Travis Scott took to his Instagram Stories to call Tame Impala's newly released album, Deadbeat, "the best album to come out in the last two years." He tagged Tame Impala's Kevin Parker and wrote:

Fans reacted, saying:

"Cowboy Carter was released in 2024 he just got amnesia"

Travis Scott and Tame Impala have collaborated before, including on "Skeletons" from Travis's Astroworld. In 2018, Kevin Parker described his experience working with Travis Scott. In an interview with Billboard, he recalled sessions that took place with "10 to 20 people in the room," and sound systems so loud that "your eardrums rattle."


Fans' reactions to Travis Scott hailing Tame Impala's Deadbeat as the best album in the last "two years"

Pop Crave took to its official X (formerly Twitter) page to share that,

"Travis Scott calls Tame Impala's new album, ‘Deadbeat’ the "best album of the last two years.""

Fans did not wait long before jumping into the comment section of the X post. Below are some of their reactions:

"If Travis Scott is calling your album the best of the last two years, that’s not praise, that’s a cultural knighthood. Tame Impala just got crowned by the trap pope himself 😤", declared a netizen.
"When Travis Scott gives props, you know it’s real 🔥🎶. Deadbeat’s rise isn’t hype, it’s evolution in motion. Tame Impala keeps redefining sound and vibes for a new era 🌌🎧✨.", hyped another.
"not when eternal sunshine exists", opined a third.

Others also chimed in:

"He is not wrong, Deadbeat is crazy!", praised a fan.
"This is a beautiful, full-circle moment. Kevin Parker gave Travis Scott the psychedelic, ethereal soundscape that helped define his masterpiece. Now, Travis is returning the favor, using his massive cultural gravity to shine a spotlight on his collaborator's own magnum opus. It's the perfect, symbiotic relationship between a producer's sound and an artist's vision, each making the other better.", penned another.
"Travis Scott does not throw praise lightly and calling Tame Impala's album ‘Deadbeat’ sets the bar sky-high.", commented a third.

Deadbeat was released on Friday, October 17, 2025, via Columbia Records. It is Tame Impala's fifth studio album, and his first since 2020's The Slow Rush. The record was developed between his Fremantle home base and his Injidup studio in Western Australia. One of the album's notable tracks, "My Old Ways," racked up over 2.5 million Spotify streams within 24 hours. It is his biggest streaming debut yet.
