2021 Year in Review: Tragedy Strikes at Travis Scott’s Astroworld Festival

Published: Thursday 30th Dec 2021 by Sam

Setbacks come part and parcel with most journeys.

However, for Travis Scott, one of the most pronounced lows of his career brought with it tragedy too.

On November 5, the rapper’s Astroworld Festival returned to NRG Park for its third annual installment.

Boasting multiple artists on the bill, the extravaganza saw Scott serve as the headliner and bring out a host of special guests including Drake.

However, chaos struck mid-show when a stampede broke out and caused many revelers to be crushed in the seismic melee. The concert largely continued amidst the drama; a point which served as crucial with critics. But more on that shortly.

The fallout saw Scott and many others hit with lawsuits to the tune of billions. One of the consistent critiques centered around his alleged championing of “rage culture.”

On Scott’s end, he’s maintaining that – while he is heartbroken by the tragedy – he isn’t to blame.

    RIP to the 10 bodies that were sacrificed at Astroworld.

    May those 10 protect others in the Astral World and forever follow and haunt the spirit of Travis Scott until the ending of time.

    Amen 🙏

      Whatever bish! Have you seen the video how those stupid audiences running like a bunch of zombies to entering? They were stomping on other human beings. Remember zombies can’t haunt nobody, shoot em in the head!
