Travi$ Scott, fresh from releasing his latest set Days Before Rodeo, from all accounts tore it down at this year's edition of Trillectro.

During in an interview with Complex, Scott talked about where his inspiration comes from his high energy performances. The 2013 XXL Freshman said it started when he was in the crowd as a fan.

"I'm a big fan of Kid Cudi. He was like the only concert I think I went to as a kid," Travis explained. "He was on tour with Asher Roth. It was the craziest shit I'd seen. I used to watch Michael Jackson DVDs like the 1985 shit when he was doing world tours. And mad kids used to pass out with ambulances and that shit. When I'm in the crowd I like to just lose my mind."

In Travi$' eyes, there's no reason to give less than one hundred percent on stage, especially if you have the catalog to back it up.

"I always hate when like my favorite performer has a boring moment. Especially when they got mad hits," he says. "I ain't got mad hits. But a performer that's got number ones, top 10's, there should be no dying time, people should be almost dead. People should be almost like dead."

Scott's life isn't all about the stage though. He's hard at work on his new album Rodeo. Yung Lean, T.I. and G.O.O.D. Music leader Kanye West are all slated to appear on the project.
