Amicable exes Travis Scott and Kylie Jenner linked up in Los Angeles on Saturday (June 13th) for a little nighttime outing, adding to the confusion surrounding their current relationship status. As we know, Kylie and Travis dated for a long time, during which time they welcomed their daughter, Stormi, before breaking up last October after more than two years together. There have been rumours about them getting back together practically since they split, and although they are notably on good terms, these rumours have been shut down time and time again. However, the courteous co-parents were spotted out on the town together in L.A. this weekend with no Stormi in sight, leading us to believe they may have finally reconciled their romance.

People reports that Kylie and Travis both hit up L.A. hotspot, The Nice Guy, on Saturday night. Although they were photographed leaving the establishment separately, the publication notes that Travis was seen getting into Kylie’s car. It is unclear whether the establishment had social distancing guidelines in place.

Kylie has been busy these days after finally socializing out in public again. Although it is still strongly recommended to take the proper precautions, the makeup mogul was spotted partying at the Bootsy Bellows nightclub in L.A. last weekend sans mask and failing to social distance. She reportedly left the venue around 1:00am.

Iggy Azalea has officially returned to social media, resuming her regular thirst-trappery by easing back into the routine. Celebrating a birthday this week, the rapper shared several pictures of her quarantine fun, including a fruitcake and some new red hair. 

For the last little while, there has been speculation that Iggy Azalea and her boyfriend, Playboi Carti, welcomed a baby boy into the world. However, neither of the two have confirmed the rumors. Iggy and Carti are generally very silent on social media. Nobody can understand anything that comes out of Carti’s mouth (like in real life) and Iggy’s contributions on the ‘gram are pretty superficial, never really scratching the surface.

Playboi Carti may have some competition on the way because Travis Scott is leaving his mark on her page, potentially scouting for a post-Kylie pair-up.

As reported by several gossip sources, La Flame hit that double-tap on a number of Iggy’s new sexy snaps. The timing of this could not interest gossip fiends any more as, just the other day, Kylie Jenner was spotted with her pal Fai Khadra at a nightclub. Maybe this is Travis’ way of getting back at his ex-girlfriend?

Travis and Kylie have been rumored to be reconciling their relationship but, with these new rumors, things could have changed. Does Travis have his eyes on Iggy now?

Released at the end of last year, Travis Scott came through with another smash hit in “Highest In The Room.” The record ended up being boosted all the way to the #1 spot on the Billboard Hot 100 but, according to a popular producer, Travis used a prominent guitar melody without crediting him.

Travis Scott is at the center of a new lawsuit surrounding his #1 single “Highest In The Room.” Producer Benjamin Lasnier, who has worked with Trippie Redd, Desiigner, and even Travis’ artist Don Toliver, is claiming that the rapper stole part of a beat he created without giving him credit in a new lawsuit.

According to legal documents obtained by TMZ, Lasnier claims he wrote and recorded the guitar refrain in “Highest In The Room” in early 2019 before uploading it three times to his Instagram Story. He then started shopping it to artists, producers, and engineers. 

In Spring 2019, Lasnier claims he was in touch with Jamie Lepr, who often works with Travis. He sent him a beat pack, which included the guitar melody. Months later, a slightly-tweaked version appeared throughout “Highest.”

The publication reached out to La Flame’s representatives for a comment, to which they note that this has nothing to do with the artist.

“This is nothing more than a frivolous dispute between producers and has nothing to do with Travis directly,” writes TMZ in their report.

Travis Scott has released a lengthy statement regarding the death of George Floyd and the ensuing protests across the country.

The rapper uploaded his statement to Instagram, calling for police reform and speaking about police brutality.

“As I pace around thinking, trying to find something to ease the pain,” the post began. “There are almost no words that I can think of to properly express, or I can use to suppress, this enraged feeling of us continuously losing our brothers and sisters to brutality at the hands of officers, or anyone with misguided intentions for our well-being.”

“The rage that we are feeling is from direct personal experience and the constant pain of wanting our voices to be heard,” he continued. “To be seen as equal and human, too. We have to change and reform police policy in our U.S. cities, and there needs to be accountability immediately! Especially when officers abuse power to the point where it callously takes a life.”

“My heart goes out to George Floyd’s family and everyone who’s suffered loss based on this type of senseless injustice and brutality,” he concluded. “Me and the team are gonna do everything possible to make sure these issues are addressed on a long-term basis. Thank u Bun for picking me up this morning and helping me figure out ways I can really help move this forward. Love. See you all soon!”

George Floyd, Breonna Taylor, and Ahmaud Arbery are all people of color who were tragically taken from us way too soon. The most recent of these tragedies is Floyd who was killed by a police officer in Minneapolis, Minnesota this past week. Since his murder, there have been protests all across the country and people are rightfully demanding justice as the deaths of black people at the hands of the police have become all too common in our society. 

Many celebrities are speaking out on these atrocities and are urging fans to donate to various causes that will help those most affected by these atrocities. Today, Travis Scott used his voice, as well as his partnership with Nike to help speak out on what's happening. In the ad below, there are numerous pieces of text that urge people to not remain silent. Instead, the ad asks those with a voice to speak up and let it be known that as a society, we won't stand for these injustices any longer.

