Travy’s ‘SPOOKY’ Mixtape: A Dive into Irish Gold

After a year filled with exciting releases and the emergence of fresh talent in the rap industry throughout 2024, the stage is set to see what 2025 will bring. Wasting no time, breakthrough Irish artist Travy has released his debut solo mixtape, ‘SPOOKY.’ The 13-track project includes the focus single ‘Eurostar,’ a standout collaboration featuring French rapper Yvnnis and Irish rapper Reggie.

Born in Nigeria and raised in Dublin, Travy’s path was anything but smooth. Separated from his father, who served in the Nigerian military, he found solace in his dad’s iPod Nano. It was during these quiet moments of connection that his love for rap music took root—a passion that now fuels his artistry. His music embodies this raw intensity, with unfiltered emotion and an aggressive delivery that make his bars unmistakably authentic to the ear.   

With the release of SPOOKY, listeners are immersed in Travy’s sharp storytelling world. From ‘Iya Mi’ to ‘Reload,’ each track is carefully crafted, showcasing lyrics that feel far beyond his years in the industry. The mixtape’s title captures its essence perfectly—it’s spooky to witness an artist release their first solo project with such raw talent and depth, especially coming from a city that has yet to solidify its place in the rap scene.

Among the mixtape’s standout tracks are ‘FSSH’ and ‘Master Shifu,’ both of which shine with their unique production and Travy’s commanding presence. The opium-inspired beat of FSSH, combined with his raw, gritty bars, creates a powerful formula for a potential hit. Meanwhile, Master Shifu distinguishes itself with an Asian-influenced instrumental that enhances Travy’s sharp, yet irresistibly catchy lyrics.

The mixtape takes another exciting turn with the arrival of Eurostar, a track that underscores Travy’s effortless ability to glide between diverse beats and bars. It’s a bold declaration of his rising presence on the global stage, amplifying the importance of putting Ireland firmly on the musical map. Yvnnis and Reggie also bring their unique talents into the mix, crafting a certified banger that demands attention.
