This marked Travis’ first performance since he stepped out of the spotlight following his tragic “Astroworld Festival.”

The Blast previously reported on Travis’ plans to make a triumphant return to performing.

The “Sicko Mode” rapper has performed at a few VIP sets since his November show, but nothing to this caliber.

The Formula One Grand Prix, a high-profile race, brought a hoard of rich and famous celebrities to Miami.

You may recall the tragedy that struck Travis’ Houston, TX Astroworld Festival in November.

Ten people were killed and hundreds were injured.

In December, The Blast reported the official cause of death of the ten victims.

The massive crowd surge crushed their lungs — causing “compression asphyxia.”

According to the official coroner’s report, all ten victims of the terrible tragedy died due to being suffocated by the pressure from the surging crowd. All of the victim’s official cause of death is listed as “compression asphyxia.” As you know, many of them were rushed to local hospitals after collapsing inside the concert.

Interestingly, one of the ten victims had a “contributory cause” to his death. Illegal drugs were found in his system.

According to the records, the combined toxic effects of cocaine, methamphetamine, and alcohol were a secondary cause leading to the death.

In this case, autopsies were performed for each victim.

In the aftermath of Astroworld, multiple lawsuits have been brought against the rapper with some seeking BILLIONS in damages.

Travis maintains his innocence, and has not taken fault for the multiple deaths and overall tragedy. He broke his silence following the November 5 melee.

The interview came after a $10 billion lawsuit was filed, in addition to one seeking $2 billion, in damages.

“The Breakfast Club” host Charlamagne Tha God took to his YouTube channel and uploaded an hour-long interview with the “Sicko Mode” rapper. There, Travis continued to emphasize that he had no idea what was going on in the crowd of over 50,000 people.

Tragedy struck while he was performing at the end of the night, and brought Drake out. Several fans in the crowd were seen begging for the concert to stop.

“It wasn’t really until minutes into the press conference that I found out exactly what happened,” Travis explains. “Even after the show, you’re just hearing things. But I didn’t know the exact details until minutes before the press conference. And even at the moment, you’re like, ‘Wait. What?’ You just went through something, and it’s like, ‘What?’”

Travis continued to emphasize that he didn’t know any attendees had died at his show until that press conference officially began.

To honor the victims of his festival, Travis launched “Project HEAL.”

It is “a multi-tier initiative dedicated to addressing challenges facing today’s youth, especially those from marginalized at-risk communities.”

Project HEAL partners with Cactus Jack Foundation to unite initiatives that focus on social issues such as “academic scholarships, free mental health resources, a creative design center, and a first-ever, tech-driven solution for event safety.”
