Travis Scott's Cactus Jack Is Back & Bolder in 'JACKBOYS 2'

Summary

• Travis Scott officially released “JACKBOYS 2” , a 17-track sequel to his 2019 “JACKBOYS” compilation, which was announced on Instagram on Thursday.
• Narrated by Houston rapper Bun B , the album features familiar tracks like “2000 Excursion” and “ILMB” with Sheck Wes, and includes collaborations with artists such as NBA YoungBoy, Future, and Playboi Carti. The album also appears to contain a response to Pusha T’s recent diss on the track “CHAMPAIN & VACAY”.

The long-awaited sequel to Travis Scott’s 2019 Cactus Jack compilation, JACKBOYS 2 has arrived. Announced on Instagram on Thursday, Scott posted the album artwork and loudly shared, “JB2 OUT EVERYWHERE 7/13 SPEAKERS AND SCREAMS AT MAX VOLUME.”

Narrated by Houston rapper Bun B throughout, the tracklist is sprinkled with familiar releases like “2000 Excursion,” released last week, and “ILMB” with Sheck Wes. Along with tying in the usual crew members like Don Toliver and Sheck, Travis enlisted features and adlibs by NBA YoungBoy, Future, Playboi Carti, GloRilla, Tyla, Vybz Kartel, 21 Savage, Kodak Black, SahBabii and Waka Flocka Flame.

The 17-track project packs a bigger punch than its 7-track predecessor from 2019, which included “GATTI,” “HIGHEST IN THE ROOM,” and “OUT WEST.” And Travis wastes no time hitting back at Pusha T‘s recent diss on CLIPSE track “So Be It,” seemingly offering a response on the second track, cheekily named “CHAMPAIN & VACAY.” “Made a 100 off pushin’ T, mow my phone on DND,” Travis boasts on the track with Don Toliver.

Along with the album release, Travis has also unveiled new JACKBOYS 2 merch, including co-branded short and long-sleeved tees with artist lists and ski mask graphics. Released ahead of the compilation, the JACKBOYS 2 merch capsule is available on the JACKBOYS webstore now.
