After leaving the rap world in a state of anticipation for his next solo project over the past two years, Travis Scott returns with Astroworld, the rapper's third studio album and one of the biggest rap projects of 2018. Travis' first release since his wildly successful sophomore album Birds in the Trap Sing McKnight arrives as the notorious rager adjusts to fatherhood and a high-profile relationship, however, his parental duties and the paparazzi has not tamed LaFlame's flair for the dramatic.

Inspired by Houston's now defunct Six Flags AstroWorld theme park (which closed in 2005), Travis Scott's latest long player finds the rapper paying homage to his roots while stretching the limits of his artistry over the course of 17 songs. First announcing Astroworld's impending arrival via Twitter, Travis Scott really caught the attention of the music world when giant gold heads bearing his likeness began popping up at random landmarks in New York City, Los Angeles, Houston and Atlanta, adding to the buzz surrounding the album.

Packing features from heavyweights like Drake, Frank Ocean, The Weeknd, Migos, Swae Lee, as well as contributions from Mike Dean, Hit-Boy, Boi-1da, Frank Dukes, Sonny Digital, WondaGurl, Wheezy, Murda Beatz and an array of other producers, Astroworld is star-studded affair that showcases Travis Scott at the height of his powers.

With La Flame's new release hot off the presses and in heavy rotation, XXL gave the album a few spins and picked out 20 of the best lyrics from Astroworld that has our rewind buttons doing overtime.
