==Personal life==
Travis Scott was born on April 30, 1991, and grew up in Houston, Texas. From the age of one to six, he lived with his grandmother. Travis along with his family members are musicians. His dad was a drummer and his grandfather was a jazz composer.
He played the drums when he was three, and ended up producing his first ever song when he was thirteen. He used to start fist fights with his dad, and lying to his mother, as he spent money that she sent him for plane tickets to New York to Los Angeles on something else.
==Controversy==
=== Inciting violence ===
In 2015, during one of Travis' concerts, he encouraged his audience to climb over barricades and onto the stage with him and also to flip off security while doing so. He was arrested for this and he pleaded guilty to reckless conduct charges.
In a different concert, Travis was performing onstage when a fan tried to steal Travis' expensive shoes which he wore in the concert. The fan tried to drag Travis off the stage but failed, Travis then incited violence against the fan, spat at them, and booed at them as they were escorted out.
===2021 AstroWorld concert incident===
On November 5, 2021, Travis hosted an AstroWorld concert in Houston, Texas. Over 300 people were injured and 10 people died before, during and after the festival due to a large crowd stampede that took place hours before the concert and due to the audience being tightly packed together during the concert, which made it hard for many attendees to breath. Because of this, the audience told Travis to stop performing, but Travis refused to stop and kept performing, unlike the previous concert incident where a fan tried to steal Travis' expensive shoes, in which he stopped and incited violence against the fan during that concert.
After the incident, Travis released a statement on Twitter and an apology on Instagram, both of which received heavy backlash. Many YouTubers including PewDiePie, xQcOW, penguinz0, theneedledrop, Tabor Hill and many more expressed their outrage against Travis being unaware of what was happening in the audience as well as calling his apology bad in similar vein towards bad apologies of other YouTubers such as Logan Paul's infamous apology.
=== 2023 Nebula assault allegations ===
On March 1, 2023, Scott was performing at Nebula nightclub in New York City when a sound technician, Mark, asked him to lower the music. Scott responded by punching Mark in the head, causing him to need medical attention. Scott was found to be drinking alcohol and had damaged $12,000 in the club's sound equipment. The New York City Police Department issued a warrant for Scott's arrest on March 2, 2023.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9DYtLxDoLGk The matter was resolved with a settlement, and the NYPD did not press any charges.https://hiphopdx.com/news/travis-scott-settles-nightclub-assault
