There's a lot of us out here that are birds, man. We all need to just fly.
You can't buy vision, and you can't buy aesthetic.
I don't need a stage to perform. We just need something to stand on.
You can't buy being a rock star.
I was born in Houston, Texas. I grew up in Houston, by Missouri City. It's, like, a suburb in the area; it's middle-class. But I used to stay with my grandma in the hood from ages one to six.
I'm not a gangsta.
I love my fans more than anything.
I'm super nice - I just get excited!
With albums like 'Rodeo,' 'Days Before Rodeo' and 'Owl Pharaoh,' I was really tuned into wanting to get people to understand my conscious and who I was mentally and who I am mentally.
You can't buy swag.
I know what my identity is.
I skipped 'College Dropout' and 'Late Registration' and went straight to '808s & Heartbreak.'
A nerd can call another nerd a nerd.
I design music; I don't produce it.
I'm a big fan of Kid Cudi. He was, like, the only concert I think I went to as a kid. He was on tour with Asher Roth.
I like how fashion is becoming more like music. It's more adaptive to young kids. It's more adaptive to a more on-the-go lifestyle. More street vibe. But I've always been into it.
Every time I go into the studio, it's some next level, man.
I have black friends, but I don't just hang out with black kids. I might pull up with Indian kids, white kids, black kids, whatever.
I was a smart kid. I went to private school in middle school and got kicked out.
You've gotta motivate kids. They wanna grow up. They got problems. You've gotta give 'em that music to make 'em feel like they're OK, and it's only a couple of artists that do that.
When you come to my show, it's like a no-holds-barred, underground Royal Rumble.
My work ethic is crazy. I'm a producer, an artist, and a video director.
Kanye is the leading eagle: he's like the president who stands up for kids like us who have ideas.
I have devoted myself to the Rockets.
I'm a magician, like David Blaine. I could never fall.
Growing up in Houston, the music scene is super boring.
I feel like Houston is one of the leading things in music culture. Everyone loves the Houston culture. It needs to have its own monument, its own moment for artists like me, artists like Beyonce who set it off.
I feel like everything needs to be stylised; that's always been my mindset.
'Days Before Rodeo' is just the journey of me finding out who I am.
I see hip-hop as going in a self-managing place. It's very culturally controlled and artist-controlled. It's not really based on a label anymore. Everything is pretty much in the control of the artist. Which is amazing.
Me being in Houston, I wanted to leave there because it was only known for one thing. That's why I hit N.Y.; that's why I hit L.A. That's why I hit Paris, London. I just picked up basically everything, but I morphed it into what Travi$ Scott is and into what I know is fresh.
My music isn't rappity-rap-rap-rap.
Raging and having good feelings and having fun is something I plan on doing and spreading across the world. I just need air and a mic.
Sometimes I might be sleepy, and sometimes I've literally been sleeping backstage, woken up, gone straight on stage or gone crazy. It's not like I psyche myself; I don't do any of that.
I'm not hip-hop.
My whole story is straight mythical. It's tangible, but it's also what life could be.
