The song debuted atop the Billboard Hot 100, for the chart dated May 9, 2020, becoming Scott's third US number-one single, following "Sicko Mode" and "Highest in the Room", as well as Cudi's first US number-one single.[6]

Both artists had previously collaborated on Scott's "Through the Late Night" and "Way Back" on Birds in the Trap Sing McKnight (2016), Cudi's "Baptized in Fire" on Passion, Pain & Demon Slayin' (2016), and Scott's "Stop Trying to Be God" on Astroworld (2018).[7] On September 3, 2021, Kid Cudi stated via Twitter that a full length "The Scotts" album was in store for the future, though he noted that he did not know when it would happen, only that it would at some point.[8]


Background and promotion


On April 20, 2020, it was reported that Scott teamed up with Fortnite Battle Royale to start a virtual tour through the game called "Astronomical" starting on April 23 until April 25.[9] The rapper would premiere and play a new song at several different times during the game.[10] Players of the game got to hear snippets of the song before its official release.[11] In total, the concert was witnessed by an audience of over 12 million players.[12] On April 23, Scott revealed the cover art of the song on his Instagram and announced that the song would feature Kid Cudi.[13] The song title is a reference to Scott's stage surname and Cudi's real first name, who inspired Scott to take the name in the first place.[14] The cover art of the single was created by American artist Kaws.[15]


Critical reception


To Charles Holmes of Rolling Stone, the song felt "like a symbolic passing of the torch" after Scott's longstanding admiration for Cudi's work but eventually thought that "the results are mixed" despite having been "very hyped" beforehand.[16] Rap-Up described the song as an "explosive banger" with Scott igniting "the two-minute track while Cudder keeps the fire burning".[3]


Chart performance


"The Scotts" debuted at number one the Billboard Hot 100 on the week of May 9, 2020. The song became Scott's 3rd number one single and Cudi's first. The song also made Scott the sixth artist in history to have multiple songs that debuted at number one following Mariah Carey, Britney Spears, Justin Bieber, Drake and Ariana Grande.[6]
