Famous rapper Travis Scott was reportedly involved in a brawl with Alexander ‘A.E.’ Edwards at the Cannes afterparty on
Thursday.

Early reports suggest that the physical altercation involved rapper Tyga, although the footage obtained by Variety, it seems that the person wasn’t Tyga but Edwards. He is the legendary Cher’s boyfriend and Tyga’s friend.

Travis Scott was reportedly being more dominant and throwing way more punches than Edwards.

When Edward tried to calm the situation down, sources close to the situation reported that Scott called Southside, an American record producer, was also pushing Edwards, which is possibly why the fight between Scott and Edwards got so heated.

“Models were flying everywhere in the melee,” a source told an entertainment portal. “Someone got hit with an ice bucket.”

According to Variety, Tyga was also present at the afterparty but did not get involved in the fight. Tyga and Edwards were at the party till early morning and no one was seriously injured.

“Travis was the aggressor. He and his team were being neurotic, erratic and crazy. He was there looking for a fight with anyone to be honest,” a source claims.

Scott and Tyga both dated Kylie Jenner in the past but a source revealed that that was not the cause of this altercation.

“The history is there but it’s not like that’s necessarily what was the cause of this fight,” an insider claimed.

Reportedly, Scott got really enraged and yelled at Tyga’s security saying, “Y’all [N-word] wanna die?”

Travis Scott has been a part of a physical altercation before as well. He was accused of assaulting a 52 year old man at a New York nightclub where Don Oliver was hosting an afterparty.

“The victim was punched in the face and there was subsequent damage to an audio speaker and a video screen causing about $12,000 in damages,” officers from the NYPD said at the time.
