Tyler the Creator arrested for allegedly inciting riot

Tyler

Tyler the Creator was arrested on Saturday over claims that he incited a riot at the SXSW festival. The rapper was released on bond that same day, flying to Dallas to play a sold-out concert.
According to Travis county police, Tyler provoked the crowd during his daytime gig at Austin’s Scoot Inn. Attendance at the show had been capped at 999 people, with barriers and security limiting further entrance to the venue. Tyler reportedly called on fans to push their way inside: a video released by local officials appears to show the 23-year-old at a microphone, shouting, “Just run in right now ... Do it! ... Push! Push! Push!”
This article basically states how Tyler The creator has started a riot at his concert. At most concerts where Tyler or Odd future have taken the stage they ofen are known for their insane crowds and inflicting moshpits in the audience. However this is also not his first time for getting into trouble as he has previously also inflicted riots at carnivals and shows. Maybe he might be banned from performing in a few years time? But as for yet he still remains an eccentric performer that claims the audience love the experience.
