American rapper Travis Scott took center stage in Barcelona, delivering a surprise concert and unveiling a unique collaboration with FC Barcelona before the highly anticipated El Clásico.
On May 10, 2025, Scott performed an exclusive, invitation-only concert at the historic Las Tres Chimeneas in Sant Adrià del Besòs. The event, curated by Spotify, was attended by select fans and featured appearances by football legends such as Ronaldinho, Gerard Piqué, and Thierry Henry.
The concert not only showcased Scott’s dynamic performance but also served as the launchpad for the limited-edition FC Barcelona jersey emblazoned with his Cactus Jack logo .
The following day, FC Barcelona donned the special Cactus Jack jerseys during their thrilling 4-3 victory over Real Madrid at the Estadi Olímpic Lluís Companys.
The match was a rollercoaster, with Real Madrid’s Kylian Mbappé scoring a hat-trick, only for Barcelona to clinch the win with goals from Raphinha, Lamine Yamal, and Eric García .
Scott was spotted in the VIP section, passionately celebrating each Barcelona goal, endearing himself to fans who now consider him “one of us” .
Travis Scott x FC Barcelona Collaboration
The collaboration extended beyond the pitch, with a lifestyle collection featuring T-shirts, hoodies, caps, and more, blending Scott’s streetwear aesthetic with Barcelona’s iconic colors.
The merchandise, available through Travis Scott’s website and the Barça Store at Spotify Camp Nou, sold out rapidly, with some items fetching premium prices on resale markets .
This partnership between Travis Scott, FC Barcelona, and Spotify exemplifies the evolving intersection of music and sports, creating immersive experiences that resonate with fans worldwide.
As Barcelona edges closer to securing the La Liga title, this collaboration marks a memorable chapter in the club’s storied history.
Meanwhile, FC Barcelona also hosted Nigerian singer, Skales a while ago as they won the Copa Del Rey trophy. Skales has been raking in numbers on Spotify after Lamine Yamal has danced frequently to his old jam, “Oya Shake Body”.
