As previously reported, On Nov. 5, 2021, Travis Scott held his annual Astroworld festival in his hometown of Houston, TX. Thousands of attendees rushed the venue, resulting in a fatal crowd surge. Ten people–including a 9-year-old boy–succumbed to vital organ failure, among other serious injuries. Hundreds more were injured or traumatized by the horrific scenes they witness. Travis was accused of ignoring cries from the audience to stop the show. Many have also highlighted his history of inciting violence and chaos at his concerts.

With all the backlash Travis Scott is receiving from this devastating event, the 30-year-old rapper is now working with city officials to enforce concert safety. Sources say that Travis is teaming up with The United States Conference of Mayors (USCM), which serves as the voice of over 1,400 cities across the nation. With their new project, they hope to create a panel that consists of government, public safety, emergency response, health care event management, music, and technology. They also would like to have a safety report in place to boost safety and security at concerts.

Travis first hinted at wanting to do something similar to this during his interview with The Breakfast Club host Charlamagne tha God.
