"3500" is a song by the American rapper Travis Scott featuring fellow American rappers Future and 2 Chainz, from the former's debut studio album, Rodeo (2015). It was released as the album's lead single on June 8, 2015, following several teasers earlier in the month. Both rappers wrote the track alongside Allen Ritter, Mano, Metro Boomin, Mike Dean, and Zaytoven, who produced it with Scott. The song was originally made during a session with Kanye West, who wanted to release it as a single for his album, The Life of Pablo (2016), before giving it to Scott. Musically, "3500" is a dark trap song with themes of drug use and being "real", with the title referencing a New York Post headline about American media personality Kim Kardashian.
"3500" received positive reviews from music critics upon release, with most praising the production and each rapper's performance, and it has since been cited as one of Scott's best songs. Commercially, it charted on the Billboard Hot 100 and Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs charts at numbers 82 and 25, respectively. Scott has since performed the single at live shows, with certain performances receiving either praise or criticism from media outlets due to Scott's actions during them.
