THE SCOTTS

“THE SCOTTS” is the eponymous debut single from the hip-hop duo THE SCOTTS, which consists of Travis Scott and Kid Cudi. The track and its lyrical content feature Cudi and Travis dealing with many of the world’s troubles including law enforcement and their opponents. Both the song’s title and the group’s name are derived from Kid Cudi’s real name, Scott Mescudi, and Travis' stage name.

The track’s instrumental is centered around a crisp twinkling synthesizer and features the heavy bass that is often seen in both artists' discographies.

A snippet of the track was premiered during Travis' live concert event in Fortnite on April 23, 2020, and was released in full on streaming services later at midnight, April 24.

The song is the first release from Travis Scott in 2020 and his first since his label’s collaborative album, JACKBOYS, released in December 2019. Cudi recently returned to solo music, releasing “Leader of the Delinquents” in April 2020, his first single in three years.
