Travis Scott has been in the game for a decade and has had his fair share of Grammy nominations, but still, he hasn’t taken home an award. In a recent appearance on HBO’s The Shop, he expressed his frustration over not being recognized by the Recording Academy.
During the program, Scott explained, “A lot of our peers everyone’s like, ‘F**k that award.’ I f**k with it. You play football to win a Super Bowl, you play basketball to win championships. It’s what that Grammy used to mean is the idea I hold on to. I love to create music.”
Despite his disappointment, Scott still sees the Grammy as an important accolade. He mentioned the challenges of not getting enough recognition in the rap category, citing the late airing of the rap award category during the ceremony.

Looking ahead, Travis Scott is set to collaborate with Nicki Minaj on her “FTCU (Sleeze Mix)” remix, featuring Chris Brown and Sexyy Red. The highly anticipated remix is slated to hit streaming services on Friday, April 19.
In addition to his music endeavors, Scott’s appearance on the latest episode of The Shop offers fans a deeper insight into his journey and struggles in the music industry. The star-studded cast and engaging conversations make for a compelling watch for music enthusiasts and fans of the artist alike.
Despite the setbacks, Travis Scott remains determined to create impactful music and reach new heights in his career. The Grammy may have eluded him thus far, but his passion and dedication to his craft continue to shine through in his performances and collaborations.
With his unique sound and captivating stage presence, Travis Scott is a force to be reckoned with in the music industry. As he continues to push boundaries and explore new creative avenues, fans eagerly anticipate his future projects and achievements.
