Even if you don’t like the auto tune style, you have to respect the artistry and creative genius it takes to compose an album the way he did on Astroworld. The production is incredible, the songs pretty much all have a great vibe that makes them replayable, and it’s not something that the average listener requires effort to listen to. It’s no TA13OO or TPAB but it’s also not trying to be, and I respect it for what it is

Dystress bro I like his autotune and old lyrical style. But ppl are criticizing him for the autotune, also he does rap lyrically still, but not that often

And 7 years later I go to McDonald’s “aye yo can I get a travis Scott meal please, actually make it 2”
