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.

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.
