The upcoming tour follows Scott’s first post Utopia performance that was held on August 7 at the Circus Maximus in Rome where it featured a surprise guest performance from Kanye West

Last month Houston police released a report on Astroworld, where Scott recalled being told through his earpiece “you got to wrap it up, it’s getting kinda hectic out there.” The artist claim that he was not made aware of the situation until later.
Prior to the police report, a Harris County grand jury determined that Scott would not be criminally charged in connection with the event. The artist and Live Nation still face multiple civil suits over Astroworld, though some suits have allegedly been settled.
