Drake Gets Dismissed From Travis Scott’s Astroworld Lawsuit

Drake’s officially out of all Astroworld lawsuits  a judge granted a motion for summary judgment, and has dismissed all the claims against him. A  judge in Harris County, Texas heard the arguments and decided to dismiss all claims against Drake with prejudice.  Remember Drake was named as a defendant in some lawsuits following the 2021 crowd crush tragedy in Houston with plaintiffs alleging that because he took the stage with Travis Scott, they believed he helped incite the crowd into the frenzy.  Drake argued he shouldn't be sued for simply showing up to appear as a guest adding he wasn't involved in the planning, so he's not responsible for the injuries or deaths.  Legal woes stemming from Astroworld have dogged all the artists involved including Travis, who reportedly filed a similar claim to Drake's at the end of March basically saying safety measures were not his responsibility.  A judge denied Travis' request to be removed as a defendant from the suit  and for Apple, which had asked for the same thing.
