"Topia Twins" is a song by American rapper Travis Scott featuring fellow American rapper Rob49 and Atlanta-based rapper 21 Savage from the former's fourth studio album Utopia (2023). The song was produced by Scott, Wheezy, and Cadenza, with additional from Dez Wright and Hoops. A song of the trap subgenre, the lyrics orientate around the rappers' voluptuaries.[1]

Critical reception

The song received generally positive reviews from music critics. Robin Murray of Clash described it as a "club-focused bouncer".[2] Mike Destefano of Complex said, "the song that has stuck with me is 'Topia Twins.' As much as I love the experimental tracks on Utopia, this feels like one of those classic Travis Scott tracks to me that was great to hear after waiting five years since Astroworld dropped. Rob49 and 21 Savage deliver some of the best rapping on the project." He also regarded Rob49's verse in the song to be the best feature of Utopia, while commenting 21 Savage has a "great feature verse" as well.[3] In a review of Utopia, Alphonse Pierre of Pitchfork stated "one of the basic attributes we expect from rappers is to be real with us, or at least convince us that they're not purely bullshitting", before commenting that "blank moshpit-ready tracks such as 'Topia Twins' just come off as deflections."[4] Andre Gee of Rolling Stone said, "One immediately wants to hear Rob49 again after Scott follows up his short verse on 'Topia Twins.'"[5] Aron A. of HotNewHipHop wrote that Rob49 highlights his talents in the song, but 21 Savage's verse "doesn't necessarily add anything exciting to 'TOPIA TWINS.'"[6] Vulture's Craig Jenkins stated the song "benefits from 21's deadpanned threats".[7]

Mackenzie Cummings-Grady of Billboard placed the song at number 18 (second-to-last) in her ranking of the songs from Utopia.[8]
