Travis Scott Fires Back at Pusha T's Meltdown Verse, Calls It "Crazy"
When Pusha T released his diss track "So Be It" last month, he claimed that Travis Scott crashed a studio session with Pharrell Williams and withheld Drake's verse from the producer. However, in an interview with Rolling Stone, Scott is disputing these claims.
Scott has no recollection of being asked to join Pharrell on the project, saying "First of all, I can't interrupt something that somebody asked me to come pull up on." He further refutes the notion that he deliberately excluded Drake's verse from "Meltdown," stating that it was simply unfinished at the time.
Pusha T's version of events has been deemed "crazy" by Scott. In response, he frames the flare-up as part of a larger cycle in hip-hop where proximity to multiple worlds can invite suspicion. "I've always been a person who tried to put the best worlds all together," Scott says. "And I just think when worlds come together, the music just sounds so ill."
Scott also seems to be suggesting that Pusha T's actions were motivated by a desire for attention and a need to drop his name in order to create a buzz around the release of his track. As he put it, "If you got to drop Trav name for the rollout, so be it."

. Can't they just talk it out like normal people? Travis Scott's response is pretty on point tho 
. Like what even is Pusha T's problem? He's just trying to stir up drama for the sake of it, and now he's getting called out for it 
. And can we please stop with the "crazy" label? It's just a lazy way to dismiss someone's argument 
. Maybe we should all take a step back and think about why these feuds even happen in the first place...
... like 10 million+ in just a week! That's wild. But, let me tell you, these two are going back and forth with some fire 
stats - Pusha T dropped his track on June 1st, and it already broke the most streams for him since "The Story of Adidon" in '18 
... meanwhile, Travis Scott's album "Utopia" is performing okay, but it's clear he's not trying to get attention away from this drama 
.
... while Travis Scott got his start in 2012. That's a big age gap, fam! Anyway, it'll be interesting to see who comes out on top of this beef 
.
. In my opinion, if Pusha T says something crazy about you in a diss track, just own it and move on. It's all part of being in the public eye - you can't please everyone. And honestly, I think Travis Scott is coming off as kinda petty for even trying to refute it all 
and then expect people to believe him? I mean, come on, travis has been quiet this whole time but now he's firing back with some real tea. I think pusha t might've gotten a little too hyped for the rollout and now he's having a meltdown 
. I mean, can't they just talk it out or something? It seems like both sides are trying to prove a point, but really it's just causing drama 
. Maybe instead of firing back, Travis could just say he respects Pusha T as an artist and they can move on from there 
?
. i love how trav took the high road and didn't engage with pusha's diss, instead choosing to focus on the music and his own art 
. At the end of the day, can we just enjoy some sick beats and forget about all this beef? I mean, who needs all this negativity when there's music to be made? 
. I'm not buying into all that drama about Pharrell and Drake either... it's just a bunch of artists trying to one-up each other, you know? 
Travis is right, though - those claims about crashing a studio session and withholding Drake's verse just seem fishy 
. And can we talk about how Pusha T's beefs always end up being about attention? 
it's like he's trying to be the drama king of hip hop 
anyway, Travis does have a point about the music world and how people get suspicious when they're around different cliques 
.
. his explanation sounds pretty believable, especially about not knowing anything about the studio session with pharrell... meanwhile pusha t's meltdown verse was kinda extra 
. and honestly, it does sound like travis scott is just trying to promote unity in hip-hop instead of engaging in a diss war 
. plus, who needs drama when you've got sick beats to drop? 
...I mean, who gets dissed on social media and feels the need to unleash a diss track? 
It's all about pride and ego, right? 
...instead of tearing each other down with harsh words 
. And honestly, I think Travis Scott has a point about Pusha T's intentions - if you're trying to create drama and attention, then that's on you, not him
