Travis Scott Net Worth (Money & Salary)

What is Travis Scott’s Net Worth?

An American rapper, singer, songwriter, and record producer, Travis Scott boasts a net worth of $80 million. During his peak, he was recognized as one of the highest-paid and most well-known rappers globally. In a successful touring year, Travis can readily accumulate earnings ranging from $40 to $60 million through various ventures. However, he faced significant negative media coverage following the tragic Astroworld Festival incident in November 2021, which resulted in the loss of ten lives. Additionally, Travis is well-known for his relationship with Kylie Jenner; the couple began dating in 2017 and share two children.

Scott is acclaimed for his unique fusion of hip-hop, trap, and psychedelic music, gaining significant recognition with his 2013 mixtape “Owl Pharaoh” and the subsequent release of “Days Before Rodeo” in 2014. His debut studio album, “Rodeo,” launched in 2015, further established his image as a groundbreaking artist, presenting hits such as “Antidote.” The follow-up albums, “Birds in the Trap Sing McKnight” (2016) and the highly praised “Astroworld” (2018), have only enhanced his prominence. “Astroworld” won the Best Rap Album award at the Billboard Music Awards and received a Grammy nomination in the same category. Its hit single “Sicko Mode” marked Scott’s first number-one entry on the Billboard Hot 100 chart.

Aside from his musical talents, Scott has made notable contributions to fashion through collaborations with prominent brands like Nike and a brief partnership with McDonald’s, which featured a special meal and merchandise line.

Early Life and Career Beginnings
