A massive, multi-billion dollar lawsuit is now topping the pile of claims against rappers Travis Scott and Drake & organizers of the Astroworld Festival in Houston earlier this month.
This comes after the event left 10 people dead and hundreds more injured following a crowd surge during Scott’s performance at NRG Stadium. Over 50,000 people attended the festival.
San Antonio-based attorney Thomas J. Henry filed the $2 billion lawsuit Thursday on behalf of 282 victims & it’s targeting a long list of defendants.
The lawsuit is seeking up to $2 billion in damages from Scott, Aubrey Drake Graham (Drake), Apple Music, Live Nation & NRG Stadium.
“The defendants stood to make an exorbitant amount of money off of this event & they still chose to cut corners, cut costs & put attendees at risk,” said Henry in a statement. “My clients want to ensure the defendants are held responsible for their actions, & they want to send the message to all performers, event organizers & promoters that what happened at Astroworld cannot happen again.”
Houston police are still investigating the tragedy that unfolded at Astroworld, & as of earlier this week, the Harris County administrator will also be conducting a separate investigation.
Hundreds more lawsuits have already been filed against Scott, Drake and event organizers. As of last check, no one has been criminally charged.
