Rexx “Dark Mocha”, however, will not go by unappreciated. Pairs are already selling for double the MSRP, and given the solid design of the shoe and the striking colorway, this latest pair of Travis Scott shoes will be considered among the best of 2024.
Though resell prices are still under $500, don’t be surprised if it steadily rises as the weeks and months go buy and people begin to search for these as Christmas gifts for the special sneakerheads in their lives.

Just weeks after Travis Scott found himself in a pickle over disorderly intoxication on a yacht, the Hip-Hop superstar is once again in hot water as he was arrested in Paris for fighting with his own bodyguard.
People is reporting that the “Highest In The Room” rapper was taken into custody by the “oui oui” police at a five-star hotel in the capital of France after he got into it with his bodyguard in the wee hours of Friday (Aug. 9). Scott was in town to see Team U.S.A. participate in the 2024 Olympics. Unfortunately, it remains to be seen if he’ll be able to see them compete for the gold in tomorrow’s game (Aug. 10) as authorities were waiting for him to sober up before questioning him about the incident.
Per People:
“I can confirm that on August 9, 2024, shortly after 5 a.m., the police were called to the Georges V Hotel and arrested the man nicknamed Travis Scott for assaulting a security guard,” the Paris prosecutor’s officer said in a statement obtained by PEOPLE.
“The latter had himself intervened to separate the rapper from his bodyguard. The 1st judicial police district was seized of the investigation by the Paris prosecutor’s office,” the statement added.
On Thursday, Aug. 8, Scott, real name Jacques Bermon Webster II, was photographed attending Team USA’s basketball semifinal win against Serbia at the Bercy Arena at the Paris 2024 Olympics.
Damn, Travis Scott’s really been wilding out as of late. The man might have to take a break from his recreational activities if he continues to fly off the handle whenever he feels a little saucy. This kind of behavior isn’t beneficial to him whatsoever.
Aside from the incident on the yacht, Travis Scott also got into some fisticuffs with Cher’s boyfriend, Alexander “A.E.” Edwards at a Cannes afterparty back in May for reasons still unknown.
Seems like Travis Scott has been dealing with some anger issues as of late.
As for this most recent incident, Scott’s team did not reply to requests for comment for People.

Travis Scott has just found himself in trouble with the law as the “Highest In The Room” rapper was booked for disorderly intoxication while partying up in Miami.
According to TMZ, Scott was aboard a yacht when he allegedly got into an altercation with other occupants who ultimately had enough of his antics and called the police. When the cops got there they escorted La Flame off the boat and into a waiting vehicle which drove him away. Unfortunately, that wasn’t the end of the situation and Scott reportedly took things up a notch, which landed him behind bars.
Per TMZ:
Cops say Travis told them if he got into the car he was “gonna catch a fade” — and then they say he was driven away … only to return 5 minutes later, with the cops posted up and seeing him attempt to head back to the boat. They say they intercepted him … and claim TS became erratic and belligerent, at which point they arrested him. BTW, they say Travis reeked of booze during all this … hence the disorderly intoxication charge he was booked on.
Sources close to Travis tell us he was hit with a minor charge, which he already posted bond for — in other words, he’s been released from jail at this point. In terms of the actual incident, we’re told he was just partying and that things got a little out of hand between Travis and the staff when he refused to leave … but the situation never got violent.
Travis Scott got arrested for being drunk in public out in Florida — and his mug shot is a sobering one.
Scott was eventually booked into he county jail on early Thursday morning (June 20), which also got him the new mugshot.
You have to wonder what led to Scott getting into it with other passengers on a yacht. Also that’s the most millionaire kind of way to get arrested. Just sayin.’
