Travis Scott is living the tour life until the smoke clears.

Travis Scott has another reason to be grateful for the success of Astroworld and it’s not because of any Billboard accomplishment or accolade. According to TMZ, the rapper’s tour is keeping him as far away as possible from the Kardashian-Jenner household amid the Jordyn Woods scandal. The rapper touches down in Buffalo tonight, keeping him miles and miles away from the Calabasas controversy.

Apparently, the family has “declared war” on Tristan Thompson for hooking up with Jordyn while they’ve urged Kylie to cut ties with her best friend. She’s agreed but everyone thinks she’s truly indecisive of her decision because of her tightknit relationship with Jordyn.

While Travis Scott might be appreciating the tour life now more than ever, he has been trying to hold does his lady throughout it all and lending her an ear whenever she needs someone to listen. However, he doesn’t really have any sides to choose from so ultimately, he’s going along with whatever Kylie’s decision is.

While he’s been distancing himself from the Kardashians in California, he was recently honored with the key to the city of Houston, Texas earlier this month. The mayor of the city presented the key to Scott on stage and revealed that they’ll be building a new amusement park due to the enthusiasm he brought with Astroworld.

“We owe so much to this guy for keeping Houston on the map,” the Mayor said about Travis. “With ‘Astroworld,’ man, and those of us that remember Astroworld, and because of him, we’re gonna bring another amusement theme park back to the city. This city loves you.”

Biggs wants to tell the story of Roc-A-Fella’s three founding fathers.

Weeks ago, it was reported that Roc-A-Fella co-founder Kareem “Biggs” Burke was back in the game, with the unveiling of a management company, his first client: cult favorite SAINt JHN. But he’s since spoken with Revolt TV for an interview where he deconstructed his plans to produce a biopic for the record label he helped bring to life in the 90s.

“Yeah, I’m working on it now,” Biggs told Revolt TV. “It’ll probably be separate stories of Jay, Damon [Dash] and myself. Showing us as kids to understand what we’ve went through — the pain and hardships.”

As he opined himself, Biggs has already laid out the storytelling framework, with three separate converging narratives, elucidating the come-up story of the three founding fathers of the ROC, himself included. In the Revolt interview, Biggs spoke about his struggles living in homeless shelters before the hitting pay dirt with the formidable three. He also hopes to gain a clearance that would allow him to retell Jay-Z’s early struggles of losing his father at the age of four and the similarly tragic circumstances that plagued a teenage Dame Dash.

Easily tackling questions on fashion, Freakazoid, and his jewelry, Offset continues his newfound habit of candor.Before long, Sean hits Offset with an interesting question about the Migosrapper’s habit of studying music industry analytics. “The numbers match up to what you are,” explains Offset. “Your worth go by your numbers. The lower the numbers, the lower your worth. That’s just how it is. As an artist, you can get lost in your mind thinking you somewhere else, like ‘I’m this good, I’m big.’ In actuality, your numbers might not match.” When Sean asks about any surefire way to craft a rap fit, Offset keeps it simple. “The Migos flow,” he states. “At one point in your career as an artist, you’re going to use that flow.”

Offset also reveals that Ric Flair personally called him, informing him that “Ric Flair Drip” was to be the official anthem of the Flair wedding. “I’m like he seriously finna walk his marriage listening to a rap song, usually it’s like a love song. When I seen his walk, he was lit, he was happy. He told me it was one of the best things to ever happen to him. He was going through a little health issue, he was like, it just gave him more drive. It was inspirational. Ric Flair was the first one with these rolexes and these jets.”

He also opens up about revealing some of the nontraditional elements of a trapper’s life, including the more vulnerable moments. “It’s okay to show a vulnerable side as a man. It’s really a great thing to do as a man, cause most men run from it,” says Offset. “I feel like you a stronger man by doing it. Instead of holding back, you just holding back your feelings, and that’s not true. We all got feelings, I don’t care how tough you supposed to be.”
