Astroworld Festival

Sportswear giant Nike is postponing an upcoming sneaker collab with Travis Scott in the form of its classic Air Max 1 model, posting a very to-the-point statement on its SNKRS website citing the Astroworld tragedy as the reason.

As Astroworld Festival victims pile up by the hundreds, one sadly even succumbing to her injuries recently and bringing the death toll now to nine, Travis Scott has been hit with hundreds of lawsuits and more expected on the way.

Days after performing at Astroworld on Friday, Drake has issued a statement on the tragedy that left eight dead and hundreds injured.

Investigators are expected to examine the design of safety barriers and the use of crowd control in determining what led to a crush of spectators at rapper Travis Scott's Houston-based music festival that left eight people dead and hundreds more injured.
