Travis Scott Rebels Against The Labels, Leaks "Pick Up The Phone"

Travis Scott (who has quietly dropped the $ from his name) has been doing a superb job of keeping us on pins and needles, pending the release of his upcoming project, Birds in the Trap Sing McKnight, which is said to be the prequel to his sophomore album, Astroworld, as announced during a recent stop on Rihanna’s ANTI World Tour.

If you were able to go to any of the ANTI shows, you might have been lucky enough to hear a preview of a song that features not only La Flame himself, but also Quavo and frequent collaborator, Young Thug.

Well…

Late last night, while you were probably fast asleep, Travis Scott unloaded the full version of that song, titled “Pick Up The Phone”. The song was supposed to be made available for purchase on iTunes, but discrepancies with Travis’ label seemed to hinder things a bit, prompting him to leak the song himself.

“THIS SONG WAS SUPPOSE TO GO TO ITUNES BUT LABELS ARE MAKEING THIS MORE COMPLICATED THAN IT ACTUALLY NEED TO BE THIS WAS GONA BE MY SINGLE BUT NOW IM GIVING A WAY FOR THE KIDS P.S. THEY MIGHT TAKE THIS DOWN CAUSE THEY DONT WANT KIDS TO EAT FUCK IT GOOD NIGHT BIRDS IN THE TRAP SING MCKNIGHT SOO”

Just like he predicted, the song has been removed from his SoundCloud page, but you can — and definitely should — still run “Pick Up The Phone”, below. Song of the Summer candidate, much?