The festival is one of the most celebrated of the Spring season, but Coachella organizers are finding themselves scrambling to piece together a delayed event. The COVID-19 pandemic caused festivals and tours to be canceled, and while artists have been releasing new music and entertaining fans on Instagram Live, events like Coachella and SWSX have been trying to figure out their next moves for the 2020 season. Initially, Coachella shared that they would be postponing their event until later on in the year, but as the quarantine continues and concerns about safety linger, Bloomberg reports that Coachella organizers are asking artists to reconfirm for next year.

We already know that artists like Travis Scott, Frank Ocean, and Rage Against the Machine were all set to headline this year’s festival, but Bloomberg states that Goldenvoice is hoping to “minimize its losses.” A canceled event means ticket holders will receive refunds, and all monies paid out for the event are lost. Instead, organizers are hoping to roll over this year’s tickets to 2021, and if they can keep the same lineup, then it will make their job much easier. However, a source claims that not all artists listed on the 2020 lineup have been asked to return.

Coachella reportedly generates approximately $100 million in sales, so it’s clear that they’re going to do whatever possible to make sure the money stays rolling in.

Travis Scott was one lucky man back in 2015 while he was dating Rihanna on the down low, but when their secret romance was eventually made public, he was less than pleased about it. On an episode of Lawrence Schlossman and James Harris’ podcast, Throwing Fits, the co-hosts swapped stories with journalist Jonah Weiner about celebrities who hated something they wrote about them. Lawrence, a former editor for Complex, divulged the time he “exposed” Travis Scott’s then-lowkey relationship with Rihanna in 2015, which made the rapper pretty pissed.

“I broke the news about him and Rihanna, which they told me not to do,” Lawrence explained during the episode, which aired on Tuesday (May 26th). “Apparently, what [Complex editor Joe] LaPuma…told me was that it hurt Complex’s relationship with Travis. This was in 2015/2016, I wrote this. But apparently, for the next couple of years, he would complain about that.”

“It’s not because he’s like, ‘Don’t tell anyone I’m smashing Rihanna,'” he continued. “It’s because Rihanna’s like, ‘Don’t tell anyone that I’m smashing Travis Scott, please.’ [It’s] obviously embarrassing as f*ck.” Lawrence broke the news about Travis and Rihanna’s romance in the rapper’s cover story for the December 2015/January 2016 issue of Complex. He’d conducted an interview with Travis, during which they’d discussed “all the controversy, criticism and rumours surrounding his every move.” At one point, they touched on his association with Rihanna, whom he referred to as his “muse.” According to Lawrence, Travis, who also called RiRi “inspiring” and “creative,” had asked him not to “do [me] like that, man,” but alas, he did. Listen to the full episode of Throwing Fits below:

Travis Scott is certainly a pioneer when it comes to creative merchandise. When Scott released Astroworld back in 2018, he dropped a whole slew of merch items that had fans extremely excited. From there, he continued to drop new merch every time he came through with a single or a pair of shoes. Tomorrow, Scott is dropping his Nike Air Max 270 React "Cactus Trails" collab and today, he decided to drop numerous pieces in order to hype up the release.

The themes surrounding the shoe and the merch are, as you can gather from the name, camping, and hiking. As a result, the items that were released today are perfect for both of those activities. For instance, there is a "Cactus Jack" Nalgene bottle, a sleeping bag, hammock, sherpa vest, and even some ergonomic pants that have zippered pouches on the front.

Rosalía and Travis Scott just dropped their new collaboration, “TKN,” on Thursday (May 28th), which sees the rapper dipping his toe into the Spanish language. To promote the new single, Rosalía spoke to Zane Lowe on Apple Music about working with Travis and how the collab came to be. At one point during the interview, the songstress, originally from Barcelona, expressed how thrilled she was that Travis wanted to spit outside his native tongue on the track.

“I really love that he wanted to sing in Spanish,” she tells Zane. “You know? Like you can hear Travis singing in Spanish. That’s historic. That’s history.”

She also spoke about the making of “TKN,” which has been in the works for quite awhile. “We started this song like almost one year ago,” Rosalía said. “It felt like we had something very strong, but it wasn’t finished. And I really work hard to figure out the production and it’s been like crazy to figure it out…The first time he came to the studio where I was working and I show him some music that I was working on…And then I show him ‘TKN.’ And I remember he fell in love with the song…He was like, ‘I love it.'”

“I think that Travis is somebody who has a lot of energy,” she continued. “He has a lot. A lot. And also he’s extremely smart. I could tell you that being around him, he’s inspiring, he’s somebody that when he comes into the room, he has a lot of energy. He has strength and energy a lot…He’s a crazy musician.” Watch the full interview on Apple Music below.

After alerting the masses that their collaborative single would be hitting streaming services on Thursday, Rosalía and Travis Scott have shared a brief snippet of what to expect. On Monday, Rosalía shared a photo of the track’s cover art to her Instagram—a simple image that shows herself and Travis Scott leaning on one another. As the nights are warming up, we’re inching closer to summer and this quarantine being lifted, so “TKN” is shaping up to be the introduction to the new season that everyone didn’t know they needed.

Not only did fans receive a brief bit of the pop jam, but Rosalía also gave the world a sneak peek into the visual. It’s unclear if the music video will drop alongside the single or sometime later, but after getting a quick look, both the singer and Travis’s fans stormed their social media accounts in excited anticipation.

While we don’t get to hear much of what the song will sound like, listeners know for sure that Travis Scott will put his Spanish on full display. In the snippet, he gives a taste of his bilingual skills in action, so this will be an interesting collaboration, to say the least. Check out the teaser of Rosalía and Travis Scott’s single “TKN” below.
