The names of the other artists on the album were initially hidden on streaming services, but they were credited four days after it was released. The album serves as the follow-up to Scott's third studio album, Astroworld (2018), as well as JackBoys (2019), his compilation album that was released in collaboration with Cactus Jack. It is a concept record that was accompanied by a film titled Circus Maximus which was released the day before the album.

Utopia received generally positive reviews from music critics and debuted at number one on Billboard 200 chart, in which it earned 496,000 album-equivalent units, of which 252,000 units were pure album sales. All 19 songs from the album debuted in the Billboard Hot 100, making Scott the 15th artist in the chart's history to log 100-plus career entries. Commercially, the album became Scott's first number one album in the United Kingdom, also reaching the top in Australia, Canada, Ireland, Italy, the Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, and Sweden. The album was supported by three singles: "K-pop", "Delresto (Echoes)", and "Meltdown".

Background and recording

On July 8, 2020, Scott first revealed the title of the album when he posted a picture on Instagram with its name, which would later be revealed to be the title.[1] On August 3, 2020, he further teased the title of the album in a thank you letter to fans on the second anniversary of his third studio album, Astroworld (2018).[2] In October, Scott continued to tease the album in a series of tweets.[3] Recording for the album began in 2019 with Scott posting updates throughout recording sessions on social media.[4]

In a February 2021 interview with i-D, Scott said he had been collaborating with new artists while attempting to expand his sound and making songs on his own instrumentals that he had created.[5][6] In May 2021, record producer and audio engineer Mike Dean stated that Scott was recording music that was alike to that from his debut mixtape, Owl Pharaoh (2013), for Utopia. In an interview with Women's Wear Daily in June, Scott described the sound of Utopia, stating that he is "in this new album mode where it's like psychedelic rock".[7] In February 2023, Scott revealed at the 2023 NBA All-Star weekend event in Salt Lake City that Utopia would be released after Don Toliver, Sheck Wes, and SoFaygo, who are his artists signed to Cactus Jack Records, would release their respective projects.[8]

Release and promotion

On August 2, 2022, Scott announced a one-week-long residency in the Zouk Nightclub in Las Vegas, known as the Road to Utopia from September 17 to 24.[9] In December, it was reported that the album and a world tour would be scheduled for early 2023.[10]

In May 2023, photos of Scott wearing an unreleased Air Jordan 1 Low shoe with the presumed Utopia logo and his bodyguard holding a Utopia labelled briefcase surfaced online.[11] Record producer and audio engineer Mike Dean also shared his involvement in completing the record with an Instagram post later that day.[12] On June 15, 2023, Scott was seen leaving Abbey Road Studios with his bodyguards, recreating the cover art for the Beatles' eleventh studio album, Abbey Road (1969).[13][14] On June 27, Scott updated his website with the Utopia logo and a decoded pre-order link.[15] Shortly after, new Utopia billboards began to appear across Los Angeles featuring a clock and a lock that fans speculated at a July 21, 2023, release date.[16]

On July 9, 2023, Scott shared videos linked to Utopia on social media, including one in which he can be seen working on the project with Rick Rubin.[17] Following the announcement, an insider told Complex that a release date for the album had not yet been confirmed.[18] Scott updated his website again to share tickets for the event, pre-order links, CDs, vinyl records, and merchandise.[19] On July 22, in Miami, Florida, during his headlining performance at Rolling Loud, Scott said that the performance would be the last time he performed the setlist from the Astroworld era and that Utopia will be released alongside a film called Circus Maximus six days later.[20] The film featured segments directed by Nicolas Winding Refn, Harmony Korine, Gaspar Noé, Valdimar Jóhannsson, Kahlil Joseph, and Scott himself.[21] On July 25, Scott tweeted out Utopia's release date of July 28, 2023,[22] and revealed the trailer for Circus Maximus, which would have an AMC Theatres premiere the night before Utopia.[23][24] The following day, Metrograph reported they were invited to a private screening. The same day, Utopia totems were found in Utopia, Texas playing a siren-like sound.[25] Scott posted four alternative cover arts with different versions to his Instagram profile in the days leading up to its release.[26]

Live events

On July 9, 2023, Scott announced a launch event for Utopia scheduled to be livestreamed from the Pyramids of Giza on July 28.[27] On July 17, 2023, rumors circulated that the Musicians' Syndicate of Egypt released a statement, claiming that due to "information about peculiar rituals performed by the star during his performance, contradicting our authentic societal values and traditions, the Syndicate's president and board of directors have decided to cancel the license issued for hosting this type of concert, which goes against the cultural identity of the Egyptian people." However, Scott's manager, David Stormberg, confirmed that the articles that stated that the concert was cancelled were fake. Live Nation, the concert's promoter, would also come with a statement citing such articles as false and that the show would continue as is.[28][29][30]

On July 26, Live Nation Middle East revealed that the launch party at the Pyramids of Giza would be canceled due to problems with the construction in the desert,[31] to which Scott responded in a series of tweets that he was looking for a new date and would be hosting four more listening parties for Utopia.[32][33] The day of the release of the album, Scott announced a concert in Pompeii, Italy, coming soon.[34] On August 1, 2023, the rapper announced "Circus Maximus", a concert at the Circus Maximus in Rome, Italy, as replacement show for the canceled Pyramids of Giza concert, for August 7, 2023.[35]

