We’ve got Goosebumps just thinking about it.
Travis Scott is heading to Dubai. Fresh off the stage from his Circus Maximus world tour stop in Qatar, the American rapper is set for an exclusive appearance at SKY2.0 in Dubai Design District for a one-off show on Saturday, 17 May.
Arguably one of the biggest names in hip-hop right now, Travis Scott is a global phenomenon who has amassed billions of global streams and multiple gold, platinum, and multi-platinum certifications. Sicko Mode, his diamond-selling collaboration with Drake, made history as the first hip-hop track to spend 30 weeks in the Top 10 of the Hot 100 chart, earning a GRAMMY award nomination in the process. In 2019, he performed with Maroon 5 at the Super Bowl LIII halftime show and released a Netflix documentary, Travis Scott: Look Mom I Can Fly. In 2022, he joined forces with Drake and 21 Savage on their blockbuster album Her Loss, and in 2023 released the critically acclaimed album Utopia.
The Houston-born artist has established himself as a music pioneer, cultural icon and fashionista known for his outrageous style, frequent collaborations and the sonic longevity of his tracks.
The tour supports Scott’s fourth album, Utopia, which emerged as the top-selling hip-hop release of 2023, maintaining the No.1 position on the Billboard Top 200 for four consecutive weeks and amassing over 50 billion streams worldwide. Moreover, Spotify declared the project as the most-streamed album in its debut week of 2023, while Apple Music reported record-breaking first-day streams for the project.
The rapper is no stranger to the region. In 2023, he performed at the Saudi Arabian Grand Prix in Jeddah and MDLBeast Soundstorm in Riyadh. He also performed at Wireless Festival Middle East in Abu Dhabi, marking the debut of the London-born festival in the region.
If you’re after cool concerts, big stars are coming to the UAE. Other concerts include Mary J. Blige at Coca-Cola Arena on 24 June, Jennifer Lopez at Etihad Arena on 29 July, and Lil Baby at Coca-Cola Arena on 18 October.
