    Listening to a Travis Scott record 5 times all the way through with an open mind? You're a better man than I.

    Of course he chooses that stuff. Which is why he is more of a curator than an an album artist. What's your point? He has one co-production credit on all of birds.

    I think he's a step above curator, but a step below an artist. It's a weird gray area.

    I can't think of any Travis Scott songs where he actually expresses any emotion, it's all just so bland.

    I think to enjoy this album or Travis Scott in general you have to get past what this post is 100% correct about

    Maybe it's because I don't care much about Travis outside of his music but I've never gotten a try hard "I'm an artist" vibe from his music. If he's acting like he is, he should k--- himself asap.

    Don't start an argument with them it's pointless they don't like it, they don't want to like it and they're decided to never like it

    Agree.

    Travis barley produces any of his own s--- either. He hasn't heavily produced a project since Owl. He's starting to get too comfortable.

    Also, Birds sounds like Rodeo outtakes thrown together with 4-5 new tracks.

    I think a lot of you are seriously understating Travis' output on this album. I like a lot of his parts, a lot of his hooks are solid on here

    And the instrumentals on Birds aren't even that good lmao
    Most of the songs are forgettable af.
    Rodeo was actually 1000 times better than this. It was a more diverse and complete project, with awesome prods and each feature was perfectly used (except from Kanye lol).
    I don't know what drugs @BigCountry is on when he says it's a bad listen front to back.
