From 'Rodeo' to 'Astroworld': Travis Scott's Platinum-Selling Albums Ranked

From the futuristic sounds of Astroworld to the groundbreaking songs on Rodeo, Travis Scott has emerged as one of the leading faces of hip-hop.

His debut studio album was released in 2015 and the rapper has since become a Grammy-nominated hitmaker. The rapper’s highly anticipated album Utopia was released in July 2023 and quickly shot to the top of the charts. The project spent four weeks at No. 1 and sold over one million copies.

Longtime fans of Travis know that the albums preceding Utopia are just as good. Here is a comprehensive ranking of the rapper’s most successful platinum albums.

The release of Astroworld in 2018 solidified Travis’ place as a force in the hip-hop industry. Tracks like "SICKO MODE" and "STARGAZING" dominated the charts and contributed to the massive success of the album – which sold four million units.

Astroworld was certified 4x platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) in 2021 and earned the Houston native a Grammy nomination for Best Rap Album.

Five years after the album’s release, Travis revealed that he was shocked by the reception from fans.

“I didn’t know how it was gonna be perceived,” Travis told Rap Caviar, adding, “This the album that people really f--k with. And this the album people really understand. You know what I mean? It’s kinda crazy.”

Travis scored his first No. 1 album with the release of his sophomore project, Birds In The Trap Sing McKnight. The album included bangers like "Goosebumps" featuring Kendrick Lamar and "Pick Up the Phone" with Young Thug and Quavo – which became instant hits.

Released in 2016, the album serves as a rhythmic journey through Travis’ psyche, marking a pivotal point in his evolution as a rapper. The album incorporates diverse sounds and influences while still appealing to hip-hop fans.

Accompanying the album are visually captivating music videos that enhance the storytelling. The music video for "Goosebumps,” which has over 972 million views on YouTube, was directed by the creative duo BRTHR.

Thanks to the success of songs like “3500” and “Antidote,” Travis had a strong musical debut. Rodeo — released in 2015 – fuses trap, psychedelic elements, and autotuned melodies that showcase Travis’ ability to transcend traditional rap boundaries.

The album features contributions from Kanye West, The Weeknd, Justin Bieber, Future, 2 Chainz, Young Thug, and more. Rodeo also paved the way for a cultural shift in hip-hop.

Travis’ ability to fuse different genres of music and experiment with sounds has influenced a new generation of artists. Rodeo also marked the moment when Travis became a rage-rapper, with his fans adhering to the rock star lifestyle.

“Just seeing a congregation lose their f--king minds to some music, that's the best feeling ever,” Travis said during an interview with Clique. “It's better than any drug, any piece of p----, any friendship, anything you got.”
