Rapper Drake has made his first public statement following the deaths of eight people at rapper Travis Scott`s Astroworld Festival on November 5. Drake took to social media and wrote: "I`ve spent the past few days trying to wrap my head around this devastating tragedy... My heart is broken for the families and friends of those who lost their lives and for anyone suffering."

As the sequence of events that led to the "mass casualty" panic of Friday night is revealed, Drake has received a fair share of criticism for going on with the show. As he took the stage towards the end of the set, emergency medical personnel were reportedly responding to multiple cases of cardiac arrest, likely from the surge of the crowd as they made their way towards the stage for Scott`s and Drake`s performance.
