Travis Scott and Tom Brady have a close bond.

The Astroworld rapper sat down with Billboard, sharing that he often seeks Brady’s counsel.

“12 is one of my favorites,” Scott told the publication, referencing Brady’s former jersey number. “I go to him when it comes to achieving the highest level of greatness. I have a couple of people I can name [when I need advice], but 12 is somebody I can turn to when it comes to that because time and time again, when it comes to having to go and get it, I’ve seen him do it.”

Scott has name-dropped Brady in at least five songs, with the latest being 21 Savage’s 2024 song “Née-Nah.” Travis celebrated Brady’s seven Super Bowl wins, rapping, "Ayy, Brady seven pack, they come in bunch."

Last year, the Houston native also hopped on Playboi Carti’s single “Backr00ms,” rapping, “Throw it like 12.” Scott mentions the former quarterback on 2023 Utopia album tracks “Meltdown,” featuring Drake, and “Thank God,” as well as Nav’s 2018 song “Champion.”
