When two greats unite that can only mean one thing: Greatness will ensue. 

On Wednesday (August 8), LeBron James took to Instagram Story to share a photo of what appeared to be a sit-down interview between him and Travis Scott. "Cooking up something special wit @TravisScott," he captioned the sick photo, which showed them sitting in a director's chairs while they were engrossed in deep conversation. 

If we had to guess what they were cooking up, we'd say it probably had something to with the upcoming NBA 2K19 video game, since LeBron tagged @NBA2k in the photo, and Travis' recently released album, Astroworldwhich was also tagged in the picture. 

LeBron's teaser photo came nearly a week after Travis dropped his third studio album, which the NBA star was an immediate fan of. Over the weekend, the new Laker player gave Travis a shoutout on his Instagram Story, congratulating him on his new project. He also posted a video of himself working out to "Sicko Mode," the third track on Astroworld

As previously reported, the "BUTTERFLY EFFECT" rapper dropped Astroworld on Friday (August 3), following his performance at Chicago’s Lollapalooza.

Travis' girlfriend and baby mama, Kylie Jenner, was also in town to celebrate with her man, who held a listening party for his new album later that night. 

The makeup mogul posted her support of her man on Instagram, captioning a photo of herself decked out in Astroworld gear, “you didn’t have to go this hard baby 😢 Astroworld just dropped and it’s the craziest ride of my life 😫😍😍.”
