Kacy Hill doesn’t connect with her Travis Scott collab “90210” anymore.
As Scott’s first album, Rodeo, approaches its tenth anniversary this September, the former G.O.O.D. Music singer responded to a fan on TikTok Friday (April 4) who asked for a “90210” sequel. But Hill, who parted ways with Ye’s label in 2019 and now tends to her garden, has put that song behind her.
“It has been ten years since that song,” she explained in the first TikTok below. “And I, quite literally, wake up every day and look outside to see how my sprouts have grown and bake scones and write guitar songs. So I think I’m pretty far away from that at this point.”
“Does he owe me a vocal swap? Sure. That will never happen, and I don’t really want it to at this point, at this juncture,” she went on, referring to Scott.
“That ship has sailed and I think we can let it go. It’s safe to let it go now,” she told Travis’s fans, asking them to take their comments “elsewhere.” But the comments were nasty, with people writing stuff like “trav made you lil bro” and “Humble yourself.”
Hill came back with another TikTok after someone commented, “he literally made you,” saying these kinds of remarks have followed her for years. “I’ve always been grateful to be a part of that song. I think it’s an awesome song,” she explained. “It was just a really kooky, like, crazy time in my life. I was really young and thrown into the deep end of the music industry and, I think, didn’t really know who I was as an artist yet and therefore couldn’t convey that to a label or anything else.”
Hill described it as a “tough time” and “hard,” saying, “I just don’t really relate much to that time in my life anymore.” But while she’s been discovering her musical identity over the past eight years, Hill claims Scott’s fans have constantly harassed her online.
“I just think it’s really wild, and I’ve sort of tried every tactic to get rid of the comments. I’ve muted so many words and I’ve tried to address things like this in really neutral, hopefully simple ideas, but I think we’re in a time in the world where trolling is such a thing.”
Hill pointed out that the trolling is her “only resentment” regarding “90210,” not directed at Scott or the track itself. “The shit that comes with being an artist in the internet age, I think fans and everyone else feel they have unlimited access to say whatever they want to you.”
“I have no bad blood for anyone, but I do have bad blood for this stuff,” she added while pointing at a comment bubble.
Besides her recent TikToks, Hill had previously mentioned that she owns a “small portion of publishing” for “90210” and has managed to support herself without commercial hits in the years since. The singer has occasionally flipped the script on Scott’s Ragers by trolling them right back.
