Travis Scott to Debut “4×4” at Halftime of College Football National Championship
Travis Scott is gearing up for a major moment on one of the biggest stages in sports: the College Football National Championship halftime show. On January 20, 2025, fans will get their first listen to his highly anticipated track, “4×4,” which will debut during the halftime break of the thrilling game between Notre Dame and Ohio State. The event will take place at Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta, Georgia, and will be aired live on ESPN at 7:30 PM ET.
A Highly Anticipated Debut
The performance marks the official debut of “4×4,” which has been generating buzz among Travis Scott’s loyal fanbase. This is a pivotal moment for Scott, as the halftime show provides a global platform for the rapper to showcase his latest work. Fans have been waiting for months since the song was teased, and the buzz has only increased since Scott shared a snippet of the track during Instagram Live on January 6, ahead of the new year. His halftime appearance at the College Football Playoff National Championship will be a must-watch, as it is the first time the world will hear the track in full.
Scott’s New Musical Project with WWE
Before the debut of “4×4,” Travis Scott had already been making waves in the entertainment world. In November 2024, it was announced that Scott would create a theme song for WWE’s Monday Night Raw. This collaboration marks an exciting venture for Scott into the world of professional wrestling. Right before the January 6, 2025, episode of the show, Scott shared an exclusive snippet of “4×4,” further teasing the track’s impact on his fans.
The College Football National Championship performance and the WWE partnership show just how versatile Travis Scott is in terms of cross-industry influence, whether it’s music, sports, or even entertainment.
Scott’s Recent Luxury Purchase
In addition to his musical pursuits, Travis Scott has reportedly added a new luxury vehicle to his collection. He recently purchased a limited edition $160K custom Hemi Hellcat V8 Horsepower Apocalypse Omega-Rex pickup truck. According to TMZ, this specific model was the last of its kind, marking a significant addition to Scott’s impressive collection of vehicles. The custom truck, purchased from SoFlo Customs, aligns perfectly with Scott’s larger-than-life persona and love for rare, high-performance cars.
Legal Drama Surrounding “Telekinesis”
While Scott’s career continues to soar, the artist is currently facing a lawsuit involving his song “Telekinesis” featuring Future and SZA. Victory Boyd, an artist signed to Roc Nation, filed a suit on January 8, 2025, accusing Scott, SZA, Future, and other credited songwriters of using elements from her 2019 song, “Like The Way It Sounds,” without permission. Boyd claims that she shared her track with Kanye West, who allegedly played it for Scott, leading to the creation of “Telekinesis.”
Boyd’s lawsuit alleges that the hook of “Telekinesis” contains lyrics that closely resemble those from her track. Adding to the drama, Audemars Piguet, the watchmaker, is named in the suit because they used Scott’s song in an advertisement despite Boyd’s refusal to grant permission.
Boyd claims that she was recently offered an eight percent stake in the song, and she is also listed as one of the composers on Spotify for “Telekinesis,” which adds an extra layer of complexity to the legal battle.
Conclusion
As Travis Scott continues to break barriers in both music and entertainment, his debut of “4×4” during the College Football Playoff National Championship will undoubtedly be a highlight of 2025. From his involvement with WWE to his latest purchase and ongoing legal battles, Scott’s presence in the cultural zeitgeist shows no signs of slowing down. Fans will surely be glued to their screens to see how he delivers his latest hit on such a grand stage. Will “4×4” live up to the hype? Only time will tell.
