Scott: "I'm just here for good times, man. I want people to have the best time ever. Especially if they're around me."

Scott: "Raging and having good feelings and having fun is something I plan on doing and spreading across the world. I just need air and a mic."

Scott: “My whole story is straight mythical. It’s tangible, but it’s also what life could be.”

Scott: "I don't get why radio shows allow artists to do shows without creative control, without any art direction at all. Instead of that, I get their press guys, their camera guys to be my backdrop of my show."

Scott: "My work ethic is crazy. I'm a producer, an artist, and a video director."

Scott: "I'm not into just one thing; I always felt like I had to have my hand in everything revolving around what I do, whether it's directing videos, making beats, making music, performing."

Scott: "I'm an artist. I produce, I direct, and all of that goes into the music."

Scott: "I don't really write. I'm an on-the-spot type of person. This beat, let's listen to it; let's vibe. And then I'll do a melody, and then we'll go back and do it."

Scott: "You can't buy vision, and you can't buy aesthetic."

Scott: "I'm big on diversity. My music is very diverse; I don't want it to ever be typecasted."

Scott: "I want first and foremost to help other artists, launch new names, to provide opportunities. I want to do for them what happened to me, but better."

Scott: “There’s a lot of us out here that are birds, man. We all need to just fly.”

Scott: “You’ve gotta motivate kids. They wanna grow up. They got problems. You’ve gotta give ’em that music to make ’em feel like they’re OK, and it’s only a couple of artists that do that.”

Scott: "It’s never about repeating myself, I’m just trying to make the next saga… each album is like a saga."

Scott: "I think, with production, I pay very close attention. 'Cause that's my favorite thing in music. That's the whole drive. That's the reason."

Scott: "I'm attached to the beat. The beat speaks words."

Scott: "I never produce a song, whether writing it or making a beat, and give it a wack visual or wack performance. I'm like a trifecta."

Scott: "I'm La Flame at all times. That, at times, can be bad, at times can be good."

Scott: "I see hip-hop as going in a self-managing place. It's very culturally controlled and artist-controlled. It's not really based on a label anymore. Everything is pretty much in the control of the artist. Which is amazing."

Scott: “I feel like God put me here to help out with people’s soul, man.”

Scott: "I feel like everything needs to be stylized; that's always been my mindset."

Scott: "Sometimes I might be sleepy, and sometimes I've literally been sleeping backstage, woken up, gone straight on stage or gone crazy. It's not like I psyche myself; I don't do any of that."

Scott: "I was working with Jay Z while I was still learning how to be who I was about to become."

Scott: "With albums like 'Rodeo,' 'Days Before Rodeo' and 'Owl Pharaoh,' I was really tuned into wanting to get people to understand my conscious and who I was mentally and who I am mentally."

Scott: "Honestly, I really can't speak on others, but in a sense, I feel like every artist always has their problems with the industry because we all want to have our creative way."

Scott: "You've gotta really touch people to move them to buy your records."

Scott: "Sometimes I might be sleepy, and sometimes I've literally been sleeping backstage, woken up, gone straight on stage or gone crazy. It's not like I psyche myself; I don't do any of that."

Scott: "I feel like everyone just gets constricted by their parents or, just, life."

Scott: "I don't get why radio shows allow artists to do shows without creative control, without any art direction at all. Instead of that, I get their press guys, their camera guys to be my backdrop of my show."

Scott: "Everybody just has different steps in their life that they take to do what they should."

Scott: "I like how fashion is becoming more like music. It's more adaptive to young kids. It's more adaptive to a more on-the-go lifestyle. More street vibe. But I've always been into it."

Scott: "I'm super nice - I just get excited!"

Scott: "I'm always up for collaborating with brands and people who actually design, but doing your own line is a whole other beast. I don't think I could deal with the criticism."

Scott: "I consider myself an artist, which is, like, the most played term, but I believe it."

Scott: "I have this old Polo jacket. I've got to bring it wherever I go. And I have this one cape that somebody gave to me. It's this jumpsuit with this cape on the back that this one person gave to me. It's clutch."

Scott: "I don't write; I just go in the booth."

Scott: "Yes, money is important. But it's all about the creative process."

Scott: "I feel like Houston is one of the leading things in music culture. Everyone loves the Houston culture. It needs to have its own monument, its own moment for artists like me, artists like Beyoncé who set it off."

Scott: "There are people who take fashion at different levels, but personally, I'm just a kid with it."

Scott: "I don't need a stage to perform. We just need something to stand on."

i-D: It seems strange somehow that Travis is still so enigmatic — media-shy in his own way, secretive in interviews and often guarded, despite mastering the art of self-promotion on his path to astronomical success.
