Travis Scott Teases New Track “4X4” as He Expands His WWE and Music Collaborations
Travis Scott has been building anticipation for his upcoming track “4X4” for weeks now, sharing teasers across his social media platforms and beyond. Initially previewing the song on Instagram Live, Scott took the buzz a step further with a special guest appearance at the Netflix premiere of WWE’s Monday Night RAW. The collaboration with WWE is not just limited to an appearance, as “4X4” is set to become the new theme song for Monday Night RAW, marking another major step in his ongoing connection with the wrestling giant.
But that’s not all—Travis Scott is making sure that his new track reaches a massive audience. “4X4” will debut during ESPN’s broadcast of the College Football Playoff National Championship game on January 20, 2025. This marks a prime opportunity for the Houston rapper to showcase his new music to millions of viewers and fans.
The “4X4” Connection with Don Toliver and JACKBOYS 2
Interestingly, Travis Scott’s new track shares a name with a song by his fellow Cactus Jack artist, Don Toliver. Toliver’s track “4X4” appeared on his 2024 album HARDSTONE PSYCHO, which has drawn significant attention for its blend of genre-defying beats. Some fans are speculating that the similarity in titles may be an indication of something bigger brewing in the Cactus Jack camp. The idea of a JACKBOYS 2 album has been floating around for years, with fans clamoring for a sequel to the original 2019 compilation. The sudden burst of new music, including “4X4,” has sparked rumors that a follow-up album could be on the way soon.
Travis Scott’s Expanding Reach
While “4X4” is already making waves in the music and sports arenas, there are also rumors that Travis Scott might be expanding his reach even further. According to sources, tourism officials in China have reportedly extended invitations to Scott, Cardi B, and other hip-hop superstars to perform in the country. This comes on the heels of Kanye West’s highly successful performances in the Hainan province. If Scott decides to take up the offer, it could further elevate his global presence.
Legal Challenges Loom Over Travis Scott’s New Releases
However, as Travis Scott readies the release of “4X4,” he must also tread carefully when it comes to legal matters. Scott, along with collaborators Future and SZA, is currently facing a lawsuit from Roc Nation artist, Raye, who claims that the trio stole her track “Like The Way It Sounds” for their 2023 UTOPIA collaboration “TELEKINESIS” without proper credit. As Scott continues to build his musical empire, he will likely need to navigate these legal waters to ensure his new projects are not tainted by copyright disputes.
Looking Ahead
For now, the focus is on “4X4” and the excitement surrounding its debut. Whether or not it signals the arrival of JACKBOYS 2 or marks the start of new collaborations, the track is shaping up to be another major hit for Travis Scott. Fans are eagerly awaiting what comes next from the Houston superstar as he continues to build his empire across music, fashion, and beyond. The premiere of “4X4” during the College Football Playoff National Championship is sure to be a moment that sets the tone for what could be an exciting year ahead for Travis Scott.
