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. At the height of his career, he emerged as one of the globe’s highest-paid and most popular rappers. During a touring year, he can accumulate total earnings easily ranging from $40 to $60 million through his various ventures. Sadly, Travis attracted significant negative media coverage after the Astroworld Festival catastrophe in November 2021, which resulted in the demise of ten individuals. Additionally, his relationship with Kylie Jenner is noteworthy; they began dating in 2017 and share two children.

Scott is well-recognized for his unique fusion of hip-hop, trap, and psychedelic sounds. He first garnered major attention with his 2013 mixtape “Owl Pharaoh” and followed it up with “Days Before Rodeo” in 2014. His debut studio album “Rodeo,” which hit the market in 2015, established his identity as an avant-garde artist, featuring chart-topping hits such as “Antidote.” His next albums, “Birds in the Trap Sing McKnight” (2016) and the highly lauded “Astroworld” (2018), considerably elevated his fame. “Astroworld” not only snatched the Best Rap Album award at the Billboard Music Awards but was also nominated in the same category at the Grammy Awards. The hit single “Sicko Mode” marked Scott’s first number-one song on the Billboard Hot 100 chart.

In addition to his musical achievements, Scott has ventured into the fashion industry through partnerships with esteemed brands like Nike and a brief collaboration with McDonald’s, featuring a special menu item and merchandise.

Early Life and Career Beginnings

Born Jacques Berman Webster II in Houston, Texas, on April 30, 1992, Travis Scott lived in a high-crime area of South Park with his grandmother until the age of six.

However, feeling stagnant, he moved to Los Angeles after a mere four months in NYC and lived on a friend’s couch while he continued to produce music.

Music Career

Travis Scott’s inaugural solo full-length project, a mixtape titled “Owl Pharaoh,” was meant to be available as a free download in 2012.
