NEW YORK (AP) — Rapper Travis Scott released his first album in five years on Friday, the 19 track “Utopia.” The LP was originally announced back in 2020. The full-length follows 2018’s “Astroworld,” and the Astroworld tragedy Music Festival that resulted in 10 deaths due to a crowd surge. In addition to the album, Scott hosted a one-night-only release of his feature film, “Circus Maximus” at select theaters on Thursday night. “Utopia” was originally scheduled to be celebrated with a livestreamed concert at the Pyramids of Giza in Egypt, but promoter Live Nation says it was canceled due to “complex production issues.”
