Travis Scott has returned with Jackboys 2, the long-awaited sequel to his 2019 Cactus Jack compilation. The new album features 17 songs and includes appearances from top artists like Future, Playboi Carti, Don Toliver, Sheck Wes, YoungBoy Never Broke Again, Kodak Black, GloRilla, Vybz Kartel, and more.
Here is a ranking of every track from Jackboys 2, from the least impressive to the absolute best, based on fan reactions, performances, and standout moments.
17. “JB 2 Radio”
The album opens with a radio-style intro. Bun B sets the tone with a conversation about Houston’s influence on hip-hop. While it’s atmospheric, it’s not really a song—more of a warm-up.
16. “Shyne”
This track highlights Memphis and features GloRilla, but her shocking line about Matthew McConaughey overshadowed the music. It’s one of the album’s weaker spots.
15. “No Comments”
Don Toliver takes center stage with smooth Auto-Tuned vocals. The lyrics tell listeners to “turn off your comments,” offering advice on ignoring negativity. The disco-influenced beat is catchy but feels like filler.
14. “Velour”
Sheck Wes and Don Toliver team up again, singing about spoiling their partners with expensive gifts. While it has energy, the song feels repetitive compared to stronger tracks on the album.
13. “ILMB”
“I Love My B—h” is a love song from Sheck Wes, who details his girlfriend rolling his blunts and heating his meals. Travis Scott jumps in later, but the track remains simple and personal.
12. “Can’t Stop”
This song features Don Toliver, Future, and newcomer Wallie the Sensei, who first gained attention on Kendrick Lamar’s 2024 album. The lyrics are playful but might not stand out long-term.
11. “Beep Beep”
SahBabii joins Scott on this fun, underwater-themed track. The beat is playful, and the lyrics are outrageous at times, making for a quirky dance track.
10. “2000 Excursion”
This was the lead single and features Sheck Wes and Don Toliver. It has a heavy, woozy vibe and samples Kanye West’s “Power”, making it a nostalgic yet fresh moment.
9. “MM3”
SoFaygo finally gets his spotlight with this fast-paced song about designer fashion. It’s a pure “rage rap” track that should excite his fans.
8. “PBT”
Travis Scott, Vybz Kartel, and Tyla deliver a smooth dancehall track. Tyla’s clever line about the Yellow Pages adds humor to this groovy record.
7. “Kick Out”
This track debuted at Coachella earlier this year. 21 Savage joins in with his signature dark ad-libs, but overall, the song sits in the middle of the album’s highlights.
6. “Outside”
A follow-up to the fan-favorite 2016 track of the same name, “Outside” features YoungBoy Never Broke Again in a surprise collaboration. The chemistry between the two artists makes this song stand out.
5. “Dumbo”
Another Coachella preview, “Dumbo” has a catchy chorus, though some fans feel the verses could have been stronger. Still, it has plenty of replay value.
4. “Florida Flow”
Kodak Black and Travis Scott link up for this Miami-inspired track. Scott’s raspy flow and Kodak’s sharp verse—including a mention of Kylie Jenner—make it one of the most talked-about songs.
3. “Champain & Vacay”
This is the real album intro. It starts softly but explodes with Waka Flocka Flame’s ad-libs. The song includes what many believe is a subtle response to Pusha T’s diss, with Scott rapping:
“Man I swear these old n—s kill me / Made a hundred off pushin tees / Now my phone on DND.”
2. “Contest”
SoFaygo and Scott bring intense energy on this rage-inspired anthem. With lyrics about constant success, some fans think it’s another swipe at Pusha T. The song is chaotic but exciting.
1. “Where Was You”
Topping the list is “Where Was You”, featuring Playboi Carti and Future. The song has everything: flexing lyrics, rich production by F1LTHY, and Scott borrowing flows from Future’s “Where Ya At?” It’s the most complete and engaging track on the album.
Jackboys 2 blends trap, rage rap, dancehall, and personal reflections. It highlights Travis Scott’s role as a curator and collaborator while giving fans high-energy moments and plenty of star power.
