Travis Scott has sent fans into a frenzy with a cryptic Instagram post hinting that his long-awaited JACKBOYS 2 album could arrive as early as this week. The post, shared on April 25th, is an emotional tribute to his mother, hinting that the release of his highly anticipated project might be timed in her honor. In the heartfelt caption, Scott wrote, “EVERYONE WISH THE BIGGEST GOAT A HAPPYYYY BDAAAYYY THE QUEEEEN OF DIS HERE. MI MOMMMMMMMAAAAAAA LOVE YA MOOMMMMMMAAAAAAAAAAA PS I PLAYED HER JACKBOYS 2 SHE SAID DROP ON YOUR BDAY BABY JACK. !!!!!”
The timing of this post is critical, as Scott’s birthday on April 30th is just around the corner, fueling speculation that JACKBOYS 2 could drop on his big day. With just days to go, Scott’s words seem to suggest that he plans to honor his mother’s birthday with the release of the album, possibly making it one of the most talked-about moments in music this spring.
Fans are eagerly waiting to see if Scott follows through with this plan. The upcoming JACKBOYS 2 serves as a sequel to his highly successful 2019 compilation album JACKBOYS, which went straight to No. 1 on the Billboard 200 and received massive acclaim. With excitement building, Scott has been actively hyping up the new project on social media, sharing his excitement with followers: “Jackboys album brazy. I just threw up. Certified.”
But the teaser doesn’t stop there. Scott has also promised to release the album before his upcoming WWE engagements. Recently, he made several appearances in the wrestling world, capturing the attention of fans and prompting him to add even more fuel to the fire about JACKBOYS 2.
WWE Connection and Teasers at WrestleMania
In the build-up to the album’s release, Scott has been offering tantalizing glimpses of new music during his latest appearances, including his time at WrestleMania 41. There, Scott shared an ominous post with the caption: “I DONT WANT A RECEIPT I WANT BLOOOODDD AFTER JACKBOYS 2 I NEEEEEDDD THAT.” The statement left many wondering if Scott’s WWE appearances are intertwined with the launch of his new album. Scott has always been one to blur the lines between music, culture, and entertainment, and his latest posts have only added to the intrigue.
Scott’s highly anticipated JACKBOYS 2 album will feature contributions from a range of artists within his Cactus Jack label, including Sheck Wes, Don Toliver, and DJ Chase B, as well as a number of high-profile guest features. The original JACKBOYS album saw massive success, moving 154,000 album equivalent units within its first week of release and hitting No. 1 on the Billboard 200 chart. Notably, 79,000 of those units were from pure album sales, with additional figures driven by bundles and merchandise sales. The album boasted collaborations with some of hip-hop’s biggest stars, including Young Thug, Quavo, Offset, and the late Pop Smoke. With such a strong foundation, fans are hoping JACKBOYS 2 will bring even more of the high-energy anthems and unforgettable collaborations they’ve come to expect from Travis Scott and his team.
New Solo Tracks from Scott at Coachella
As if fans weren’t already excited enough, earlier this month, Scott revealed new solo material during his highly anticipated Coachella set. He debuted a brand-new track tentatively titled “She Goin Dumb,” with the words “New Shittttt” flashing behind him on stage. The track, which hints at Scott’s continued evolution as an artist, is a high-octane banger in the same vein as his chart-topping 2023 album Utopia. Scott also introduced another unreleased track, reportedly titled “Oh Jacques,” which continues to build on the same signature sound that made him a global phenomenon.
However, Scott has not yet confirmed whether these new songs will be included on JACKBOYS 2 or be part of a separate solo project. His social media posts and interviews suggest the possibility of both, leaving fans on the edge of their seats. Many have speculated that Scott might be positioning himself to drop a new solo album alongside JACKBOYS 2, making this a double-dose of new music for fans to look forward to.
