Travis Scott, Kylie Jenner & Astroworld: When Hype Culture Turns Deadly

In this week's episode, we dive into the Astroworld tragedy. We look at the culture Travis Scott has fostered amongst his fanbase, the violent history of his concerts, and how he exploits his parasocial relationship with fans for hype. We explore the backlash around Kylie Jenner and her response to what happened and aim to answer the question: Who is to blame? Can celebrities control their stans/fanbase and should they be held responsible for when things go wrong? Will Travis recover from this? What PR strategies do we foresee? And what changes to celebrity and influencer culture need to be made to protect fans?
