I think that’s what added to the overall better listening experience to the album, I remember the night or day it dropped Travis dropped the track list with no listed features and I was confused as hell, then about 5 songs in I realized he did that to add to how unexpected each feature was which made the listening experience better personally

fun fact since you mentioned the mixing: this album was basically entirely mixed and mastered by Mike Dean in his signature warm and blown out style. It actually took him so long to complete, he was still working on mixing the album up until the very minute of release, which is why there was a famous mistake on the original release of the album where NAV's verse on Yosemite was mixed WAY too quiet on accident. Although it was fixed in the same night, many reaction channels and other eager fans were waiting for the album drop and encapsulated the amazing moment forever in their videos.

Wow the censored version really butchers Sheck's "FUCK THE CLUB UP" chorus on No Bystanders haha. This album was momumental when it came out. None of the features are listed in the track titles, so when it dropped it was insane listening through and hearing all the A-list cameos! Up there with Rodeo for me as Travis' best, but certainly a different vibe.

[@Zekew24]

As a side note with the unlisted features, having all of them visible to me prior to listening to the songs would kill a lot of the hype and surprise behind them. A major example being Skeletons; I went in expecting it to be a solo Travis song. Immediately wowed by the Kevin Parker production, Weeknd backing vocals, Pharells contributions, they all add to the soundscape rather than truly "featuring". Just something I thought was interesting in comparing first listens!

btw the album is called Astroworld because it was heavily inspired by a theme park called Astroworld which used to be in Houston when Travis was younger but shut down. Ps. I don't like a lot of drake shit but most people agree the Sicko Mode feature is very good (including me). U should really do the project Without Warning by 21 Savage, Offset and Metro Booming. Metro is one of the best Trap porducers and this was a surprise drop with both rappers having some of their best performances in the songs, it is also pretty sure and would get u into some more Trap.

[@Twofacex2]

Drake’s contribution on sicko mode is kinda overrated ngl, obviously he helped the song a lot from a marketing standpoint but the only good thing he offers in the song is the intro (which is actually a very good verse), but his second verse is pretty average. The middle part of the song with Travis, swae, and the samples are what really make the song great in my opinion. I never get why people act like Drake carried the song.

Bob, you need to dive more into Houston hip hop. What people outside of Texas don’t realize about this album is how much Travis is paying homage to the city. Astroworld is the name of the theme park we grew up going to in downtown before it was closed in the 2000’s. The cover of the album with Travis’ head is a reference to the entrance of the texas cyclone, which was a rollercoaster in Astroworld that had a giant cowboy’s head with the mouth as the entrance (you can look at the photos online). RIP Screw pays respect to DJ Screw and the entire screwed up click. He samples classic houston hip hop tracks throughout the entire LP. He samples and/or references Fat Pat, Big Moe, Lil Keke, and makes references to Missouri City, the beltway, Barre Baby, etc etc etc. These are very specific, intentional references that are close to those from Houston but may go over the heads of the common listener around the US. This album is about home. With that said, Travis’ sound is unique to himself. It has similarities but does not sound like traditional H town rap. Houston hip hop is VERY distinct (especially DJ Screw tapes) and is extremely influential. Def recommend diving into it at some point on your journey I was born and raised in Houston so I may be a bit biased….

I feel like seeing the features completely ruins the surprise element that all of us had on our first listen 😅

[@Makiaveli01]

When this first came out I don’t think it had the features listed so everyone was BUGGING when they heard Drake, still remember the Akademiks reaction 😂

[@eddiebaez9804]

@@Makiaveli01 ahh man. The Akademiks Drake nut hugging goes crazy. 🤣😂

[@dkarmusic5424]

Drake was not surprising to be on the album to me tho. They already linked up on company from IYRTITL

[@MarioxRodz]

I’ve been waiting for this one for so long 😭

[@thewastedbrains9610]

Now that you heard Sicko Mode you can listen to the far superior “Dicko Mode” 😁

Tidal has master version for censored albums too, mastered meaning sound quality. Check for the M & E meaning master & explicit

[@giuseppescibilia4870]

The production in this album is meant to simulate drug trips as well as a story. It’s a crazy concept introduced to me in a video essay I saw a couple years ago. Completely changed my perception of the album and I think you would really enjoy it. If your intrested, it’s called “Astroworld: Story Telling Through Sound” by Karsten Runquist. Check it out if your intrested, love your videos!

Drake's If You're Reading This, It's Too Late is such a good mixtape. You have to give it a shot! I am also not super into Drake's music but that mixtape is great!

[@whyaskmenoely25]

He needs to go through NWTS first because IYRTITL is all braggadoccio. NWTS is the pinnacle of Drake's songwriting and rapping. Its also his most grounded record. I think Bob will appreciate that Drake. Much like Jon Denton did. JD used to meme on Drake until that album.

[@jordanm7777]

dude yes! fire album.

[@Ramsfan-x7t]

@@whyaskmenoely25 views is better than nwts

[@thelitlighter6297]

This album is like being at an outer space theme park. Ita got that kind of thematic sound to it

[@vinnyvinvin1791]

Sicko Mode was weird because when it first came out you weren't supposed to see Drake was featured so the surprise has since been lost.

I LOVE YOU BOB

Fun fact Travis was a huge kid cudi fan, cudi’s real name is Scott mescudi hence Travis SCOTT

Hey you should really do MOTM 3 I know you have already listened to the other 2 so I think it’s fitting to finish the series

[@swagman2861]

Skeletons was partly written by Ye. A demo leaked recently where you can hear him rap half of travis’ verse, and half of a kids see ghosts verse

[@maddexmartin2959]
