Utopia, the latest album from Travis Scott, has just been released. The album features guest collaborations from Beyoncé on Delresto, Drake on Meltdown, Justin Vernon and Sampha from Bon Iver on My Eyes, SZA and Future on Telekinesis, and Kid Cudi on Looove.
Fans believe that Travis Scott may have taken a dig at Timothée Chalamet, who is rumored to be Kylie Jenner’s current boyfriend, in one of his songs. The rapper’s latest song, Meltdown, contains more than just a passing allusion to the next Willy Wonka movie star.

‘Chocolate AP and chocolate the Vs got the/ Willy Wonka factory (Vs)/ Burn an athlete like it’s calories / find another flame, hot as me, b****,’ Scott raps. According to rumors, Willy Wonka is apparently being mentioned in connection to Chalamet’s major role as Roald Dahl’s well-known fictional chocolatier in the upcoming musical movie, Wonka.
Several Twitter users reacted to Scott’s lyrics supporting Chalamet, with one saying Jenner had “upgraded” in response. One Twitter user wrote, “Timothee is a class act. A humble yet talented actor, a true gentleman,” while another commented, “That is so cringe. How was he not embarrassed to even think about writing that?”
“Nah,” a third added, “We like Timmy Timmy,” while another Twitterati posted, “The misplaced confidence.”

While some listeners are convinced that Travis is making fun of Timothée, many others have claimed that lyrics in songs also entail artistic expression and can be read in a variety of ways. Thus, it’s certainly possible that the lines are just clever wordplay and aren’t actually directed at anyone in particular.
After spending the holidays apart, Kylie, 25, and Travis, the Billboard Music Award winner, called it quits on their on-again, off-again romance in January. Together, they have two kids: Stormi, five, and Aire, 17 months.
Although neither has made any public statements, a source informed Entertainment Tonight in April that Timothee, the star of the movie Dune, and Kylie were dating, but it wasn’t anything serious. In addition, neither of them has appeared with the other in public.
The representatives of Travis, Kylie, and Timothée have not yet responded to the rumors surrounding Meltdown.
