'Days Before Rodeo' was a semi-spontaneous compilation of songs that Travis made during early 'Rodeo' sessions, released on August 18, 2014. Considered by Travis to be a 'free album' rather than a mixtape. Almost released as a Gangsta Grillz tape.
OG Filename: Travis Scott.Burroughs-10s and Up Throwaway of unknown origin. Burroughs T is a small ATL artist who used to work with DJ Spinz a lot; Spinz is shouted out, so it's likely that he produced it. File was dated 2014. Leaked May 20, 2020.
Released on August 18, 2014. Track 1 from 'Days Before Rodeo'. Samples Philip Glass's "Music Box (Opening Theme)".
OG Filename: Travis Scott-Mamacita [tv] MSTR1 TV track with open verses; has the hooks and all background vocals. Leaked December 19, 2022.
OG Filename: Metro x A TRAK Likely made during the 2014 Atlanta 'Rodeo' sessions, possibly recorded in the producer house studio; Travis can be seen working on his album at the house in a Vice Noisey documentary. Uses the same instrumental as Fredo Santana's 'Bad Habits'. Leaked July 2, 2025.
During an interview on HOT97 on July 16, 2013, Travis officially announced that he was working on an album, set to be released in 2014. At the time of the announcement, Travis said that he had recently been working with Crada, so any songs made with him are likely in contention; "Naked" and "Can't Look In My Eyes" may have still been in consideration (assuming Cudi hadn't taken the latter back yet) but "Armageddon" likely wasn't. Pharaohxx also said that the Rick Rubin rework of "Naked" would make the album. An October 31, 2013, Rolling Stone article said that Travis was considering 'Fuego' as a title, but 'Rodeo' was eventually settled on (in March 2014 at the latest). The project continued to evolve until eventually all songs from this time had been cut.
OG Filename: Black Skinhead Remix 10.13.13 Scrapped remix with a new instrumental, and vocals from Miley Cyrus and Travis; according to Page Six, Miley skipped her own VMAs afterparty to record for it. This version has a better mix than 'V1'. It leaked with tags in early 2016; higher quality untagged leaked May 27, 2021.
OG Filename: 1 THING ABOUT ME (RUFF BOUNCE) Fully finished collaboration from September 2013. Tweeted about on September 9, 2013, before being previewed by Meek on October 12. Leaked May 10, 2023.
Previewed by Kyor Gyoti on Tumblr on February 7, 2014, though it may have been posted by Travis first. An early version of the beat, missing the screams, leaked January 9, 2024. [NOTE: The linked file is a bounce of the beat's multitracks; it's probably not mixed correctly.]
OG Filename: 01 Change Ruff V1 FKi 1st's original demo, which Travis sang over. Travis didn't have the stems, so he had to EQ the track to turn 1st's vocals down - he's technically still present on the final version. Previously available on LEAKED.CX from Logan, though it sounded like an edit. 1st played the full thing for a fan on Instagram Live in 2020; he later played a CDQ snippet and revealed the original filename during a beat breakdown, released on November 1, 2024.
Released on August 18, 2014. Track 2 from 'Days Before Rodeo'. Dropped as a streamable single on December 2, 2014. Samples Bobby "Blue" Bland's "(If Loving You Is Wrong) I Don't Want to Be Right".
Multitracks for an early version of the beat that's missing the screams. Seems to have been titled "BLUNTED". Leaked January 9, 2024.
OG Filename: I BEEN TRILL TREATED CREW Version with Travis vocals that was given to Kanye, before he took it back and turned it into "3500" (see 'V3'); first heard about after being tweeted about by Kanye's ex-DJ, Mano. Travis mentioned in an interview that his hook from "3500" originated from Kanye playing around with his verse from this song. Possibly set for release in early 2014, though all links to the information are dead. Leaked December 19, 2022.
Open-verse throwaway from 2014; could be post-'DBR'. Sold by Music Mafia and leaked August 22, 2019. Probably untitled; it sounds like Travis is actually saying "aw yeah", so "All Year" likely isn't the real title. While it's not the most developed song, it's arguably one of the more interesting songs from 2014 to have leaked.

Earliest version with rough reference vocals and Thug singing in the intro. The recording process can be seen in a mini-documentary on YouTube; Thug wasn't there for the video, but he arrived at the studio straight after. Played briefly at a show later in the month, before Travis realised it was the demo and quickly turned it off. Travis called it "Skyfall Interlude" in the caption of an Instagram video posted during the recording session.
Early version with extra vocals from Matty Healy (taken from The 1975's "M.O.N.E.Y.") and no Big Sean; Matty mentioned in an interview that the track started as a "M.O.N.E.Y." remix. Reuses A$AP Bari's bridge from "Quintana" as an outro. Leaked October 8, 2019.
Released on August 18, 2014. Track 3 from 'Days Before Rodeo'. Features uncredited vocals from T.I.
