After the Astroworld tragedy, Travis Scott’s name has been held in controversy for apparent reasons. Eight people lost their lives at the concert event, as we’ve reported, and it would seem that he would be painted in a very bad light many times over since the tragedy took place.

So yeah…his events have been unsafe and he was aware of it, but what has recently come to light, is that he wasn’t only aware of it, but rather proud of the mayhem that took place at his shows in the past. He took liberties to gloat that his concerts were so high-octane and dangerous. He would actually post these declarations on social media of all places – something that has now come to haunt the rapper.

Some of the telling Travis Scott posts from the past said:

“Last day of the tour was tonight very wild. To that kid who blackout. Ur a hero.”

“To that kid that didn’t survive the rodeo. Ur a hero in (my) book.”

Apparently the star also went to dinner after the events at Astroworld, according to a report at nypost.com, which shows just how concerned he was about what went down. He did issue an apology video, but what many are calling an event that ushered the opening of the gates to hell, it was perhaps expected that he do a lot more than simply apologize. The fact that he did nothing to stop the show and the events that subsequently occurred once the mayhem got started tells another story altogether.
