Is Travis Scott Making a Comeback Since Astroworld Tragedy?

Travis Scott is set to make a comeback!  The Houston rapper headlined two concerts in London this past weekend.  It has been nine months since his Astroworld music festival.  Unfortunately, 10 attendees were killed with hundreds injured at that festival forcing Travis Scott to lay low for several months.  It’s hard for people to forget what happened that day.

Astroworld

 In November 2021 at the NRG Park in Houston, Texas the Astroworld Festival took place.  With over 50,000 people in attendance, during Travis’s set, the crowd tried to rush towards the stage.  Rushing the stage caused many people to be stuck and out of breath.  Investigators of the incident named compression asphyxia as the cause of death for the 10 victims.  Compression asphyxia is where there is no respiration in your body because of external pressure.  Unfortunately, the concert still went on even with all the commotion leading people to questions Scott’s motives.

Performance in London

In front of 20,000 fans at the O2 Arena, Scott performed new songs from his next album, Utopia.  The album is set to have verses from Swae Lee, Bryson Tiller, and 21 Savage.  He even treated fans to a track featuring Kanye West.  The track titled, “God’s Country” was supposed to be on Kanye’s Donda album, but it never made it.  Scott also performed “Lost Forever”, featuring Westside Gunn and James Blake.  He debuted this song at the Billboard Music Awards earlier this year.

Travis Celebrates

After his show, he was met by his good friends NBA stars James Harden and Kevin Durant.  They embraced him and celebrated him for his first headlining show since Astroworld festival.  His wife, Kylie Jenner, and Stormi were also there to support him.  Kylie caught the celebration on camera and posted the trio to social media.  In the video, Travis can be seen shirt-off, yelling, and screaming banging his hand against the door.  James Harden joins him while Kevin Durant pops a bottle of champagne.  This video was met with criticism as fans thought he was being insensitive after what happened at his festival.  They said he is still “raging” and isn’t a good look.

With his fourth studio album in the works, people are wondering if Utopia will honor the victims of the Astroworld festival.  Fans feel he should at least mention it on the album.  Before the album, he has a residency at Las Vegas from September 17-October 15.  “Road to Utopia” consists of seven shows and will be at the Zouk nightclub.

Travis Scott slowly returns to the spotlight after Astroworld tragedy.

Although the “Highest In The Room” rapper is facing many lawsuits after 10 people died, and hundreds injured at his Astroworld Festival, he seems to be mentally recovering from the tragedy, moving forward with life. After taking some time away from the spotlight, a few months ago back in March, FM Hip-Hop reported that the 31-year-old performed for the first time since the unfortunate event. As many outlets have reported, in the moment he had no idea how serious things were. Travis feels terrible for the lives lost and the families suffering. He also performed at the Billboard Music Awards in May and will be headlining his first festival at Day N Vegas in Las Vegas in September. The “Sicko Mode” rapper will then hit Sao Paolo to headline Primavera Sound in November.

Travis Scott’s new Bugatti isn’t the only thing exciting in his life as he welcomes baby boy into the world!

Back in February Travis and Kylie welcomed their second child just a day after their daughter Stormi’s birthday. The Couple welcomed their baby boy on 2/2/22 naming him Wolf, before deciding to change his name which still remains unknown to the public.

Travis Scott Compliments Kylie Jenner On Instagram, Which He Almost Never Uses

Out of all their years of dating, Travis Scott hasn’t mentioned Kylie Jenner on his social media until now.

Yesterday, Mr. “Sicko Mode” posted a picture of his girlfriend cooking in the kitchen. In the rapper’s words, she was “in here throwing that a** down.”

No one knows what the Kylie Cosmetics founder was prepping, but the rapper immediately deleted the photo. It’s unknown what prompted him to remove Kylie’s snapshot. 

Kylie Jenner followed the same sentimental move by posting her hubby on Father’s Day. Applauding his efforts as a dad, she penned, “Happy father’s day daddyyyyy we love you.” The caption was linked with a slideshow of him holding their 4-month-old son while eating noodles and sleeping alongside their 4-year-old daughter, Stormi. The Astroworld wordsmith responded with several heart emojis spelling out the letters to “love.”

