Travis Scott revealed that he actually brought the $5 million Bugatti Chiron that appears in the 2019 “GATTI” video.
On the latest episode of our series On Display, the rapper explained how he came into possession of the car for the video he shot with Pop Smoke.
“I remember I was doing the song, and Pop’s like, ‘You know, we gotta bring Bugattis out (for the video) man,’” recalled Travis. “I forgot who was helping us with the video. The guy was like, ‘Yeah man, I know somebody that can bring some Bugattis out for us.’”
Scott continued on, suggesting that someone giving them the car just for the video felt inauthentic. “So I’m like naw, I’m just gonna go and get this,” explained Travis. “We was at the shoot, me and Pop. He was like, ‘Man, damn bro. This shit smells brand new.’ I was like ‘Yeah bro, I just got it like a week ago.’”
In our recent cover story with him, Scott revealed how he got the shock of a lifetime when he found out that actor Adrien Brody makes beats.
"I ran into him at a fashion show recently, and I’ve always been a fan of his,” said Scott. “He’s been in Wes Anderson movies and shit, and worked with a lot of directors I fuck with. I sat next to him and I’m like, ‘Fuck, I don’t even know if this dude knows who I am.’ And the first thing he tells me is, ‘Yo, bro, I fuck with your shit.’ And I’m like, ‘What the fuck?’"
"He makes music, too. He’s like, "You know, I make beats and shit," Scott recalled. "I’m like, "You got to send me some beats!" So we chopped it up. Man, that fucked me up. That’s crazy. I get shit like that all the time."
