“2000 EXCURSION“: JACKBOYS and Travis Scott Unleash a High-Octane Cinematic Trap Experience
“2000 EXCURSION,” the high-energy lead single from the forthcoming JACKBOYS 2 project, forcefully marks Travis Scott’s return alongside his formidable Cactus Jack collective.
Released on July 8, 2025, the track prominently features Don Toliver and Sheck Wes, serving as the initial full-length auditory preview of this highly anticipated album, which is currently slated for release on July 11, 2025.
This auditory journey, produced by Cardo Got Wings and Johnny Juliano, and distributed through Cactus Jack Records and Epic Records, initially surfaced on platforms like YouTube and Instagram.
Sonically, “2000 EXCURSION” conjures a dark, upbeat, and distinctly cinematic atmosphere, skillfully merging Travis Scott’s signature auto-tuned psychedelia with dynamic shifts in beat patterns and synths.
A notable element within the production is the discerning sample of drums from Kanye West’s seminal track, “POWER,” which injects a familiar yet invigorating energy.
Vocally, Don Toliver delivers a compelling melodic hook, while Sheck Wes and Travis Scott exchange spirited, confident verses.
The lyrical content is replete with references to the hustle, vibrant nightlife, and the iconic Ford Excursion SUV, which here symbolizes mobility, unbridled freedom, and the capacity to bring the entire entourage along for the ride.
The accompanying music video is a truly surreal, high-speed visual odyssey, featuring cars drifting, strobe-lit gatherings, and enigmatic, dreamlike imagery.
It includes deliberate callbacks to Travis Scott’s ASTROWORLD era, prompting fans to describe the visuals as “peak stuff.”
The titular 2000 Ford Excursion takes center stage as a recurring motif, with some keen observers noting the vehicle may actually be a custom F-250 chassis fitted with an Excursion body, highlighting the meticulous attention to authenticity and aesthetic flair.
The video rapidly amassed over 1.3 million YouTube views within its first 12 hours, igniting fervent discussion across social media platforms.
JACKBOYS 2 is expected to feature a star-studded roster of collaborators, including SoFaygo, Wallie the Sensei, 21 Savage, Vybz Kartel, SahBabii, Waka Flocka Flame, GloRilla, Kodak Black, and Tyla, among others.
Pre-orders for the album opened concurrently with the single’s release, with Travis Scott teasing various distinct cover art options.
Quotable Lyrics:
Ayy, ayy, what?
2000 Excursion (Whip it), forty for a bird (Bird, yeah)
Tryna hit the Booby, b*tch, just say the word (Don’t say it)
Peeped it for my brother first, it’s the early bird, ayy (Brr, yeah, woo)
Ayy (Woo), ayy (Woo, brr), ayy (What’s up? Yeah)
I don’t get the bag (Woo), get the duff’ (Woo)
My baby can’t do me enough (B*tch)
The best, they pourin’ me up
No plastic (Uh), Styrofoam cup
I’m on the Southside whippin’ the truck (Skrrt)
On tracks, not givin’ a f**k (Skrrt)
On wax, not givin’ a f**k (Woo, f**k)
Like Jalil, not givin’ a f**k, yeah (Woo)
Hе sleep with a Spanish b*tch in the club
Bro knowin’ Spanglish, that’s good enough (Ah)
We took an hour out of thе after-hours just to f**k up all the ones
I got a bunch, you ain’t doin’ brunch
I got a front that ain’t gotta front
I put a blunt in a blunt
