“I get those billions all the time!”
Travis Scott and Kendrick Lamar’s classic track “goosebumps” has officially surpassed 3 billion streams on Spotify, solidifying its place as one of rap’s most enduring anthems. Beyond its streaming success, the song was recently certified 17× Platinum by the RIAA, making it the highest-certified rap song in U.S. history.
Originally released in 2016 on Travis Scott’s album Birds in the Trap Sing McKnight, “goosebumps” is a hypnotic, psychedelic rap track that blends trap beats with haunting atmospheres. The production—courtesy of Cardo, Yung Exclusive, and Cubeatz—is moody and cinematic, perfectly laying the foundation for Scott’s woozy flow and Kendrick’s sharp verse.
“goosebumps” represents a turning point in both Kendrick and Travis’s careers. It elevated them into the top tier of rap superstardom, highlighting their ability to create a timeless, deeply emotional record that continues to resonate. Now, fast-forward, and they are arguably two of the biggest rappers in the game today. Isn’t life amazing?