In other words, Travis Scott wrote, “L❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️EEE YAAAA.” As the day went on, Jenner posted a picture of him and their baby wearing matching Nike sneakers.

The experimental rap musician and Kylie Jenner became an item in 2017 after meeting for the first time at Coachella. Without delay, the two hit it off! Their daughter Stormi was born a year later, with their son arriving four years later. Initially, their 4-month-old son’s name was Wolf, but Jenner announced that she decided to change it. In March, she unveiled on Instagram, “FYI our son’s name isn’t Wolf anymore. We just really didn’t feel like it was him.” Later that month, she gave fans a virtual tour of his nursery.

In the video, you can see his room full of toys, stuffed animals, and board books.

Although the couple took a break in 2019, they’ve been stronger than ever.

A source close to the family told US Magazine, “Stormi has been helping out and is so excited about being a big sister. They are focusing all their time and energy on their new baby. [They’re both] very hands-on.” 

Talks of marriage have been circulating in Jenner’s head for a while. However, she wants to continue working on her brand and other independent endeavors.

The anonymous friend adds, “She does like her independence but can’t imagine herself long-term with anyone other than Travis Scott.”

Earlier, this year, the couple dropped a 10-minute documentary titled “For Our Son,” dedicated to their latest family addition. It’s similar to the short film they dropped in 2018, “For Our Daughter,” when their daughter Stormi was born. It just so happens, Stormi’s birthday falls just one day before her baby brother’s, on February 1.

What Is The Couple Up To?

In 2020, the couple took a brief break. They confirmed they still cared about each other and the hiatus wasn’t permanent. The co-parented, and in early 2021, they were back together. They confirmed the second pregnancy last August. After last November’s tragic Astroworld incident, the couple has mostly been lying low. Over 300 people suffered injuries, and 10 people died. After the fact, Scott offered to pay for the victim’s funerals. However, some families of the victims declined the offer.

In March of this year, the “Sicko Mode” rapper launched community-focused Project Heal through his Cactus Jack Foundation. It’s a multi-million dollar endeavor meant to address safety His actions received mixed reviews, because while some people found it admirable, other’s see it as a PR stunt.

Regardless, the couple is always in the news alongside the rest of the Kardashian-Jenner clan. The pair hasn’t announced the new name of their son. But when they do, it’s certain to make headlines.

Tory Lanez Brags On Lawyers Meeting

The legal fight between Megan Thee Stallion and Tory Lanez continues and is getting more attention from the entertainment media. However, everything points the drama will solve soon.

Tory Lanez’s Instagram Post

Today, February 2, the Canadian artist shared a photo on his Instagram of himself in a red sports car while sticking out his middle finger and pointing it at the camera. “Just got off the phone with my lawyer,” Tory Lanez wrote in the caption of the photo.

According to the photograph, all indications indicate a bright future regarding Tory Lanez’s case against Megan Thee Stallion. No further details are available at this time.

The Aggression Against Megan Thee Stallion

In October 2020, the singers were returning from a party organized by the cosmetics company Kylie Cosmetics, Kylie Jenner. Megan Thee Stallion and Tory Lanez had a firm dispute that went from shouting and cursing to physical blows. Megan Thee Stallion then received shots in both feet.

Meg then faced accusations of faking the wounds on her feet. Days later, Megan Thee Stallion publicly blamed Tory Lanez as the triggerman.

The Los Angeles County District Attorney’s Office charged Lanez with assault with a semiautomatic firearm. Also, one count of carrying a loaded, unregistered gun.

But Tory Lanez denies having shot Megan Thee Stallion. In defense, Tory wrote and released a full-length album entitled DAYSTAR, which is heavily criticized as an attempt to clear his name.

Megan Thee Stallion And Friend

According to TMZ, the independent witness told the police they saw Megan and a friend, later identified as Kelsey, fighting moment before Stallion was shot.

During the preliminary court hearing, a detective testified that the independent witness saw the gun’s muzzle flash off closer to Kelsey than Tory.

