Travis Scott Reveals Sunday Release Date for ‘Jackboys 2'
Travis Scott's Cactus Jack Records compilation album JackBoys 2 is set to release this Sunday, July 13, the rapper revealed on social media Thursday night. 'The Jack is back with 17 tracks full of trunk rattling classics in the making,' the album's promo art online reads. According to the promo art, Bun B is hosting the project, which is set to release at midnight Sunday. Several different physical and digital variants are currently listed for sale on Scott's website. More from The Hollywood Reporter Benny Blanco Says He Shazams His Own Songs Sometimes: "I Can't Remember Anything" 'KPop Demon Hunters' Cannot Be Stopped on the Charts Kanye West's Ex-Assistant Adds Sexual Battery and Sex Trafficking to Claims in Lawsuit The album will drop days after Scott and JackBoys dropped the single '2000 Excursion' featuring Don Toliver and Sheck Wes. With his Sunday album drop, Scott is just the latest major hip-hop act to break from the industry standard Friday release date. Tyler, the Creator did so last year as well for his eighth album, Chromakopia, dropping it on a Monday morning in the hopes that fans would engage more directly with the music throughout the week instead of over a weekend. JackBoys 2 will mark Scott's first full album since he released Utopia back in 2023. That record was one of the best-selling albums of the year and has since gone double-platinum. JackBoys 2 comes over five years after Cactus Jack first released JackBoys back in December of 2019. The first album featured guest appearances from artists including Rosalia, Lil Baby, Quavo, Pop Smoke and Young Thug, the latter of whom was featured on the album's triple-platinum single, 'Out West.' Some of the expected features on the new album are GloRilla, Vybz Kartel, 21 Savage and Tyla, among others.

Is Travis Scott collaborating with GTA 6? Rapper's new ‘2000 EXCURSION' video ignites fan frenzy over mysterious car number plate
Travis Scott is back again, making headlines and leaving the internet ablaze, but this time it is not because of his festival tours or sneakers. Recently, Travis Scott released his new video for 2000 EXCURSION, a JackBoys collaboration, in which fans spotted a car with a number plate that read, 'GTA VI 6.' As soon as fans spotted this unusual car number plate, the pictures of the same started circulating on social media, and fans went into a frenzy, wondering if the rapper had some involvement in Grand Theft Auto VI. According to ToI, the picture sparked excitement and raised eyebrows because a Florida license plate that directly reads 'GTA VI 6' flashes on the screen clearly near the end of the song, which was all it took to ignite speculations about the link between Rockstar Games and Travis Scott. Did Travis Scott tease the audience with the 'GTA VI 6' number plate? The number plate on the car, 'GTA VI 6,' was purposefully placed in the shot; fans debate if it referred to something with the rapper. The subtle hint has left fans speculating that it is more than just an Easter egg or a tease of a Travis Scott and GTA 6 collaboration in the future. Well, the ongoing theories are not totally incorrect, as Rockstar Games, the developers of the game, have a long history of using real-world artists and celebrities in the games. For example, in GTA V, there are multiple celebrities who voiced and made custom songs for the game that were highlighted by the in-game radios. Hence, Travis Scott, who is famous for his virtual experiences, looks like a good candidate for GTA 6. Fans react to the 'GTA VI 6' number plate in Travis Scott's new video A Reddit thread with a title, "One of the cars from Travis Scott's new song 2000 EXCURSION has GTA VI on the plate," grabbed massive attention, where fans seemed to have discussions around the same. One user wrote, "It's more likely that whoever he rented that Ferrari from just has GTA 6-themed plates" While another added, "Probably an Easter egg that his song will be in GTA 6." "It's more likely that whoever he rented that Ferrari from just has GTA 6-themed plates," another commented. While according to one, it can be free advertising, "Probably not. Just milking the hype, free advertising." On the other hand, one thinks, "He probably has a cameo or his music is included, and the paycheck he got for it probably went to the Ferrari." Is Travis Scott an ideal fit to voice in GTA 6? If the speculations of fans come true, Travis Scott may voice in GTA 6, but is he the ideal fit? Well, as per Scott's recent aesthetic, fast-life vibes could be more than just fantasy. However, Rockstar Games is tight-lipped on the matter and has not responded to any rumours so far.
