I mean, besides greed and corruption.

At bare minimum he should've been barred from all live performances after Astroworld while criminal charges were pursued.

Probably because he has agents that can set these shows up?

His music is good but his live show is one of the worst concerts Ive ever seen

totally emblematic of all the very worst aspects of modern life rap shows and concerned about spectacle over all else

Which doesn't undo the fact that we could and should ban him from performing live at bare minimum.

I mean no? Or at the very least if he is doing these more precautions are going to need to be taken.

Well see if he can actually sell enough tickets at a stadium

he was supposed to headline a festival last year, Day N Vegas, that would have been his return to the stage in the US, and it was canceled within a month of announcement due to low ticket sales

No we absolutely should

Essentially it was a massive concert Scott set up. He encouraged people to jump the fence, exacerbating a bad problem with overcrowding, then when people started getting crushed(I've seen no proof he instigated that but he's also been convicted twice for dangerous conduct while performing) he encouraged people to interfere with the ambulances, then continued performing, making rescue efforts more difficult.

Because live nation gets to keep doing concerts

if you where up to date on the issue with concerts the live nation monopoly is the root of almost every issue and I dont think artist should be punished(with in reason) as long as live nation exist

Why should he not be punished when he was directly responsible for the tragedy AND he has a history of it

I'm not a Travis Scott fan, but if we banned every artist who's had injuries/deaths at their concerts from performing then soooo many bands would never perform again.

Back in the 90's I was at a Green Day & Blink 182 show that had someone get trampled in the crowd and die.

Again

This is not something that would apply to those cases, or literally any other I know of. This is unique to Scott - there's a very good chance those people would not be dead had he not done what he did, it wasn't just a case of things going wrong, he repeatedly broke the rules and did what he's been convicted for doing twice before, and people died as a result.

Why should we be concerned about punishing him, When Live Nation failed to properly plan MULTIPLE FESTIVALS and Concerts resulting in multiple deaths from multiple events.

oh Im not arguing against that. My point is why are we complaining about the little guy why the big problem continues to move unfazed.

Live nation failed at multiple points during Astro world and while Travis isnt innocent (hes rage mosh style of shoes are bound to rough and he needs to be more careful about how he energizes his fans) had live nation did their job it would of been fine.

I completely agree for the record and I want them held accountable too. I just think Scott is equally responsible.
