Chicago based electro band Pixel Grip is calling out Travis Scott for allegedly using their 2021 track ‘Pursuit’ on his new song ‘Kick Out.’
Full details below…
The group expressed their frustration on X, posting:
“Travis Scott sampled ‘pursuit’ (without permission) in his new song ‘kick out.’ I just cant stop thinking about who else extremely famous or powerful in music knows about us and even actively likes our music but refuses to throw us a f*cking bone,” they began. “Like I almost understand not clearing a sync from like a random 99cent record from 50 years ago at a thrift store… we are active. and hungry. and spinning the wheels on the ground to trying to make a career out of thin air with only underground support.
Even just mentioning our name or putting us on a playlist or posting us to his instagram story or anything could’ve been a really big moment for us but hey travis, or travis’s team if you see this – im flattered. and Im not trying to shake yall down – would love to talk.”

‘Kick Out’ features on ‘JackBoys 2’ which dropped July 13. The track features Don Toliver, Sheck Wes, SoFargo, and more, and it’s already an early fan favorite.
Speaking to CBS News, drummer and producer of Pixel Grip Tyler Ommen confirmed:
“As soon as I had headphones on, I was like yo, y’all, this is just a sample, this is the song in the background.”
Scott’s co-producer Sean Momberger has since reached out, saying the label will clear the sample.
