The rapper, 30, is said to have called for ambulances and paused during his performance in Houston on Friday night after seeing his fans in trouble.

That's according to one concert goer who told The Sun the Antidote star told organizers to "hurry up" with their help.

They added: "They never really stopped the music. But Travis Scott did take pauses during his performance.

“He would ask what’s going on and to call for ambulances. He was pushing organizers to react shouting ‘Hurry up let’s go, let’s go!’

"But he couldn’t control that kind of situation."

The fan - who wished to remain anonymous - said they had attended the event with with eight who all "made it out safe."

But they added: "People were passing out and dying of dehydration and the security guards told us: ‘We can’t let you out unless you are passed out.’"

The fan said: "I helped carry people since the security guards were not much use.

"The smaller individuals, under 5ft 4 were like struggling for air. Children were being trampled. I saw a young female snap her ankle."

Eight people died at the concert in Houston, Texas on Friday with victims aged between 14 and 27.

'OUT OF HAND'

The fan added: "Imagine thousands of people pushing you forward.

"Water was not given out and only available for $5.

"Over 50,000 people and only about 300 security guards. I’ve never been to a concert this chaotic.

"It’s the city’s fault, not the rapper.

"I knew it was gonna get out of hand and so did my friends and we knew not to separate each other."

Reality star Washington Ho from House of Ho had already told The Sun security checks made the crowd "anxious and angry" before the fatal stampede.
