Travis Scott has shared his new single â4Ă4â.
The American rap trailblazer is currently in France, making a series of high-profile appearances at Paris Fashion Week.
Leaving fans and photographers in his wake, Travis placed something new on streaming services overnight â his surprise new single.
Out now, â4Ă4â his the rapperâs first release since his explosive album âUTOPIAâ, which CLASH ranked as one of his finest aesthetic achievements. Our review closed:
The album submerges back to darkness on finale âTIL FURTHER NOTICEâ a song that pivots between digital dejection and defiance. As Travis puts it: âI go out graciousâ. A record that stretches the boundaries, âUTOPIAâ feels like his finest hour.
Moving away from the dark paranoia of his prior album, â4Ă4â relishes its autotune fixation, the blurred vocals utilising Travis Scottâs voice as just one instrument of many.
Some critics have noted the final mix, and the manner with which is treated Travis Scottâs performance â is there a lack of clarity, perhaps?
That said, fans do seem to thrill at the rapperâs every move â and perhaps this is a one-off, given that â4Ă4â is also the theme song for WWE Raw on Netflix.
Showcased during the halftime of the 2025 College Football Playoff National Championship, itâs out now.
