Fashion-forward artist Travi$ Scott chopped it up with MR.PORTER and was very reminiscent of his mentor Kanye West. In addition to often speaking in the third person similar to his idol, the artist consistently preached creative ethos that would make Yeezus proud. The Grand Hustle signee even went as far as to credit 'Ye as being the spark plug towards his music career.

"I saw this video of 'Ye on YouTube, making a beat in this yellow polo shirt, and thought: 'I need to do that'," he explained. The former XXL Freshman concluded the interview with a statement that West would definitely agree with. "Musically, I just want to inspire so many people. One day Travi$ is going to be moving like The Beatles." Read the full piece here.
