Travis Scott Plans To Study Architecture, His ‘True Passion,’ At Harvard After He Retires From Music
While he’s been relatively quiet on the main music scene, as he remains locked in the studio working on his fourth studio album, Travis Scott is opening up about what he plans to do when things are all said and done for his music career.
As mentioned, Scott has been teasing his forthcoming album ‘Utopia,’ which has been in the works since early 2022. Earlier this month, he even gave some baseball players from the Houston Astros an early listen. Well, as the rest of the world waits for his new project, he spoke with ‘Pin-Up Magazine‘ about his career and more, as he covered the latest “Body Issue” on Wednesday (May 24).

Speaking with the publication, Scott was asked to share some things about himself using the letters of the alphabet. For the first letter “A,” Scott revealed, “Architecture is my true passion. I plan to apply to the architecture program at Harvard GSD [Graduate School Of Design] when I’m done with music, which won’t be for a while. It would be dope to do both at the same time.”
While explaining how his true passion with architecture merges with his love for music, Scott said that when he writes music, his “main inspirations” are “drawing, and visual art in general.” The rapper further explained that when it comes to architecture, it shares a special place in his heart with graphic design. He also noted that he has a huge interest in cars, and has “a very rare collection.”
Also, when speaking on who has artistically influenced him the most, Scott revealed that he looks up the late and great designer Virgil Abloh.
He explained, “Making an impact is fun. But sometimes people also flip the question on you in weird ways. There are people who don’t understand why you’re influential, and it can become an issue. The person who had the greatest impact on me and my taste level was Virgil [Abloh]. He was a true inspiration.”
