Houston-born rapper Travis Scott has unveiled his next big move, and it involves the majestic Pyramids of Giza in Egypt. The artist took to Twitter to announce the release of his highly anticipated album, Utopia. The artist will live stream his performance directly from the historic Egyptian landmark.
“UTOPIA LIVE AT THE PYRAMIDS CANT WAITTTT TO SEE YA,” Scott shared in a tweet.
According to Scott’s official website, the event is scheduled to take place on July 28. Fans can expect a once-in-a-lifetime experience as the rapper showcases his distinct musical style near this iconic site. The live stream of Travis Scott’s Utopia performance aims to showcase his artistic range and push the boundaries of creativity. While tickets for the show are sold out, fans can still pre-order the album and partake in this historic moment.
Among the World’s Most Recognizable Landmarks
This announcement follows a recent development in Scott’s career. Last month, a grand jury decided not to press charges against the rapper regarding the tragic 2021 Astroworld Festival. The festival, which saw a surge in the crowd during Scott’s performance, resulted in the deaths of 10 people and left hundreds injured. As a response to the ongoing lawsuits filed against Live Nation, the concert’s producer, Scott himself, and other organizers, the artist remains firm in denying any allegations of negligence or wrongdoing.
The Giza Pyramids are among the world’s most iconic landmarks. Built as a tomb for the pharaohs, it stands as a testament to the ancient Egyptians’ architectural prowess and cultural significance. The pyramid’s precise construction and alignment with celestial bodies continue to intrigue researchers and visitors alike, making it a popular tourist destination.
According to the Ministry of Tourism and Antiquities, Egypt welcomed over seven million tourists in the first half of 2023, a record high for the country.