On August 29, 2023, Scott announced the Circus Maximus Tour starting on October 11, 2023, in Charlotte at Spectrum Center and concluding on December 29, 2023, in Toronto at Scotiabank Arena.[36]

Songs

In June 2021, Scott appeared on the Cactus Jack for Dior Summer 2022 show in which two new songs were played, "In My Head" and "Lost Forever", which feature fellow American rappers Swae Lee and Westside Gunn, respectively, but the former song did not appear on Utopia.[37] In August 2021, Scott signed a picture deal with A24 and teased his own film based on the album.[38] On August 6, 2022, Scott performed at the O2 Arena in London that weekend, where he performed the song "God's Country", which was Kanye West's song that was originally supposed to appear on his tenth studio album, Donda (2021), but it is speculated that West had given the song to Scott for him to use for Utopia.[39]

In May 2023, Scott unveiled a preview of "K-pop", a collaboration with Puerto Rican rapper and singer Bad Bunny and Canadian singer the Weeknd, and was released as the lead single from Utopia on July 21, 2023.[40][41][42] Later that month, the songs "Gold Blackberry" and an early version of "Til Further Notice" leaked on May 11, 2023, with the instrumental for Gold Blackberry previously used for the Travis Scott Air Jordan 1 Low Reverse collaboration ad and later for a Nike Attack collaboration advertisement, but Gold Blackberry did not appear on the album.[43] That same month, Scott reportedly played songs from the record for the Houston Astros, and revealed that the record was in its mastering stage.[44] "Delresto (Echoes)", a collaboration with American singer Beyoncé, was released as the second single from Utopia alongside the release of the album on July 28, 2023.[45][46]

Utopia was met with generally positive reviews. At Metacritic, which assigns a rating out of 100 to reviews from professional publications, the album received a weighted average score of 67, based on 13 reviews.[48] Aggregator AnyDecentMusic? gave it 6.2 out of 10, based on their assessment of the critical consensus.[47]

American Songwriter's Thomas Galindo wrote that the album is "a terrific thing" and "a much-needed thing for hip-hop", complimenting Scott for staying "true to his style, his preferences, and his principles, [and] going against the grain of the tendencies in the viral-hungry world that is 2023 rap".[50] Robin Murray of Clash gave the album a score of 9 out of 10, appreciating it for "its daring, bravado, and continual rule-breaking", writing that "Utopia isn't built through boasts – there's a sense of evolution, of a voice chafing against the barriers we erect in our lives".[51] Ben Devlin of MusicOMH praised the album, stating, "The Texan auteur might have had a bumpy start to the 2020s, but his fourth album sees him doing what he does best".[54] RapReviews critic Michael G. Barilleaux said, "Nevertheless, while it's difficult to get past the wording of Travis Scott's Astroworld follow up, the instrumental completeness and overall energy is difficult to forget".[57] Publication AllMusic said, "There are experiments with ambience, risky beat switches, theatrical and hook-free pop, and orchestration that Scott has never attempted before. The multi-platinum guest features might set the album up for global conquest, but the most exciting moments come when it sounds like Scott is discovering a new way to push his craft forward".[49] Paul Attard of Slant Magazine remarked that the album "operates less as a cohesive body of work and more as a series of show-stopping set pieces" with "cluttered middle section where it slowly starts to feel as if Scott has lost the thread within". The critic stated that the rapper "seems less concerned with what he’s saying than with the emotion and feeling his music conveys. [...] Few in today’s hip-hop landscape can truly be considered an auteur the way Scott is".[58]

Alphonse Pierre of Pitchfork described Utopia as "a shiny, empty spectacle loaded with pop superstars who rarely make an impact" and felt that its "global ambitions sacrifice that little bit of realness he had left" as Scott "waters down the cutting-edge sounds of the past and, in the process, flattens his Southerness to the point that he feels like he's from nowhere".[56] Nathan Evans of NME reflected on Kanye West's influence on the album, writing that "Scott steps back into the gargantuan shadow of his mentor. [West], it is not just an inspiration but an apparition that looms over Scott's identity on this album". Evans also stated that the rapper "sounds maddened by the pursuit of finding that vague world" looking for "the spectrum to enlist pop superstars, trap's A-Team, electronic mavens and alternative heroes".[55] Reviewing the album for The Guardian, Shaad D'Souza stated, "He's a canny grounding force, and has a sharp ear for bringing together seemingly disparate ingredients. Utopia could have used more of that sure hand".[52] Vivian Medithi of HipHopDX said, "Utopia is more boring than Travis Scott".[53]

Commercial performance

In the United States, Utopia debuted at number one on Billboard 200 chart, earning 496,000 album-equivalent units (including 252,000 in pure album sales) in its first week. This became Scott's fourth album to top the chart and the third that he was credited for. The album also accumulated a total of 330.68 million on-demand streams of the album's songs.[59] All 19 songs from the album debuted in the Billboard Hot 100, making Scott the 15th artist in the chart's history to log over 100 career entries.[60] The album moved a total of 1,085,000 album-equivalent units in its first five weeks in the US.[61]

In United Kingdom, Utopia debuted at number one of the UK Albums Chart, becoming Scott's first album to achieve it. It also earned the biggest streaming week in 2023 for an album in the country.[62] The album also topped the Irish Albums Chart.[63] In Australia, Utopia became Scott's second studio album to debut at number one on the ARIA Albums Chart, after Astroworld (2018). In addition eighteen tracks from the album debuted on the ARIA Singles Chart, including "Meltdown" at number six.[64]
