Travis Remained Low Key After Astroworld
Scott has gained notoriety for controversies and legal issues regarding safety at his concerts. In November 2021, a mass-casualty crowd crush occurred during Scott’s performance at the Astroworld Festival in his hometown of Houston, Texas, killing ten people and injuring hundreds of others.
The rapper also offered to cover funeral costs for the victims and spoke out emotionally following the tragedy. In the wake of the said tragedy, Scott’s appearance at Coachella 2022 was cancelled.
Several other high-profile concert appearances and a collaboration with fashion powerhouse Dior were ultimately cut because of what happened at the Astroworld concert. It came out that Travis kept performing amid the chaos, encouraging people to “get wild” and “crazy”, despite an ambulance passing through the crowd that was pulling out lifeless bodies.
However, Scott recently performed at the Billboard Music Awards in May. He was accompanied by Kylie Jenner and their daughter, Stormi Webster, for the performance. In April,  Scott appeared on his first song since the tragedy. He is featured on rapper Future and producer Southside’s track, “Hold That Heat.”
However, two months back, the news was shared that Scott was booked for the Primavera Sound Festival in Chile, Brazil and Argentina in November. Well, it is confirmed that Scott will be headlining the 2022 Day N Vegas Festival.
