"Goosebumps" (stylized in all lowercase) is a song by American rapper Travis Scott featuring fellow American rapper Kendrick Lamar. It was sent to rhythmic radio on December 13, 2016, by Grand Hustle Records and Epic Records as the third single from Scott's second studio album, Birds in the Trap Sing McKnight.

Scott broke a Guinness World Record in 2017 for the most consecutive performances of a song during a show after he performed "Goosebumps" 15 times in a row. Spanish DJ and producer Hvme (pronounced "hume") released a reworked deep house version of the song in mid-2020, accruing millions of streams. However, it was only officially released with Scott's approval on January 15, 2021. The remix debuted at number 85 and later peaked at number 47 on the Billboard Hot 100. It also peaked at number one on the Billboard Hot Dance/Electronic Songs Chart.

The soundtrack for the 2018 film The Hate U Give featured the song.

Background

During an interview with Billboard, Scott explained how he came into contact with Lamar for "Goosebumps":

I met him at the MTV Video Music Awards one year and he came up to me and was just like, "Yo, man, I fuck with your music. It's super dope and inspirational." I was like, whoa, this is the best rapper in the globe – he fucks with my music! That's one of the things that made me want to keep working on my music and try to keep it going 'cause I'm not the most rappity rap ass nigga. That's not me but I really love Kendrick's music. I really love André [3000]'s music. I really love 'Ye's shit. I really love Jay's shit. I like rappers. It's just dope that these dudes came to La Flame's world to get down on some ill beats.

The music video was released on April 3, 2017. It was directed by BRTHR, who also directed a similar music video for The Weeknd's "Party Monster".

Chart performance

"Goosebumps" debuted at number 92 on the US Billboard Hot 100 for the week of September 24, 2016. The song then re-entered the chart several times and peaked at number 32, becoming his third top 40 hit. In January 2017, the song was certified Gold by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) for sales of over 500,000 equivalent-units in the United States. On March 28, 2017, Scott announced that the song had been certified Platinum.
