Correct, he is not an innovator/doesn't have drive for crafting quality/inspired sounding music. To top it off... doesn't actually produce.


But his brand is fukkin' massive and he doesn't talk a lot (unlike Ye)... so the machine has better control/manipulation over him.


.

Last month I was about to make a thread about “what exactly is Travis Scott music about”?

he’ll have collabs on everyone album but most the time his lyrics are nonsense/Adlib phrases

songs are pretty much 1 dimensional/basic
Subject matter wise

he’s only popular because his shows, image/brand marketability which are all things secondary to the actual music quality/content

it’s all about money not necessarily selling or creating good music

notice everything he does always has some bigger brand/merch collab and event tagged to it
And it’s promoted like crazy

it’s almost like he evolved into a hype creating industry plant

Nike specifically been pushing him hard lately

Establishing Liability for Your Injury Claim
We start with identifying the party that owns the premises where your injury occurred and determining which Texas laws apply in your case. Harris County Sports & Convention Corporation (HCSCC), a component of Harris County, operates NRG Stadium. Harris County is a government agency, and NRG Park is on county-owned property. This means the Texas Tort Claims Act and the state’s premises liability laws may apply in your case.
That's just one party.

Batool said that she suspects Scott saw what was unfolding in the crowd. "I can tell he noticed what was going on because when I was being lifted out, he pointed at a guy that wasn't okay in the crowd," she added

(He knows people are not ok)

Another video, posted on Twitter, shows him briefly stopping the concert to get an attendee medical attention.
(Again aware of people not ok)


Scott can be heard, on a loudspeaker, responding: "Who asked me to stop? You all know what you came here to do."

Another concertgoer, Cody Hartt, said on Twitter that he alerted security about the crush. Security said, "We already know, and we can't do anything to stop the show. They're streaming live," he claims.
(He directly responds)

You may be a fan but given his history, the moments leading up to, during and after the event he's going to be found responsible.

Live Nation, the security, Scott etc. All played a role in this tragedy.

well who bumrushed the VIP section ? aint none of that p*ssy ass no accountability bytch shyt over here

They lucky af . I guess a better scenario would be if half those mfs had guns . Start shooting up AstroWorld and have 80 deaths instead of 8 .

Stop excusing these cacs and nikka nerds. If it was hood nikkas , you'd be screamin for em to be killed

:hhh:

What are you even talking about?

Who should have used guns? The security? You saying the security should have started shooting people? Are you on sherm? :dwillhuh:

In no way, shape, or form is standing off to the side and tripping random people or giving out random shoulder tackles helping anything. At that point you call your superiors so that help can be given upstream because that gate is fukking lost.

If she actually tripped someone and they got hurt that’s an easy lawsuit. I’d say I was trying to get away from crowd because people were getting trampled to death and this woman tripped me and caused my injuries. I’d win too because there is no defense for what the security was doing in that video.

I bet lawyers are already lined up to jump on this shyt.

You remedial ass cac

this happened in TEXAS
How did these fans get checked for guns if they bumrushed VIP checkpoint?

Reading comprehension helps

And those security could’ve done much worse instead of tripping . Stop victim blaming and blame the nerds bumrushing checkpoints for @Another Man

There's like 3 big Travis Scott threads going between TLR and The Booth, and all 3 have different tones: serious, apathetic, and then there's clowning :dead:

Travis will be held liable for this, and he does share some culpability in what happened. But some of the takes in here are wild and off base. If historical precedent is anything, look at The Who Cincinnati concert tragedy in 79 or The Rolling Stones at Altamont in 69. This will hopefully lead to better security and tighter restrictions to prevent this sort of thing happening in the future. But I don’t think this will tank his career and I don’t think he should be directly to blame in spite of fans trying to tell him or the crew directly what happened. It’s a loud, frenzied environment where you don’t know what to think unless you see or hear something directly. He was in front of thousands of people, he had no way of knowing the severity of the incident even if he saw ambulances carrying people away. This is not the first time tragedy has taken place at a concert or the last, unfortunately. This is largely on security for not being on the ball and the venue for not properly accounting for crowd size. Scott can be blamed for inciting the crowd and fostering a wild environment but I wouldn’t lay these deaths directly or solely on his feet like that.

If it’s true somebody was running around injecting people with drugs though, and it actually was responsible for the deaths, that’s something extremely different and something needs to be done about the security and venue where that was able to happen. Stampeding and the like are an unfortunate side effect of having large crowds of people together but some weirdo running around with a needle shooting people up is a totally different animal and something needs to be done about that.
