Travis Scott Settles Lawsuit with Ezra Blount’s Family, More Legal Battles Ahead
Travis Scott has reached a settlement with the family of nine-year-old Ezra Blount, who tragically passed away during the Astroworld Festival in 2021. The lawsuit, which was set to go to trial in September, has been resolved out of court, according to The Houston Chronicle.
The details of the settlement have not been disclosed to the public, but Scott, Live Nation, and Apple have all come to an agreement with the Blount family. Scott West, the lawyer for the family, expressed their satisfaction with the resolution, stating that they are looking forward to the healing process and will never forget their son, Ezra.
Despite this settlement, Scott still faces a separate class action lawsuit in October related to the hundreds of injuries sustained at the festival. This upcoming trial is expected to be more challenging to settle out of court.
The Astroworld tragedy has been a lengthy and difficult saga for all involved, and it is hoped that all the victims can find peace after such a traumatic event. As the legal proceedings continue, the music world awaits updates on Travis Scott’s upcoming projects and performances.
