Jermaine Dupri has spoken out about Travis Scott‘s recent incident involving a fan rushing the stage in the middle of a performance.
In a now-deleted post he made on Twitter, which was captured by Hollywood Unlocked on Friday (November 24), the super-producer expressed his concern about the safety of both Cactus Jack and the fan himself.

“I just saw a kid jump onstage with Travis [mind blown emoji],” he wrote. “Do y’all know how dangerous that is? Like! What is security doing to allow this? And then once they see him, they wanna rough him up — it’s too late at that point, SMH.”
Check out the post below.
The incident in question happened on Tuesday (November 21) at the Austin stop of Travis’ Circus Maximus tour.
A fan who’s clearly ready to rage can be seen running through the elaborate stage setup.

At first, Travis grabs him by the shirt collar and looks like he is going to get him out of dodge immediately. But once security comes running, Cactus Jack actually wavs them off and instead decides to rage alongside the excited fan.
The kid concluded his time on stage – by the end of which he was shirtless – by diving into the crowd.

JD and fellow producer and Atlanta music pioneer Dallas Austin became two of the seven honorees to receive the Crown Jewel of Excellence from Atlanta’s Black Music & Entertainment Walk of Fame last month.
Lil Wayne, Queen Latifah, Magic Johnson, gospel singer Marvin Sapp, and the late gospel pioneer Mahalia Jackson were all bestowed the same honor along with the two celebrated ATLiens.
Dupri and Austin both shared moments from the induction ceremony on social media.
“Man!! I just got inducted into the @blackwalkoffame and it feels amazing !! A lady on the red carpet asked me does this mean Atlanta is the new hollywood ? No! This is Atlanta this is Black music and Black entertainment,” wrote Dupri on X.
