Travis Scott and DJ Paul Settle Lawsuit

Travis Scott has reached a lawsuit with Three 6 Mafia‘s DJ Paul.

While there hasn’t been an official word about a dollar amount. Court documents that were obtained by Complex and first reported by The Blast state that both parties have agreed to a “tentative settlement.”

The documents also detail that an additional 30 days is required for Scott and Paul to sign the settlement papers, and at that point it is assumed that the monetary amount would be solidified by both parties, and the case will be officially closed.

The news of the lawsuit broke back in April when DJ Paul said that the chorus of Astroworld‘s “No Bystanders,” and the hook of this track bears resemblance to Three 6 Mafia’s 1995 track “Tear da Club Up” and the 1997 rendition of the song, “Tear da Club Up ’97.”

This left DJ Paul who wrote the chorus—to file a $20 million lawsuit against Scott.

Despite the numbers Paul told Complex in an interview that he had no ill feelings towards Scott, and that the lawsuit was a business move. 

“Travis Scott and I have been in touch personally about this matter, he is aware of the situation, as is his label. Everything will be worked out accordingly with proper communication between he, Juicy J, and I,” Paul said in a statement. “There is no beef, just business.”
