Rapper Travis Scott was arrested by Miami Beach police early Thursday on misdemeanor charges of trespassing and public intoxication. Miami Beach police confirmed the arrest but provided no further details.

Scott, 33, posted a USD 650 bond and is set to be released later Thursday, according to Miami-Dade County jail records.

Publicists Jamie Sward and Alexandra Baker, and his agent David Stromberg, have yet to respond to requests for comment. Scott, one of hip-hop's biggest names, has over 100 songs on the Billboard Hot 100 and four number-one singles: "Sicko Mode," "Highest in the Room," "The Scotts," and "Franchise."

Scott's 2021 Astroworld Festival in Houston saw a fatal crowd surge that killed ten people, aged 9 to 27, from compression asphyxia. Lawsuits allege the deaths were due to negligent planning and safety concerns.

Scott and promoter Live Nation denied these claims, asserting that safety was a priority. A grand jury investigation concluded without indictments.
