Hours After Dropping “Utopia”, Travis Scott Gets Lauded in Front of Nearly 12,000,000 Followers by Trade-Troubled Former NBA MVP

Rap and NBA are the birds of the same feather. The relationship goes way back to the 80s when NBA’s popularity took the next step and Rap was in a fledgling state. Many NBA players and rappers come from the same neighborhood. Artists from both fields can relate to each other’s struggles. Because of the tough circumstances and constant scrutiny, the swagger is also the same.

In another instance, a renowned basketball superstar gave a shout-out to a legendary rapper.

Travis Scott drops a new album

Travis Scott has been a phenom and has nabbed the Number One spot on the Billboard four times. He has 80 charted songs and eight Grammy Awards nominations. He has won multiple awards, such as BET Hip Hop Awards and the Billboard Music Awards. 

He released his album Utopia just a few hours ago to take his fans by storm. This is his fourth album and first in five years. Therefore, anticipation has been at its peak. To grace this exciting moment, James Harden joined the proceedings. 

The scintillating guard posted a story which has the text “UTOPIA!” In the photograph, Harden is hiding his eyes and showing his middle finger to the camera. Meanwhile, Scott is covering his eyes with a cloth.

The story links to a post that has Harden and Scott hanging out in a bar a week ago or so. The caption states “YESTERDAY WAS TOMORROW. #Uno”. In another story, Harden wrote “Yeeeaaaa 🔥@Traviscoot”. This story links to a post where the brilliant rapper is announcing his album. It reads “UTOPIA SEE U AT MIDNIGHT. AHHHHHHHHHHHHHH”.

These updates to his 12 million followers, coupled with Scott’s 50 million+ followers have been making rounds. The Guard alongside Kevin Durant once called this household name “THE BIGGEST IN THE WORLD”. Harden has now developed personal links with the hip-hop maestro.

James Harden wants to leave the City of Brotherly Love

The Guard’s off-court actions have been under heavy scrutiny. Ever since he asked out of Philly, many fans have been looking for an opportunity to diss him. Recently, he skipped Joel Embiid’s wedding and was eating burgers in a club. This enraged many Philly fans, but the 2018 MVP doesn’t care about such chatter. In fact, he embraces it and remains unapologetic.

The refusal to work for the 76ers is reminiscent of his trade demand when playing for Houston. Despite multiple requests, he is unwilling to give in to Philly’s current plan. The Guard wants to go to the LA market and play for the Clippers. The famed nightlife of the city of Angels will also serve his interests well.
