Travis Scott stops concert in order to avoid another disastrous event
Due to the fans’ dangerous move, the rapper decided to stop the concert since he did not want another situation like the Astroworld to occur again. The singer had previously been criticized after he did not stop his concert at Astroworld despite the chaos that ensued, but Travis’ recent move shows that he has learned his lesson. Moreover, since the arena was fully packed, the event would have turned into a disaster if even one of the fans fell off the light pole.
