Travis Scott’s Rome show was a massive success. Highlighting the show’s energy, the Italian Institute of Geophysics and Volcanology’s Giovanni Diaferia shared the pulsating jumps of the crowd registered at a seismic station 9 km away.

Diageria notes that 60,000 people in unison delivered the seismic energy of a 1.3 magnitude earthquake.

At the CIRCUS MAXIMUS Rome show Kanye West has returned to the stage. During Travis Scott’s CIRCUS MAXIMUS show broadcasting live from Rome, Italy, Ye appeared on stage in all black.

As Ye took the stage, Travis Scott put the fans on notice: “Only one human being on this mother f***ing planet that has ever walked side by side with me through anything and every mother f***ing thing.”

Later on in his set, Scott also said, “There is no UTOPIA without Kanye West, there is no Travis Scott without Kanye West, there is no Rome without Kanye West”

During Ye’s time on stage, he performed “Praise God” and returned to his Graduation days for “Can’t Tell Me Nothing.” You can see the social media footage below.

'Drink Champs' Episode Featuring Kanye West Pulled From YouTube as N.O.R.E. Offers Apologies

Kanye West reportedly smells a bit different these days. Reports state his “wife,” Bianca Censori, is turned off by his hygiene.

According to Radar Online, Ye’s fashion choice is to highlight his brilliant mind and hide a bit of weight, but when it all comes off “a serious stench” is released.

“He wears these outfits partly because he genuinely believes they showcase his fashion genius and forward-thinking,” the insider told Radar. “But it’s also to cover him having gained a little weight.”

Another added, “It’s a serious stench when the layers come off and he’s dripping in sweat head to toe — especially as he’s not big on showering — and poor Bianca’s nostrils are on the receiving end.”

Another insider noted that Kanye rarely uses deodorant, making the matters worse.

60 Fans Injured At Travis Scott Concert In Rome

Travis Scott

According to confirmed news reports, several fans suffered injuries at Travis Scott’s show in Rome, Italy at the Circus Maximus on Monday(August 7).

After the show was over, about 60 fans reported injuries and needed medical attention. Even though the possibility for this to happen exists at any concert, however, with the 2021 Astroworld tragedy attached to his name, Scott and his team will be highly scrutinized when anyone os injured at any of his shows.

No one was reported seriously injured, however, a 14-year-old that tried to sneak in the show by climbing over a structure was injured while another fan was pepper sprayed for creating riotous conditions in the same general area.

Travis Scott’s Circus Maximus Concert Injured Dozens Of Attendees

If there’s one thing you can always expect Travis Scott to inspire in people, it’s the rage. The father of two has a natural enthusiasm for life that’s undeniably contagious. Still, some would argue that he’s taken things too far a number of times over the years. His 2021 Astroworld Festival resulted in a ton of backlash for Scott after multiple people lost their lives during a tragic crowd crush. The “goosebumps” hitmaker stepped out of the spotlight for a brief period at that time. He’s since headlined festivals and, earlier this week, performed for 60,000 in Rome.

Scott was initially due to perform in Egypt at the Pyramids of Giza when UTOPIA first dropped, but that show was ultimately cancelled. Regardless, the Houston native brought an exuberant amount of energy to the historic Circus Maximus on Monday (August 7). Scott also surprised fans with an appearance from Kanye West, who hasn’t taken the stage since his controversial anti-Semitic rants. This obviously had the audience acting out in an even rowdier manner, and reportedly even led to a pepper spray incident.

As per Euro News, dozens were injured by the attack, and at least 60 sought medical treatment. Elsewhere at the show, a 14-year-old was hospitalized after falling four metres. He was apparently trying to sneak into Circus Maximus without security noticing, but ultimately hurt himself in the process. Earlier this summer one of Scott’s performances resulted in an earthquake, and this week’s was no different. Residents of Rome felt the Cactus Jack founder’s presence all throughout the city, and not all of them were pleased.

As La Flame’s listeners continue to revel in his long-awaited UTOPIA LP and Circus Maximus film, the multi-talent has been sharing more secrets about the making of his album. While he worked with an impressive roster of collaborators, including SZA, The Weeknd, and Beyonce, it turns out J. Cole nearly appeared on the record as well. Read more about what Scott said about that missed opportunity at the link below, and check back later for more hip-hop/pop culture news.

Travis Scott & Kanye West Reunited During His ‘Circus Maximus’ Concert In Italy For A Performance Of ‘Praise God’

On July 26, Travis Scott’s Egyptian fans were upset to learn that Live Nation pulled the plug on a concert scheduled to take place at the Pyramids Of Giza due to logistical issues. However, that didn’t stop Scott from putting on his Circus Maximus concert on Monday, August 7, in Rome, Italy. Ahead of his Utopia Tour, Scott treated supporters to a taste of what’s to come from the upcoming stadium run.

During the elaborate show, Scott reunited with his longtime friend and frequent collaborator Kanye West to perform their song, “Praise God,” featuring Baby Keem. In a video clip posted by XXL, the pair feed off of each other energy as they rap their respective parts of the track, which was featured on West’s 2021 album Donda.

