Kanye to drop out of Coachella if Billie Eilish does not apologize to Travis Scott
While both Billie Eilish and Kanye West are headliners for the Coachella Festival, it seems like one of them will back out. Kanye wants his fellow headliner to apologize to Travis Scott. As per Ye’s point of view, Billie Eilish looks as if she’s referencing the disastrous Astroworld concert tour in one of her shows. Moreover, there are other headliners to the festival aside from the two.
Kanye then posted on Instagram on Thursday. He’s calling Billie Eilish out for her recent comments at a show about concert safety. Apparently, Kanye assumed the message was for his fellow rapper Travis Scott. Scott was the founder of the Astroworld Festival.
Kanye said he will not perform at Coachella Festival if Billie Eilish does not apologize to Travis Scott. He even shared screenshots of a news article about Billie “dissing” Travis Scott. The caption on the post says, “Come on Billie we love you please apologize to Travis and to the families of the people who lost their lives no one intended this to happen.”

These are Ye’s exact words when he said about not performing at Coachella Festival.“Trav didn’t have any idea of what was happening when he was on stage and was very hurt by what happened and yes Trav will be with me at Coachella but now I need Billie to apologize before I perform.”
Even if Eilish never mentioned Scott, Kanye still took to Instagram a screenshot and posted. The screenshot was from hip-hop account @RapSeaTV that says, “Billie Eilish dissed Travis Scott at her concert after she stopped the show to give her fan an inhaler! I wait for the people to be okay before I keep going.”
