Travis Scott Performed (And DJ’d) At A Coachella Afterparty Despite Being Dropped From The Lineup

There’s not really a roadmap for getting your rap career back on track after a crowd-control incident at one of your concerts leaves ten people dead, but Travis Scott is attempting to create one. Despite being dropped from the Coachella lineup this past December following the previous month’s Astroworld tragedy, Scott performed at an afterparty, according to reports from TMZ and E!.

At a La Quinta, California function, about ten minutes away from the Empire Polo Club, where Coachella’s Saturday night festivities headlined by Billie Eilish were wrapping up, Scott reportedly grabbed the mic at 3 a.m. and even got behind the turntables. The party was put on by the David Arquette-owned West Hollywood club Bootsy Bellows and a source at the party told E!, “Travis got in the DJ booth with the DJ Chase B. He played the bangers but ‘Goosebumps’ was the crowd please [sic].”

This is the second time Scott has performed since the Astroworld tragedy, as he made an appearance at a pre-Oscars event last month. He’s not exactly keeping a low profile anymore, as a series of four billboards promoting his upcoming album/project Utopia appeared on the Interstate-5 road to Coachella last week. The four billboards each read a part of a phrase that when put together read: “PSST……Looking for UTOPIA? WRONG WAY,” and then the fourth billboard just featured the logo for Scott’s label Cactus Jack.

Travis Scott Surprises Fans with Performance at Coachella After-Party

Travis Scott may not be a Coachella headliner for this year’s music festival, but he did make a surprise (and incredibly low-key) appearance at one of the festival’s after-parties, surprising fans with a five-song set.

Scott surprised fans when he took the stage at the Revolve x Bootsy Bellows After Party, which was being held in the nearby city of La Quinta at about three in the morning, just as the event was about to shut down. The rapper reportedly simultaneously DJ’d while performing five of his hits including “Goosebumps,” reportedly delighting the audience.

The rapper’s low-key appearance was not the first time that he had performed since the November 6 Astroworld tragedy. He also performed at Darren Dzienciol and Richie Akiva‘s pre-Oscars party at a private estate in Bel-Air earlier this year.

Earlier this year, there were rumors that Scott would join Kanye West on stage as West was originally billed as a Coachella headliner. However, West pulled out of Coachella on April 5, less than two weeks before the festival.

Scott’s girlfriend, Kylie Jenner, was seen at Coachella alongside Hailey Bieber on Saturday, but there was no mention as to whether or not she attended the after-party to watch Scott perform.

Bootsy Bellows After Party has billed itself as “a surreal playground for adults and has become the elite hangout for Los Angeles partygoers.” Their pop-up events at major festivals appear to mimic that same energy, hosting major artists such as Scott, The Chainsmokers, Chase B, and DJ Irie. Scott also performed at one of the brand’s pop ups in Austin during the Big Race Weekend in October of 2021.
