Travis Scott received mixed legal news today, but he’s not entirely out of the woods. In June, what was meant to be a routine trip to Miami took an unexpected twist for the rapper. Scott was arrested for disorderly intoxication and trespassing after a minor dispute on a yacht. Reports indicate that police asked him to leave the scene, but he was taken into custody when he returned to retrieve some items he had left behind. He was released shortly after the arrest.
This morning, a hearing was held, which Scott did not attend, where his legal team got an update on his case. The state of Florida has decided to press forward with a misdemeanor trespassing charge against him, with a trial set for September 10th. However, there was some good news—prosecutors have dropped the disorderly intoxication charge, bringing him closer to putting the matter behind him.
While Scott still has to deal with the trespassing charge, the dismissal of the other charge likely brings some relief as he navigates a hectic schedule. Recently, Scott has been busy with several projects, including a collaboration with Afrobeats star Asake. He’s also been in the spotlight after what appeared to be a diss from Killer Mike. Additionally, Scott recently teased fans with a sneak peek of a new track with Playboi Carti. The duo, known as OOCactus, is set to perform together at ComplexCon in November, and fans are eagerly anticipating what’s next.
As Scott prepares for his upcoming trial, fans are left wondering how the remaining legal issue will play out. How do you feel about the disorderly conduct charge being dropped? And what’s your take on Florida moving forward with the trespassing charge against Scott?
