ATB - Mini Music Documentaries: How Three 2018 Albums by Playboi Carti, Juice WRLD, & Travis Scott..



In this episode Dante Pellegrino discusses the monumental year that hip hop had in 2018, and how three major albums changed the face of the genre. We take a deep dive into the world of three of music's most important modern rappers. If you spend time on YouTube it is impossible to not come across hundreds of videos of Juice WRLD freestyle reactions, Juice WRLD trap type beats, and Juice WRLD unreleased songs. It is safe to say that before he passed the Chicago rapper took the world of hip hop by storm. However, Playboi Carti is arguably just as important of a modern artist. Known for his insane performances of unreleased tracks like "Kid Cudi", psychedelic unreleased instrumentals, and an overall cult following; Carti's 2018 "Die Lit" changed hip hop. Lastly we look at the way in which Travis Scott's 2018 contribution, ASTROWORLD, changed Hip Hop. We explore his ASTROWORLD tour, and the crazy shows he put on in places like Houston Texas, his lyrics on songs like "Butterfly Effect" and "Goosebumps", and his outlandish marketing tactics!
