Travis Scott has announced that he will be unveiling his long-awaited fourth studio album, Utopia, during a live-streamed performance in front of the ancient Pyramids of Giza in Egypt. In an Instagram post on Sunday, he confirmed that the event will be going down on Friday, July 28. Tickets will be available in a limited capacity. In a press release, his team described the event as an "unforgettable show that will immerse fans in the world of Utopia."
Utopia will mark his first full-length release since 2018's Grammy-nominated Astroworld. In addition to announcing the performance, Scott also revealed that the album will have "five individual artworks," although he didn't show them off. Pre-orders are available on Scott's website.
