The rapper has been staying under the radar since the tragedy that unfolded at his Astroworld music festival, where 10 people were killed after the crowd surged during Scott's headline performance.

Since then, numerous lawsuits have piled up against Scott and Live Nation, the event's promoter.


The 31-year-old Houston native was recently slammed with a separate lawsuit for allegedly inciting crowd violence during his set at Rolling Loud Music Festival in 2019.
