Travis Scott Teases ‘Amazing’ New Album: ‘Pushing Myself … to Make Something I Haven’t Made Before’

La Flame also discussed Cactus Jack signing a first-look deal with a movie studio in a new interview.

Travis Scott is riding high after starring in Christopher Nolan’s The Odyssey. La Flame’s winning streak continued on Wednesday (July 22) when he graced the cover of Variety, which saw him dish on a multitude of topics, including his anticipated forthcoming album and first-look deal with Paramount Pictures.

“I’m here to conquer who I am as an artist. In these side quests — these cool things I like to do — I never lose sight of the main goal. I’m still trying to do every stadium in the United States and the world,” Scott said, shedding light into his mindset as he heads into his next record, which will be his first since 2023’s Utopia. “I’m working on an album right now, and that’s f–king amazing. And I’m constantly pushing myself to push the sonics to try to make something that I haven’t made before.”
