Travis Scott first collaborated with Kanye West on his project, Cruel Summer, back in 2012. In addition to working together numerous times over the years, they both also share children with members of the Kardashian family. West and his ex-wife, Kim Kardashian were married for eight years and share four kids, while Scott and Kylie Jenner have two kids.
Elsewhere in the interview with Complex, Travis Scott revealed that he's working on a new album. He explained that he wants the project to sound like it's been crafted for stadiums. "I really want to bring the ultra experience to the stadiums, to the highest level of energy. I want to reach the person that's all the way up in the nosebleeds, I want them to feel like they're right next to me, and I want the music to feel like that, too," he said. He added: "I mean, yeah, I put out Utopia a year and a half ago. So, I’m definitely into a new vibe of making music. Right now, too, I’m super into producing, making the beats again, and getting the sound back. I’m making beats and music for other people, and even for myself. So I’m lining all of that up. I’m excited for Jackboys, and my new album, and Sheck’s new album."
