What is Travis Scott's Net Worth?

Travis Scott is an American rapper, singer, songwriter, and record producer who has a net worth of $80 million. At his peak, Travis Scott was one of the highest-paid and most popular rappers in the world. In a touring year Travis can easily earn $40 – $60 million total from his various endeavors. Unfortunately, Travis earned considerable negative headlines following the November 2021 Astroworld Festival disaster in which ten people died.  Travis is also notable for his relationship with Kylie Jenner. They first started dating in 2017 and have two children together.

Known for his distinctive blend of hip-hop, trap, and psychedelic music, Scott first gained major attention with his mixtape "Owl Pharaoh" in 2013 and his follow-up "Days Before Rodeo" in 2014. His debut studio album, "Rodeo," released in 2015, solidified his reputation as an innovative artist, featuring hits like "Antidote." Scott's subsequent albums, "Birds in the Trap Sing McKnight" (2016) and the critically acclaimed "Astroworld" (2018), have further elevated his status. "Astroworld" won Best Rap Album at the Billboard Music Awards and was nominated for the same category at the Grammy Awards. Its hit single "Sicko Mode" became Scott's first number-one song on the Billboard Hot 100 chart.

Beyond music, Scott has made his mark in fashion with collaborations with major brands like Nike and a short-lived partnership with McDonald's, which included a special meal and merchandise.
