Travis Scott has another reason to be grateful for the success of Astroworld and it's not because of any Billboard accomplishment or accolade. According to TMZ, the rapper's tour is keeping him as far away as possible from the Kardashian-Jenner household amid the Jordyn Woods scandal. The rapper touches down in Buffalo tonight, keeping him miles and miles away from the Calabasas controversy.

Apparently, the family has "declared war" on Tristan Thompson for hooking up with Jordyn while they've urged Kylie to cut ties with her best friend. She's agreed but everyone thinks she's truly indecisive of her decision because of her tightknit relationship with Jordyn.

While Travis Scott might be appreciating the tour life now more than ever, he has been trying to hold does his lady throughout it all and lending her an ear whenever she needs someone to listen. However, he doesn't really have any sides to choose from so ultimately, he's going along with whatever Kylie's decision is.

While he's been distancing himself from the Kardashians in California, he was recently honored with the key to the city of Houston, Texas earlier this month. The mayor of the city presented the key to Scott on stage and revealed that they'll be building a new amusement park due to the enthusiasm he brought with Astroworld.

"We owe so much to this guy for keeping Houston on the map," the Mayor said about Travis. "With 'Astroworld,' man, and those of us that remember Astroworld, and because of him, we're gonna bring another amusement theme park back to the city. This city loves you."
