Travis Scott’s London O2 gigs marked his first arena show in London after a deadly stampede claimed 10 lives at his Astroworld festival performance last year.
His latest concert did not proceed without incident, as an audience member threw a heavy object onto the stage but missed Travis.
Travis appeared to be irritated by the disruption to his set, but he kept rapping and refused to allow the disturbance to unhorse him.
Support: The rapper was supported at the gigs by his girlfriend Kylie Jenner and their daughter Stormi. The couple also share a son, Wolf, whom they welcomed this February
The rapper was supported at the gigs by his girlfriend Kylie Jenner and their daughter Stormi. The couple also share a son, Wolf, whom they welcomed this February.
In November, when Kylie was pregnant with their son, she attended Travis’ Astroworld festival concert where a deadly crush of bodies occurred.
The death toll from the tragic incident rose to 10 when a nine-year-old boy named Ezra Blount succumbed to his injuries.
Travis largely pulled back from the spotlight after Astroworld, and plans for him to appear at Coachella this year were scrapped.
