US Rapper Jacques Bermon Webster II aka Travis Scott was arrested early Thursday morning at the Miami Beach Marina for disorderly intoxication and trespassing.
According to the Mirror, court reports indicate that Scott was taken into custody at the Turner Guilford Knight Correctional Centre at approximately 4:35 a.m. after causing a disturbance on a charter boat.
Miami Beach Police Department officers stated that Scott, 33, was intoxicated and repeatedly asked to leave the boat, but he refused to comply, revealing that “he was drunk, causing a disturbance, and asked to leave multiple times.”
The ‘Sicko Mode’ crooner is well-known for his energetic performances and chart-topping hits.
Scott rose to fame in the early 2010s. His unique blend of hip-hop, trap, and psychedelic music quickly earned him a massive following.
His 2018 album, ‘Astroworld’, was a critical and commercial success, debuting at number one on the Billboard 200 and spawning hits like ‘Sicko Mode.’
Beyond his music career, Scott has made headlines for his high-profile relationship with reality star Kylie Jenner, with whom he has a daughter, Stormi Webster.
Scott has also been involved in various business ventures, including collaborations with major brands such as Nike and McDonald’s.
However, his career has not been without controversy.
He has faced legal issues in the past, including inciting a riot at his concerts and public intoxication.
Most notably, the tragic Astroworld Festival incident in November 2021, where a crowd surge led to multiple fatalities and injuries, resulting in numerous lawsuits and a significant impact on his public image.
