US rapper Travis Scott angered fans in Istanbul after a performance that barely lasted 20 minutes, with the audience booing as he left the stage early on Monday, footage on social media showed.
On his first tour of Turkey, the 35-year-old hip-hop star made his Istanbul debut late on Sunday and was to hold another event in the western Izmir resort on Monday.
The Istanbul event was billed as “a performance that goes beyond a classic concert” with a limited audience of just 2,500 fans, according to one of the websites selling tickets, which started at US$330.

The advertising blurb promised a 90-minute “DJ set & mic” by the Houston-born rapper starting at 11pm local time in between performances by lesser-known artists.

“Shameful event. They said he would start at 11:00 pm, he arrived at 00:35. We waited for hours standing up, he performed one song then left. We wasted our money,” wrote a fan called Ala Artan on Instagram.
