I am completely fine with calling this track “First Day Out.”
This week, musicians have been getting extra lit. First, Justin Timberlake was arrested for DWI after a performance in New York. Then, Kendrick Lamar turned up the whole LA with his Juneteenth concert. Now, Travis Scott is licking his wounds after being arrested for disorderly intoxication and trespassing in Miami. I guess summer is officially upon us.
Travis Scott released a new single with DJ Mustard called “Parking Lot” today. It’s kind of eerie how the s**t he says in the track probably matches his reckless actions in Miami.
In “Parking Lot,” Travis Scott talks about going all out during after-hours, sharing grams with his friends, and reflecting on his journey from humble beginnings. He also mentions hooking up with a girl who likes reaching into things.
My favorite thing about this track is the production. DJ Mustard hits us with a bass-booming, soulful beat that showcases his versatility. In other words, it sounds nothing like “Not Like Us.” As for Travis Scott, I don’t love his contributions. His lyrics feel lackluster, and his rap style sounds overly autotuned and robotic. Nonetheless, it’s a Travis Scott track, so people will still vibe with it.
