In his own mind, Travis Scott broke down racial barriers because he got a young white fan to use the n-word during his opening slot on Rihanna’s ANTI tour last night (April 14). T. Scott was performing in Drake-land (a.k.a. Toronto) when he coaxed the seemingly shy fan into spitting the n-word for everyone to hear.

It happened while 23-year-old Scott was performing his “3500” single, which includes the line “Only trill n*ggas I know.” When he got to that particular lyric, Scott made sure to hold the fan’s shoulder as he gently guided him into dropping the n-bomb.

Granted, the fan was merely reciting Scott’s rhymes, but the Texas rapper saw the moment as much bigger. “[You’re] my friend, I love you too motherf*cka,’” Scott said, getting somewhat emotional. “This makes me wanna cry ‘cuz you know, a lotta’ years back nobody wanted to see this happen, nobody wanted to see me and you f*cking with each other tonight in Toronto.”
