Jacques Berman Webster, most commonly known as Travis Scott was born on April 30, 1992. He grew up in South Park, Houston which was notorisoulsy known for its crime which had and impact on Webster. Seeing all the crazy people he was living by was what gave Webster the edge and drive to get out of there. Webster graduated high school at seventeen and then he was enrolled at the University of Texas San Antonio, but dropped out his sophomore year to pursue his music career.

As we know, the will to get out of his crime filled neighborhood was what drove Webster. Something unique that Webster had to go through was no financial stability. After he dropped out of college to pursue music, his parents cut him off financially because they did not support his decision. Therefore, he moved in with his friend, but his friend eventually abandoned him leaving him with no choice but to go back to Houston and live with his family. His parents eventually kicked him out, therefore he moved to L.A. where he lived with a friend and slept on his couch.

Webster started from nothing, but is now one of the most successful rappers in the game. His albums “Rodeo”, “Birds in The Trap Sing Mcknight”, and most recently released “Astroworld” have all been top hits and broke records for streaming within the current decade. Webster continues to innovate every year by making us fans new music to listen to.

What inspired me about Webster was his drive to succeed. From the early stages of his life, Webster’s goal was to make it in life and not have himself in a situation filled with crime. As we now can tell, he can provide everything for his parents who raised him. Webster’s hardships of moving around from city to city with everyone in his family doubting him inspires me. Webster had nothing. He had no money, no family support, and at some points nowhere to even live, but he never let his mind get off that vision. I believe that if every entrepreneur had as much drive as Webster did, they could succeed just like him.
