Travis Scott Hints At Re-Releasing 'Owl Pharaoh' Mixtape On Streaming Services
Travis Scott made chart history when he re-released his decade-old mixtape Days Before Rodeolast year – and he plans to one day do the same with his 2013 debut mixtape, Owl Pharaoh.
In his new cover story for Complex, La Flame was asked about putting the tape on streaming services as he was reflected on the aforementioned success of Days Before Rodeo‘s re-release.
“Yeah, definitely. For sure,” he said. “I’m just thinking about the right time for that.”
While Days Before Rodeo arrived on streamers for its 10th anniversary, that milestone has since passed for Owl Pharaoh – but there’s always the 15-year mark in 2028!

As for DBR‘s chart history – after initially debuting at number two with over 360,000 equivalent units before tumbling down the chart down to number 106, the project saw a historic surge to the top spot thanks almost entirely to vinyl sales.
According to Billboard, Days Before Rodeo earned 156,000 equivalent units in its fourth week, with 149,000 of that figure comprised of vinyl sales which were made exclusively through the rapper’s website.
It’s the biggest ever sales week for a rap album on vinyl, and the sixth largest across all genres since tracking began in 1991.
Scott previously held the record within Hip Hop with his 2023 album Utopia, which sold 93,000 viny copies in a single week.
Days Before Rodeo also marks La Flame’s fourth number one on the Billboard 200.
The Houston rapper previously objected to Days Before Rodeo‘s debut chart position, claiming that Billboard had used “unreliable and incomplete” data to place him second behind Sabrina Carpenter’s Short N’ Sweet by a narrow margin.
Scott’s Cactus Jack Records wrote a letter to the publication accusing it of over-weighting Carpenter’s sales through independent stores, but ultimately, Billboard remained firm in their listing, denying claims that their figures were not accurate.
