Cinematic visual for the Days Before Rodeo favorite features subtle tribute to Virgil Abloh. Less than a week after revisiting his mixtape Days Before Rodeo on its 10th anniversary, Travis Scott is offering a visual pairing for the project’s single, “Drugs You Should Try It.”
Tribute to Virgil Abloh
The clip opens with a seeming tribute to Virgil Abloh as a body-building model poses in front of a neon sign of a smoking cowboy he used on his Rodeo Tour in 2015. (“He’s forever with us, you dig?” he said during a special anniversary concert over the weekend, per Billboard.)
Visual Presentation
The video then displays a warning sign that reads: “Please play this song at maximum volume for optimal effect,” along with Days Before Rodeo‘s track list. The video shows cinematic, slo-mo clips of Scott jumping shirtless under the night sky. Other shots see him smoking a joint, before rapping the lyrics under a red light and drowning in cold water.
Re-Release of Days Before Rodeo
Scott re-released his second mixtape Days Before Rodeo on Aug. 23, bringing the body of work from 2014 — which featured songs such as “Don’t Play” with the 1975, “Mamacita” with Rich Homie Quan and Young Thug, and “Sloppy Toppy” featuring Migos and Peewee Longway — to streaming services.
“Days Before Rodeo 10yr anniversary being celebrated by finally re-releasing,” he wrote on Instagram last week. “Everywhere august 23rd and maybe couple DBR songs from that era from the vault… Im fcking jumping thru walls ahhhh.”
