Travis Scott is a rapper/singer from Houston, Texas. Utopia is his first album since the Astroworld controversy and as a result there was a lot of pressure to really blow audiences away. Utopia is very similar to his previous releases, but the songs are very polished and showcase his sound at its most consistent. For some reason, the beats have a very dark feel while the lyrics have positive meanings. This album is much higher quality than the other rappers of 2023, and culturally it definitely fulfills a need.
