In a February 2021 interview with i-D, Travis Scott opened up about the incomparable responsibility of being a father. Calling daughter Stormi his "inspiration" in everything he does, the Grammy-nominated rapper explained, "I realized my job is way more important than what I thought because of her. More responsibility, you know? You've got to use that properly. ... Fatherhood just be like, I don't live for myself anymore. I was already going so hard for the fans and now, oh man, Stormi, it's like ... I love that." Scott went on to tell the outlet that becoming a parent has influenced every other aspect of his life, including work. "Fatherhood influences my job. It has huge impact," the "Hats Off" rapper told i-D, revealing that Stormi is "always interested" in everything around her. Likewise, she "catches on and learns things and adapts to things so fast." Scott also acknowledged the vast difference between his generation and hers, noting that his own siblings are completely different from Stormi. 

Though Scott and Jenner split in 2020 (and eventually reconciled), they continued to prioritize their daughter even amid the breakup. "Kylie and Travis are co-parenting amazingly right now and love spending time together with Stormi and making her happy," a source told Us Weekly at the time of the split. In particular, the insider praised Scott as "a hands-on, super engaged dad [who] always wants to make Stormi smile." Clearly, he knows what he's doing in the parenting department!
