If Travis Scott had a dollar for every time he ignored police orders, he’d be rich enough to buy a yacht—or, you know, maybe just stay out of trouble.
Last Thursday, our favorite rapper was caught in a nautical nightmare in Miami Beach. He was nabbed for misdemeanor trespassing and public intoxication after being accused of, well, yelling at folks on a yacht and giving the police a hard time.
Now, sources are spilling the tea to TMZ, revealing that Travis could’ve sidestepped the slammer if he had just listened to the cops and stayed away from the marina. But no, Travis had to go back to retrieve his precious belongings, leading to a series of unfortunate events.
At 1 am, the police were called to the scene of the ship-shouting showdown. They found Travis passionately performing a one-man concert, yelling at people on the dock. Despite the cops’ repeated requests to zip it, Travis continued his verbal rampage.
The guy who called the cops didn’t want to press charges—bless his heart—so Travis was initially free to go. But our yacht yeller just couldn’t let it go. He kept hurling obscenities at everyone within earshot, proving that sometimes, silence really is golden.
When the officers asked if Travis had been drinking, he delivered the ultimate Miami excuse: “It’s Miami.”
Travis’ attorney, Bradford Cohen, tried to calm the storm, stating that his client was merely “detained due to a misunderstanding.” He assured everyone that there was no physical altercation and thanked the authorities for resolving the situation quickly and amicably. Because nothing says “amicable” like a 1 am yelling match on a yacht, right?
And so, the legend of Travis Scott, the Yacht Yeller, was born—another tale of celebrity misadventure on the high seas.
