For its tenth anniversary, the mixtape was released through Cactus Jack and Epic Records on streaming media on August 23, 2024. [3] A few digital vault editions of the mixtape were available exclusively on Scott's website for a short period of time and includes ten additional songs in total that did not end up appearing on its original version. With all the vault editions being combined, they feature additional guest appearances from Quavo as a solo artist and Playboi Carti. Upon the re-release of the mixtape, it debuted at number two on the US Billboard 200, moving 361,000 album-equivalent units, of which 331,000 were pure album sales. [4] In its fourth tracking week, it ascended to the top position on the chart, moving an additional 156,000 album-equivalent units, 149,000 of which were vinyl copies. [5]

Background and promotion

On July 11, 2014, Scott released the lead single of the mixtape, "Don't Play", which features English pop rock band the 1975 and fellow American rapper Big Sean. [6] [2] The following month, he took to social media to announce that he would be releasing 10 new songs within a month. On the same day, he also tweeted the title of the mixtape, before marketing the countdown every day until it stopped on August 10, 2014. Scott described it as a "free album" on social media although he made it clear that it is a mixtape. [7] On August 17, 2014, he revealed the cover art, release date, and track listing of the mixtape. [8] "Mamacita", which features fellow American rappers Rich Homie Quan and Young Thug, was released as the second and final single from the mixtape on December 2, 2014. [9] Both singles were also released to streaming media the day they were released, unlike the other songs on the mixtape until over ten years later.

On August 17, 2024, Scott announced that Days Before Rodeo would finally be released to streaming media soon at the Fanatics Fest in New York City. [10] The next day, which was the tenth anniversary of the mixtape, he took to social media to announce the re-release, where he also shared that the digital deluxe edition of the mixtape is exclusively on his website, which would include tracks that he recorded for it that did not end up appearing on it. [11] [12] On August 22, 2024, Scott performed a special sold-out concert for over one thousand people for the tenth anniversary of Days Before Rodeo at the Heaven stage at the Masquerade in Atlanta, Georgia, where he performed most of the songs from the mixtape along with some of his other songs. [13] Five days later, "Drugs You Should Try It" was released as the third and final single from the mixtape. [14]

Days Before Rodeo received highly positive reviews. Jacob Roy from The 405 wrote: "While some may feel he opts for style over substance, all the distorted baselines and 'straight up' ad-libs play a purpose and a role. Days Before Rodeo proves Travis does everything for a reason. When listening to the album each song plays a role and as a whole it makes for a incredibly engrossing experience. While his lyrical ability may be questioned, it doesn't really cross your mind when you are in awe of the piece that he has painted for you. He has a mission statement and he is going to stick by it. 'We will understand it if they don't, we don't want they bullshit no more.' It wouldn't be a stretch to say Travis Scott could be at the forefront for a new generation of hip-hop that have their eyes on the bigger picture". Eric Diep of XXL commented that the album "displays the Houston rapper's eclectic production style, as well as his boastful raps that are similar to his mentors Kanye West and T.I.", while calling it "some great new material that we've been missing from him since his excellent debut, Owl Pharaoh ." [21]

In a positive review of the album following its re-release, Clash 's Robin Murray wrote that "listening to [Days Before Rodeo] in 2024 is a kind of Möbius strip experience", stating that when listening, the "past and present are folded into one". Murray added that the album's bonus cuts were "preserved for posterity". [19] Similarly, Ritchie Matthew for Pitchfork wrote that the mixtape "is a time capsule of Scott’s chameleonic production prowess and his budding curatorial skill". He stated that "compared to later releases, Days Before Rodeo is an exercise in restraint, lacking an extensive list of lyrical features", while praising its production. [20]

Commercial performance

The 2024 re-release of Days Before Rodeo debuted at number two on the US Billboard 200 , earning 361,000 album-equivalent units, of which 331,000 were pure album sales. The album debuted at number one on the US Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart, marking Scott's fourth consecutive album to debut at the top of the chart. [4] These figures marked the fourth-highest debut of any album during the year and the highest for any rap album. [24]

In the album's fourth week, during the chart week ending September 19, 2024, the album ascended to number one on the US Billboard 200 chart, earning 156,000 album-equivalent units, of which 150,000 were pure album sales. [5] The album accumulated a total of 7,94 million on-demand official streams of the album's songs in the charting week. The album's vinyl sales comprised 149,000 units, the largest for any rap album, and the sixth largest week on vinyl across all genres, since Luminate began tracking sales in 1991. [5] Furthermore, the album saw a 1,295% increase in sales, jumping from #106 to #1 on the chart; an increase attributed to the fact that pre-ordered vinyl editions shipped that week. [25] Following this week at #1, it became the first album ever to drop entirely off the US Billboard 200 chart from the #1 position.

The term has significantly increased in popularity over the years due to high-profile artists marketing their projects as such. Mixtapes also have been inconsistently referred to as albums by reputable media outlets such as Pitchfork, Rolling Stone and Complex.