The surprise appearance from West shocked fans as it marked his first live performance since the string of anti-Semitic remarks he made late last year. Scott took a moment to acknowledge West’s impact on his work, seeming to confirm fans’ theory that his latest album, Utopia, was inspired by West’s 2013 album Yeezus. “There is no Utopia without Kanye West,” he told the crowd. “There is no Travis Scott without Kanye West. There is no Rome without Kanye West. Make some noise for Ye.”.

Scott’s commentary could also be a subtle response to fellow rapper Asap Rocky’s recent diss at Rolling Loud Miami on July 23. In a song snippet, Rocky claimed someone stole his flow, which people online believed was a reference to Scott.

Travis Scott’s Egypt Concert May Have Been Canceled, But He Has Something Special Planned In Rome

The status of Travis Scott’s planned Utopia concert at Egypt’s Pyramids Of Giza was in doubt for some time before it was officially canceled last week. He later insisted the show would still happen one way or another, but whether or not that’s still true, Scott has moved on, at least for the moment, to Rome.

He shared an announcement on Twitter today (August 1), revealing he has an event happening in the Italian city on August 7, so next Monday.

Currently, the travisscott.com/live website linked to in the tweet simply features small text reading, “NOT FOUND.” He offered a bit more detail in his Instagram post about the event, though, writing, “FIRST STOP. UTOPIA LIVE AT CIRCUS MAXIMUS. WE OUT !!!!!TIX ON SALE AUGUST 3 10AM CET TRAVISSCOTT.COM/LIVE.” So, it’s not a screening of his Circus Maximus movie, but rather, a concert at the actual Circus Maximus, an ancient Roman chariot-racing stadium that has been used for concerts in modern times, like when Genesis performed there in 2007.

An Egypt show could still happen in the near future, though. In his aforementioned post-cancellation update, Scott wrote, “Egypt at the pyramids will happen But due to demand and detail logistics They just need a bit a time to set lay on lands. I will keep u posted on a date which will be soon love you alllll.”

Travis Scott’s “Circus Maximus”: What We Know

by

Earlier this week, Travis Scott confirmed the release date for his highly anticipated fourth studio album, Utopia. This Friday, July 28, Scott will release his first album in five years. Throughout 2023, the Houston rap superstar has been heavily promoting his next album. Scott has posted billboards in major cities and carried around a Utopia briefcase. He also announced a performance at the Egyptian Pyramids, which has since been canceled. With Utopia season in full effect, the Astroworld rapper recently revealed the first of five album covers that are available for purchase as bundle packages. 

Continuing to build buzz for the Utopia’s release, Travis Scott shared the album’s lead single, “K-pop,” featuring The Weeknd and Bad Bunny, along with a music video that teased a potential stadium tour. During his latest performance at Rolling Loud Miami, Scott declared that it was his last ever Astroworld-era set, announcing Utopia’s release date and a film titled Circus Maximus. The movie will premiere ahead of the album in theaters on Thursday, July 27. While the film’s release coincides with Scott’s album drop, information about the film itself is limited. Here is what we know so far about Travis Scott’s Circus Maximus. 

Coming Soon To Theaters

Travis Scott’s previous film was a short documentary. He released Look Mom, I Can Fly on Netflix in 2019. His latest movie, Circus Maximus, will be screened in AMC theaters nationwide. According to Scott’s website, these screenings will occur over the next few days in tandem with Utopia’s release. Most of the showings are set to happen on July 27, with a select few taking place on August 1. The bottom of the movie’s webpage specifies that “additional screenings are TBA.” A24’s logo appears on the film’s poster, but the entertainment company says the movie is not theirs, according to Variety. Regarding the film itself, Circus Maximus has a run-time of one hour and fifteen minutes.

The Movie’s Title Takes Inspiration From Ancient Rome

While not officially confirmed, the title of Travis Scott’s upcoming film likely takes its name Circus Maximus from ancient Rome. Latin for “largest circus,” the Circus Maximus was once a venue for chariot racing back in ancient Roman times. It was a spectacle of the Roman Empire, located between the Aventine and Palatine hills of the city near the Roman Forum. Today, the area once used for chariot racing is now a public park in the center of Rome. The short trailer for the movie does not show the actual Circus Maximus in the city. However, there does seem to be some sort of connection to ancient ruins. There are glimpses of Travis performing in what looks like the Amphitheater of Pompeii.

He Released A Trailer

The 34-second trailer for Circus Maximus does not reveal much information about what the film is actually about. It features a sequence of visuals, including establishing and action shots and clips of Travis Scott himself. The music featured in the trailer could potentially be on Utopia, but it is unclear as there are no vocals from Scott. Based on Travis’s history of elaborate album rollouts, the film will likely embody a unique aesthetic that he tends to create with each of his projects. So far, it is not known what the film is about or what correlation it has with the Utopia. Until the movie comes out, this is all we know so far about Travis Scott’s Circus Maximus.
