On the 10th anniversary of his seminal mixtape Days Before Rodeo, Travis Scott is treating fans to a special release that dives deep into the era that set the stage for his meteoric rise.

The Houston-born rapper has unveiled Days Before Rodeo – Live from Atlanta: Chopped & Screwed – Vault 1 & 2, a limited-edition project, which is available exclusively via Travis Scott’s official store.

The release is a treasure trove for La Flame fans, featuring previously-unheard snippets from the Days Before Rodeo sessions and a full live set from Scott’s recent anniversary performance in Atlanta. Alongside the music, the release offers vinyl bundles, exclusive merchandise, and other limited-edition items.

Days Before Rodeo, originally released in 2014, was Scott’s second mixtape and served as the precursor to his debut studio album, Rodeo, in 2015. The mixtape includes standout tracks like “Mamacita” featuring Rich Homie Quan and Young Thug, and “Don’t Play” featuring Big Sean and The 1975.

With production from heavyweights like Metro Boomin and Lex Luger, along with Scott’s own contributions, the project introduced a moody, atmospheric style that has since become synonymous with the trap genre.

In addition to the vault release, Scott recently dropped a long-awaited music video for “Drugs You Should Try It,” one of the standout tracks from Days Before Rodeo. The trippy visual, which pays homage to the late Virgil Abloh, features Scott in a surreal, neon-lit world that mirrors the introspective and haunting tone of the track. Released on August 18, the video coincided with the mixtape’s arrival on streaming platforms.

It comes following Travis Scott gearing up for the Australian leg of his Circus Maximus Stadium Tour. Due to overwhelming demand, additional shows were been added in Sydney and Melbourne.

The tour, which has already made stops across Europe, the UK, and North America, will hit Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, and Auckland this October.
