Pick up the phone by Travis Scott & Young Thug Song Info
“Pick Up the Phone” details Travis, Thug, and Quavo’s unfortunate situation. While they all want to be faithful and stay committed to this girl, she won’t show her love in return, refusing to pick up the phone—even while she’s not busy. This song was originally played on April 7, 2016, stop during Rihanna’s Anti Tour, and then played again at a club a couple of days after the ANTi Tour. In the weeks leading up to the release of “Pick Up the Phone,” Mike Dean previewed the song on his Periscope, where he showed himself mixing and mastering the song. The song was released on June 3rd on Travis Scott’s Soundcloud but was taken down 6 hours later. In the caption on his Soundcloud (before it was taken down), Travis stated: This song was supposed to go to iTunes but labels are making this more complicated than it needs to be this was gonna be my single but now I’m giving a way for the kids. P.S. They might take this down cause they don’t want kids to eat. Travis expressed his love for Young Thug and Quavo on Twitter while showing his frustration about the release of “Pick Up the Phone.” This is the fifth collaboration between Travis Scott and Young Thug, following Rodeo standout “Maria I’m Drunk,” the Soundcloud single “Nothing But Net,” and Days Before Rodeo’s “Skyfall” and “Mamacita”. Young Thug and Travis Scott later on collaborated on Thug's debut album So Much Fun on "The London" and its deluxe with the "Hot (Remix)". Scott previously collaborated with Quavo on “Oh My Dis Side” and “Sloppy Toppy,” the latter of which featured all three of the Migos.
