*To celebrate his new album “Astroworld” reaching No. 1 on the album chart, Travis Scott “decided to unload” his “bank account” on fans as a show of gratitude for their support.

“SO I KNOW ITS HARD FOR THE KIDS SO I DECIDED TO UNLOAD MY BANK ACCOUNT ON U GUYS,” he tweeted Tuesday night. “IM BUSTING DOWN $100,000 AND GIVING AWAY TO ANY FANS THAT CAN TWEET ME THERE [SIC] CASH TAG WITH LYRICS FROM ASTRO. GANG !!”

Later that night, Scott announced he still had $75,000 via Cash App to give away, and continued to make it rain through Wednesday morning.

The rapper’s third studio album hit No. 1 on the Billboard charts shortly after its release last week and sales finished just behind Drake’s “Scorpion.”

Also on Wednesday, 2K Sports announced that Scott has been chosen to executive produce the soundtrack to NBA 2K19.

The announcement arrives with a coinciding video conversation between Scott and NBA 2K19 cover star LeBron James. “It’s an honor,” Scott tells James in the video. “It’s dope. I always like a chance to be able to curate music. I play 2K all the time, play with my homies mostly. I picked up 2K a year or two ago, but it became a super addiction.”

Watch below, followed by some of the tracks that made the NBA 2K19 soundtrack, due for release on Sept. 11:
