Travis Scott will not perform at Day N Vegas this Saturday, Variety reports, with sources close to the rapper describing him as "too distraught to play." Scott has also said he'll be providing a full refund to anyone who purchased a ticket to Astroworld last weekend, where a crowd surge killed eight and injured dozens more during the rapper's set.

In the days since the event, Scott has been criticized for the safety protocols at the festival, which he organized, and for continuing his set after the surge. At least two separate lawsuits have been filed against Scott and the festival's promoters, Live Nation and ScoreMore.

In a public statement Friday, Scott said he was "absolutely devastated by what took place," and that the Houston Police Department will have his "full support" as they investigate the tragedy.
