A$AP Rocky made waves during his headlining set at Rolling Loud Miami, as he appeared to take shots at fellow rapper Travis Scott. Rocky previewed three unreleased songs from his upcoming album, “Don’t Be Dumb,” and in one of the tracks, he called out an unnamed artist who has allegedly been copying his style for too long. Many fans speculate that the artist in question is Travis Scott.
Rocky didn’t hold back in his lyrics, stating, “First you stole my flow, so I stole your bitch/Then you stole my style, I need at least like 10 percent/ All due disrespect, I hope you take offense!!!” These lines imply that he believes Travis has been imitating his flow and stealing his style, and Rocky is not happy about it.
This rivalry between the two rappers dates back to 2015 when Travis was in a relationship with Rocky’s ex-girlfriend Rihanna. According to TMZ, Rocky sees this relationship as the start of their feud. Additionally, that same year, Travis got upset when someone mistook him for Rocky in NYC, leading to a confrontation. Rocky blames Travis for that incident as well.
Interestingly, back in 2021, Rocky publicly stated that he didn’t take offense to Travis copying his style and considered it flattery. However, his recent lyrics suggest a change in tone and a more aggressive stance towards Travis. It appears that Rocky is leveraging this controversy to generate buzz and promote his upcoming album, “Don’t Be Dumb.”
Meanwhile, Travis has his own project to promote. During his Rolling Loud set, he announced that his highly anticipated album, “Utopia,” will be released on Friday. The clash between the two artists adds an extra layer of excitement and anticipation for their new music releases.
The rivalry between Rocky and Travis has garnered attention on social media, with fans eagerly discussing the situation. A recent tweet from REVOLT TV shared a video clip of Rocky talking about people accusing Travis of stealing his style. The tweet invited viewers to tune into an episode of “Drink Champs” featuring Rocky for more insights. This tweet further fueled the ongoing conversation surrounding the feud.
As fans eagerly await the releases of Rocky’s “Don’t Be Dumb” and Travis’ “Utopia,” it’s clear that the rivalry between these two artists has reached a new level. Whether it’s a genuine disagreement over copying styles or a clever marketing strategy, both rappers have managed to generate buzz and create anticipation for their music. It’s a battle of lyrical prowess that fans are excited to witness.
In conclusion, A$AP Rocky took shots at Travis Scott during his Rolling Loud Miami set, previewing songs from his upcoming album and accusing an unnamed artist of stealing his style. Many fans believe that the targeted artist is Travis Scott. This rivalry between the two rappers originated from Travis’ past relationship with Rocky’s ex-girlfriend Rihanna and a previous incident where Travis was mistaken for Rocky. While Rocky previously downplayed the alleged imitation as flattery, his recent lyrics suggest a more aggressive stance. Both artists are using this controversy to promote their respective music projects, with Travis announcing the release of his album “Utopia.” The feud has sparked discussions among fans on social media, creating further excitement for the upcoming music releases.
