The drama unfolded in France when Travis Scott, seemingly annoyed, swatted away a young fan’s arm as he asked for a picture. The fan quickly apologized as Scott gave a half-hearted thumbs-up before walking away.
DJ Kid Capri did not hold back, criticizing Scott in a video online. “Ayo, Travis Scott, when did we start being disrespectful to kids, bruh?” Capri questioned, expressing his disappointment. He reminded Scott that he once would have been excited for such attention.
Capri also touched on a darker moment in Scott’s career, referencing the tragic Astroworld Festival incident where 10 people lost their lives. “Celebs get where they get, and then they forget,” Capri said. “I’m not saying it’s your fault, but I would try to be as humble as possible when it comes to the fans, bruh. They lift you up.”
Capri’s comments ignited discussions on social media, with many fans expressing their mixed feelings about Scott’s behavior. Some defended Scott, citing past instances where he showed love to his fans, while others echoed Capri’s call for more humility.
Earlier this year, Scott did show a generous side, gifting a fan his unreleased Nike sneakers after a concert. He warned the fan not to sell them, showing his softer side. However, incidents like the one in France continue to cast a shadow over his public image.
Scott has yet to respond to Kid Capri’s comments, leaving fans and critics alike waiting to see how he addresses this latest controversy.
The incident highlights the ongoing debate about celebrity behavior and responsibility. Travis Scott’s actions and Kid Capri’s response serve as a reminder that humility and respect remain essential, especially for those in the spotlight. Whether Scott will take this advice to heart remains to be seen.
