Starting point is 00:00:03 Now, since this is solely Burner Boy's track featuring Travis Scott, I'm not going to get into, and just deep dive into the Astro World Festival, right? Because this is Burner Boy's track. So let's not dog pile on Travis Scott because of his fans, right? But I just got to let y'all know. On another note, Travis Scott did make history. And ladies and gentlemen, y'all want to know what that history was? well I'm glad you ask in the year of 2025
Starting point is 00:00:35 Travis Scott aka Jack Quees made history with his 2014 mixtape how did it make history well Travis Scott made history as the first artist ever
Starting point is 00:00:49 to reach number one as far as Billboard when it comes to album so his album went number one on Billboard 200 man clap it up for Travis Scott and then you know what I'm saying And then after that, a week after, it fell completely off of the charts.
Starting point is 00:01:08 So that is why it made history because who in the music industry ever went number one and it completely fell off the Billboard charts entirely. Mind you, this is the first album ever. Y'all want to know the Billboard history. Hold up. Billboard. Let me see. Let's see when Billboard was created.
Starting point is 00:01:31 when billboard was created this man's like a created player in the music industry we ain't never seen anything like this billboard was founded in 1894 ladies and gentlemen in 2025 the only artist to ever go number one with his album on billboard and completely fall off the charts the first time and the only time was in 2025 by jack quees webster now let me tell y'all something when it comes to burner boy i'm very fond of this particular artist but of course every time Travis Scott's name come up I got to let y'all know who you're all dealing with as far as the ultimate scammer in the music industry now that being said um burner boy and Travis Scott have a track title Tata Tata which is a euphemism
Starting point is 00:02:20 for provocative actions let's just put it like that it's a PG podcast right so let's just say they are not talking about things that are suitable for kids now when it comes to to Travis Scott when it comes to Burner Boy, I believe neither of these artists on the charts. And by I believe I just fact check, none of these artists are on the charts. So at this particular track, I do believe with this being the single for his upcoming album, no signs of weakness that's set to come out July 10th of this year. This should have a lot of backing behind it. And of course, Lord knows that Travis Scott probably needs to get back on the charts as he went number one to feel completely off.
Starting point is 00:03:00 first time in history i was just you know um making sure you you remember that so anyways um for this particular track i do believe as the subject matter is going to be deep-dived into i don't believe it's like a carty b making the stallion like track but it's definitely something that's very provocative to the point where you know burn and boy travis scott they've talked about these things in uh in their music before but now when you look at it and from a promotional aspect and making it the lead single of your album i would think you try to go with something that's more appeasable for the masses not saying that they have to make like christian music but you know the the the hints towards certain things in the track and it being an ultimate
Starting point is 00:03:47 single because you got to think about it like burner boy is not necessarily in hip-hop right he makes afro beat music him whiz kid burner boy thames they are not in Hip-hop. We have to respect the genre that they create and not the genre that they created, but we have to respect their genre by not calling everything hip-hop, right? When it comes to Afrobees, it is a blend of hip-hop, but it's not exactly hip-hop. And the reason why I say that is because usually in the past, Burnaboy has went insanely popular, especially with tracks that are just more lighthearted, having fun type tracks as it was. I'm not going to say more of a positive type of vibe, but the music that Burner Boy made was more of a happy, go lucky, not really getting into certain sexual acts.
Starting point is 00:04:40 It's just more of enjoying, enjoying nice activities and not being as provocative. But for this, being specifically centered around Ta, Tata, which is a euphemism for sex and having Travis Scott on the track, one could say that he minimalized the overall and gay. that he could receive for this track but that's just me right burner boy also as far as promotion of this track he performed with Drake at I don't think that happened Burner Boy's performance the burner boy performer Drake I don't think that ever Drake don't even go to festivals why has it saying that it's saying Burner boy also appeared on the F-1 album all-star compilation let me see Burner Boy, Drake.
Starting point is 00:05:34 There's no way that happened. Drake does not pop out festivals. Let's see, festival. Yeah, as far as this year. Okay, last night, Burner Boy was dancing to, yeah, he was dancing to Kendrick's diss song only to get invited by Drake as a special guest. Oh, he was with Drake.
Starting point is 00:05:52 Oh, okay. Huh. I mean, you know, Burner Boy's the goat, so you know me. Might as well. Yeah, he was actually on stage with Drake. That's crazy. That is crazy. When did this happen?
Starting point is 00:06:04 July 11 through 13 oh okay well I stand correct I was like there's no way that Drake was at a festival but what he was at wireless burner boy and Drake was going crazy um so shout out to the people who went to the February 18th festival um and saw Drake and burner boy but anyways burner boy is also on the f1 the album all-star compilation Travis Scott also contributed to this track which is why I started off the segment the way I did because if y'all don't know until we get a real sincere and apology for what happened to Astro World Festival because what he did as far as the apology video I'm not going to get back into it but let's just say it was beyond egregious and blasphemous to the point where everybody who's covering Travis
Starting point is 00:06:46 Scott that don't bring up he never gave a sincere apology to the to the Astro World Festival because of people saying because of legal reasons like whole humans didn't pass away at the event right this man should gave a whole apology I don't care what type of legal ramifications would have happened because that was a That was the first time I ever seen something like that. And very asinine, the way that people just, they just scan over. Basically, they just look over that event. So that's why I always bring it up.
Starting point is 00:07:18 But we have more recent news for Travis Scott to bring up nowadays. So safe to say his fans would not be too happy every time I cover Travis Scott. But, you know, I just want to let y'all know that your favorite artists made history. And how did he make history? Of course, you know, going number one on Billboard as far as back in, Was it August 2024? No, September 28th, right? And then the week after fell completely off of the charts.
Starting point is 00:07:46 So, yeah, y'all do have that what you will. But with that being said, click my links here in my bio. Let me know in one of my social media is. Will you be anticipating Burner Boy's album, No Sign of Weakness? No Sign of Weakness is coming out July 10th. And also, what do you think about the Burner Boy track, Tata, featuring Travis Scott?