What’s your take on the Tory Lanez’s, Megan Thee Stallion’s, and now also the friend Kelsey’s case? Who do you think will turn out guilty?

Drake And Kylie Trend On Social Media For Allegedly Sleeping Together

“Aw, sh*t here we go again,” says the popular meme. That’s many people’s response to rumors that Drake slept with Kylie Jenner, for the millionth time. A woman who says she’s one of Tristan Thompson’s baby mothers, re-ignited it. She goes by the name of Maralee Nichols.

“You said that you planned to leave Khloe… it wasn’t working and hasn’t been for years and you were retiring from the NBA after this year and planned to leave Cali,” Maralee Nichols wrote on Instagram. She posted the long message in her stories.

Nichols continued.

“Sad that I have to threaten to expose the Kardashians for a response smh. You know Drake slept with Kylie last year but you aren’t man enough to tell Travis (Scott). Welp. There it is. Good night folks. More tomorrow.”

Afterward, Twitter got wind of Nichols posts and went haywire. As a result, commenters had a lot to say.

Drake and Kylie were romantically linked back in 2019. There was speculation that they were dating when Kylie broke up with her boyfriend, Travis Scott. Although neither party confirmed, a leaked Drake song implied Kylie was a side piece in 2020. However, Drake apologized for it on Instagram saying, “Last thing I’d want to do is wake up and have any friends of mine feeling disrespected so I just had to say that to start off the day.”

While Twitter was having a field day with the drama, Drake was busy preparing for his Larry Hoover benefit concert with Kanye. The LA concert took place last night, and streamed live on Amazon.

Kylie, on the other hand, is busy being pregnant with her second child with Travis.

Drake and Kylie have not responded to the rumors.

Travis Scott’s Cati is Here… And In Demand

Hip Hop Star Travis Scott (b.k.a Mr. Kylie Jenner) has stepped in the footsteps of Hip Hop entrepreneurs like Diddy by launching his new alcoholic beverage Cati, and it seems fans were more than ready for it.

The rapper, who is on the fast track to becoming a master at branding, visited a few stores where his product was being supplied. But at the WeHo Pavillon, it tuned pretty chaotic. Fans were waiting for the rap star to show up and followed Travis into the store, where they asked (and some demanded) autographs from Mr. Scott on everything from bodies to sneakers. Fans weren’t at all concerned about social distancing, but in fact, putting workers at the store in danger.

Some of his fans appeared to be anti-vacs, demanding that the rap star give autographs while unprotected.

Travis obliged fans while still promoting his Cati seltzer and brand.

The Kardashian brand is in effect, and Travis is undoubtedly benefiting from it.

Travis Scott Explains Deleted Instagram

Just a few days ago, rapper Travis Scott (@trvisXX) deleted his Instagram following extensive negative comments about his Halloween costume. Although he tends to keep a low profile on social media, Scott decided to show off his costume on Instagram. Fans immediately started trolling him for his chocolate brown Batman costume. Many claimed he looked like some type of bug instead of a superhero. The ‘Astroworld’ star has finally cleared the air and come out with the real reason why he deleted his Instagram.

Apparently, Scott was unbothered by the insults of his costume and wanted to spend more time with his family. The 29-year-old rapper chose to delete the app from his phone so that he could “stop being consumed with social media”, he told sources.

An insider told Page Six (@pagesix) that Scott wants to focus on his family’s well-being during “such a critical time in the world right now”. With the coronavirus pandemic and the US presidential election going on, Scott urges his fans to take a step back from social media like he has. He and Kylie Jenner (@kyliejenner) have been raising their two-year-old Stormi together. Sources claim they have been “co-parenting amazingly”. Although they are no longer in a relationship, they love spending time together with Stormi.

Sources say the Houston rapper is a very “hands on, engaged dad and always wants to make Stormi smile.” Although he and mother Kylie are not together, they enjoy secret dinner dates out of the public eye. In early October, they celebrated pumpkin carving day with Stormi. They also got together for her first day of online learning.
