On March 30, 2016, Scott and Young Thug announced that they will be releasing their song in "the next few days". I feel like everyone just gets constricted by their parents or just life." It's a social connection trap from what you want to do and how you want to express yourself. I'm not saying that it's a trap, we not in the fucking projects, but it's like a social trap. In an interview with Billboard, Scott explained the meaning of his album title: "My next album, Birds in the Trap Sing McKnight is basically about all my friends and growing up here. He first removed all of his tweets, and announced the title to the album on the Anti World Tour. While going on the road, Scott had been tweeting on what the title is to the album on Twitter. On January 4, 2016, Scott announced on his Snapchat account that he would be revealing the title for his new album at the time. The album received generally favorable reviews from critics, debuting at number one on the US Billboard 200, earning 88,000 album units in the first week. Production was handled by a number of record producers, including Nav, Vinylz, Mike Dean, Cardo, Frank Dukes, and Allen Ritter, among others.īirds in the Trap Sing McKnight was supported by three singles: "Wonderful", " Pick Up the Phone", and " Goosebumps". The album features guest appearances from André 3000, Blac Youngsta, Kid Cudi, Nav, 21 Savage, Kendrick Lamar, Bryson Tiller, Young Thug, Quavo, K. It exclusively premiered through Travis Scott and Chase B's radio show Wav Radio on Beats 1 and Apple Music. It was released on September 2, 2016, through Grand Hustle Records and distributed by Epic Records. Although it lacks the hits and star power, the album will fit well in Scott’s discography.Birds in the Trap Sing McKnight is the second studio album by American rapper Travis Scott. This is an album that can play in the background at a party, which is good because it knows its own lane as an album. This album is a completely different experience from “Rodeo”, where it was creative and changed tones many times. They are still solid and fit nicely into the scheme of the album. In the last half of the album, you’ll see three songs that were released before the album with “Lose”, “Pick Up the Phone”, and “Wonderful”. “First Take” has a very OVO type beat while “Guidance” is almost Travis’s take on the popular “One Dance”. “First Take” and “Guidance” are two songs that are influenced by Bryson Tiller and Drake respectively. “First take” has a very OVO type beat and “guidance” is almost Travis’s take on the popular “one dance”. The song is one of my favorites and the production is great. “Goosebumps” is another dark song that sort of seems like a love story type song with another feature seem from another song from the usual Kendrick Lamar pocket. That soon goes right away with the next song “Outside “, which is a really dark trap song that features 21 Savage in a different type of role, but he comes through with a solid verse. And “Sweet Sweet” ends the first half of the album and seems to leave a bad taste in your mouth. These two songs as well with “Through the Late Night” paint a nice picture for the first half of the album with the melodies, but for the song “Coordinate” and “Birds in the Trap”, they are more trap style songs that can get a little redundant. And on the beat switch, Travis raps a short verse and then goes on to his melody which goes with the beat as well. The Song “Way Back” is probably the most relaxed song on the album, as it’s not focused on the bass but being melodic as well. He tends to be more melodic and riding the beat while auto-tuned is on every song on this album. With “Birds in the Trap Sing McKnight”, Travis isn’t as expressive or in your face as much as he was on “Rodeo”. This is the first glimpse into how this project is different than “Rodeo”. The song titled “The Ends” is an intro that is almost as thematic as the same intro to Scott’s last album and comes through with an unaccredited feature (be ready for plenty of those) from the legend Andre 3,000. However, he seems to contradict himself on the project because it feels like a rushed mix-tape-quality. Mostly since he said he never wanted to release an album that wasn’t album-worthy. “Rodeo” was a tremendous album as it showed many layers of Travis’s musical abilities. Travis Scott has put out a new album named “Birds in the Trap Sing McKnight”, which surprised me since it was released almost an exact year after his debut album “Rodeo.
