Ezra Blout’s Parent’s Decline Travis Scott’s Financial Help

The official letter from the family attorney noted that Travis’ offer to pay all funeral expenses would “have no effect on Mr. Blount’s lawsuit.”

“Your client’s offer is declined. I have no doubt Mr. Scott feels remorse. His journey ahead will be painful. He must face and hopefully see that he bears some of the responsibility for this tragedy,” Blount family attorney Robert C. Hilliard wrote in a letter obtained by Rolling Stone. 

Ezra, who lived in Dallas, was the 10th person to die after being injured in the stampede while headliner Scott performed on the first night of the Astroworld music festival in Houston on Nov. 5. The second night was canceled, and Scott offered to refund all ticket fees. Besides the offer to pay funeral costs and reimburse all ticket sales, Travis Scott also offered Astroworld festival-goers a month of free online therapy after the traumatic tragedy.  The embattled rapper teamed up with the company BetterHelp, but some of the 50,000 fans in attendance rejected the offer for help.
