Following the news that, yes, his Utopiaconcert will take place at the Pyramids of Giza, Travis Scott has released “K-POP” with The Weeknd and Bad Bunny.
“You feel like the winner/Late night with you so far/I need you back sooner/You come back on this side,” sing Scott and Bad Bunny in the chorus.
For The Weeknd’s part, the artist sings, “Mix the drugs with the pain/Let the waves leap away/You in Cannes and Saint Tropez callin’ out my name/Snow around in my face/You know I’m high off the K-Pop.”
The rapper teased the single on Wednesday, posting the cover art of a single sticky red lollipop and captioned the post, “La flame Bunny Abel.”
To celebrate the song’s release, Scott snuck into the iHeart headquarters to debut the single on the airwaves, playing the track across iHeartRadio stations nationwide.
Earlier this month, Scott teased his upcoming album,Utopia — the follow-up toAstroworldthat has been in the works for nearly three years — with the promise of a show that will livestream from Egypt. Travis Scott made the announcement on Instagram, and wrote, “UTOPIA LIVE AT THE PYRAMIDS TICKETS AND UTOPIA PACK OnTRAVISSCOTT.COM.” The caption was accompanied by artwork indicating a livestream would take place on July 28 from the Pyramids of Giza in Egypt.
Despite numerousEgyptianmediaoutletsclaiming the show had been canceled, Live Nation refuted the reports. “There have been no changes to Travis Scott’s show in Egypt; any reports to the contrary are false. We can’t wait to celebrateUtopia with you in Egypt!” Live Nation said in a statement shared withRolling Stone.
