Travis Scott performs at the Coachella Stage 2025

Travis Scott debuted two unreleased songs during his set at Coachella 2025, and also broke out a Drake mash-up. Check out the footage below.

The moment came as the rapper took to the stage at the California festival on Saturday (April 12), performing as part of this year’s first weekend.

Backed by a 60-person strong marching band, Scott kicked off his huge set with a live rendition of ‘Crush’ – the song he released as part of the new Playboi Carti album ‘MUSIC’. The performance marked the first time the song has been played live.

From there, he went into other guest appearances, including another Playboi Carti song ‘Backr00ms’, Lil Uzi Vert’s ‘Aye’ and Future and Metro Boomin’s ‘Type Shit’.

As well as breaking out his own hits including ‘FE!N’, ‘Antidote’, ‘Goosebumps’ and ‘TELEKENISIS’, one of the most memorable parts of the set came as the rapper used the Coachella performance to share two new tracks.

These came in quick succession after the opening track. The first was called ‘Oh Jacques’ – which is a nod to the rapper’s real first name – while the second was called ‘She Going Dumb’.

As the songs were played, white writing flashed atop a back backdrop behind Scott, which read: “NEW SHITTTTT”. Check out footage above.

Another surprise during Travis Scott’s set came midway through the 29-song setlist, when the rapper caught fans off-guard by mashing up one of his songs with a Drake hit.

Playing the instrumental version of Drake’s recent hit ‘Nokia’, Scott began rapping his ‘Modern Jam’ track over the top, which was featured in his ‘Utopia’ album. It comes as a nod to the unique pairing of the two tracks, which has gone viral on social media in recent days.

The Houston rapper was the second headliner of the day, following on from Green Day. It marked his first appearance at the Californian festival since 2017, and Coachella posters previously promised the performance would see him “design the desert”.

The reception to the set was seemingly mixed, with some expressing frustration the rapper was late for his set, while others joked it was also impossible to see the grand visuals through the smoke. Find more responses here.

Elsewhere this weekend, Lady Gaga performed a theatrical five-act set, A. G. Cook brought out Danny Brown, performing a host of tracks before remixing Charli XCX’s ‘Party 4 U’.

Charli XCX brought out Lorde, Billie Eilish and Troye Sivan for her highly-awaited performance – although frustrated some Green Day fans at the afterparty – and there was controversy during Kneecap‘s set after they led an anti-Margaret Thatcher chant, with fans reporting the online stream had cut out shortly after.

Taking to social media, some fans who watched Green Day’s set shared footage after a rogue firework shot into the crowd and set a palm tree on fire.
