Even before the tragic tragedy at Astroworld in Houston’s NRG Park, Travis Scott’s career was marked by a swirl of disputes and legal concerns involving the safety of his concerts, where he consistently encouraged fans to aaalt the platform. These issues had to do with the fact that Travis Scott routinely encouraged fans to aaalt the stage. The Houston native, who was born Jacques Webster, is said to have been convicted at least twice for disorderly conduct at previous shows: once in 2015 for allegedly encouraging fans to climb over security barricades and storm the stage at Chicago’s Lollapalooza festival, and again in 2017 during a tour stop at the Walmart Arkansas Music Pavilion, where a crowd surge severely injured a police officer and a security guard, among other people. Jacques Webster is currently 30 years old.
Those episodes, however, were merely preludes to what transpired on November 5 at the Astroworld festival, which Scott launched in 2018 following the release of his chart-topping album “Astroworld.” The festival took place in Las Vegas. At the event, which was completely sold out, there was a crowd stampede that occurred during one of his performances, and it resulted in ten people losing their lives and hundreds more receiving injuries. One of the victims, Ezra Blount, who was nine years old at the time, had a medical procedure done to produce a coma prior to his eaT on November 14.
Now, in the face of massive civil claims against Scott and concert promoter LiveNation, as well as the possibility of criminal charges, it is widely believed that the musician known as “Sicko Mode” is currently holed up in his Houston home, which is located less than four miles from where the fatal Astroworld festival occurred. Reports claim that his pregnant fiancée Kylie Jenner has been observed at the house in recent days. As could be expected, the home is heavily secured, with at least five security guards present at all times.
According to the records kept by the county, Scott purchased the modern home in 2019 under the radar, despite the fact that few people were aware that he already owned a mansion in the area. Although it is unknown how much he paid for the property, which had a previous asking price of $14.5 million, Texas is notoriously known for being notoriously cheap in such issues. The 1.5-acre, gated property in Houston’s Museum District was constructed in 2005 by architect Christopher Robertson of Robertson Design for his late parents, philanthropists James and Carolyn Robertson. The property features walls of glass with views of Hermann Park, Mecom Fountain, and the Museum of Fine Arts. Christopher Robertson designed the property for his parents before they passed away.
Three stories tall and hewn from massive quantities of limestone, black steel, and glass, the main house has 12,000 square feet of living space with three bedrooms and 8.5 restrooms. Two swimming pools, an outdoor entertainment pavilion, and a distinct guesthouse are among the amenities. A circular driveway encircled by landscaped gardens leads to the residence, which features a pivoting 600-pound front door. All of the expansive rooms feature double-height ceilings, Italian marble floors, Venetian plaster walls, and arched glass windows.

A double-height living room with a mezzanine level encased in a Ԁгаmɑtic curvilinear mahogany floor and ceiling stands out in particular. In addition, there is a sitting area with a complete bathroom and sliding doors leading to an enclosed patio, as well as a mahogany-paneled executive office with built-in bookcases.

A long hallway leads to the master suite, which features a coffee bar, mahogany-lined closets, and a spa-like bathroom. The second floor contains additional bedroom suites, while the third floor features a fitness room and an expansive roof terrace.

A grassy lawn winds past a cascade and stream to the rear of the property, where a pool is flanked by a Baja shelf. A pavilion with a large television and seating area, a full summer kitchen, an outdoor dining area, and a fireplace completes the design.

When Scott finally makes the decision to leave Houston for good, it is reasonable to assume that he will take refuge in the $23.5 million property in Brentwood that he purchased earlier this summer. In the beginning of this year, he invested an additional $5.8 million into the property that was next door.
Over the course of the past several years, Scott has emerged as one of the most valuable commodities on the contemporary music scene. Since 2016, he has had 73 singles chart on the Billboard Hot 100, with nine of those songs reaching the top 10 and four of those songs reaching No. 1 respectively. This hip-hop popularity has given rise to an increasingly corporate American money juggernaut; Scott struck a $20 million contract with McDonald’s last year, which will bring his total earnings for the year 2020 to $39.5 million. And according to Forbes, in 2019, his worldwide Astroworld tour brought in an astounding $53.5 million in revenue. This figure does not include earnings from sales of his iconic Cactus Jack gear and products.
