Cudi’s signature humming style and multi-layered vocals acted as an instrument overlaying the typically sinister trap beat that we have come to expect from Travis. The best track on the album was by far the foreboding nightmarish trap lullaby that is “Through the Late Night” featuring self-proclaimed stoner-loner, Kid Cudi. Although there was a long list of producers and features, the songs all ended up meshing into one, with a very small amount of standout tracks to reference. Mike Dean, Wondagurl, and Cardo, are just some of the producers who worked on BITSM, with all of them contributing to the dark and ominous sounds that took over the entirety of the album.

Forest, and Roy Woods all lend their voices to the 14-track album. Andre 3000, Blac Youngsta, Nav, Cassie, Kendrick Lamar, 21 Savage, Bryson Tiller, Kid Cudi, Young Thug, Quavo, The Weeknd, K. His mixtape Days Before the Rodeo, which I believe constitutes some of his best work, brings forth this same sentiment of creating two completely opposite works of art in a single track.īITSM had a set of unique features that all worked fairly well on their respective songs. The sonic version of the classic devil on one shoulder and angel on the other was told through all of the tracks on Rodeo with each one bringing something new to the table. Tracks like “90210” and “Oh My Dis Side” were gorgeous masterpieces that showed Travis’s dual genius, in that one-half would be a sinister devilish beat then would somehow manifest into a light heavenly piece. Travis’s previous full-length studio album, Rodeo, had plenty of standout songs and also was an ode to what makes Travis such a genius in what he does. After my fangirl filter wore off and I put my journalist glasses on, I realized that although BITSM produces banger after banger of danceable music, it is not Travis Scott’s best album, in fact, it is his worst one by a long shot. Upon first listen to the album, I milly-rocked to every track and shared the sentiments of so many YouTubers and bloggers who felt that BITSM was the in the running for the most lit album of the year. As a major fan of Travis Scott, I was one of the super hype dark-trap music enthusiasts who scrambled to listen to his Rodeo follow-up, Birds in the Trap Sing McKnight.
