Travis Scott splashes $100,000 cash on fandom

Travis Scott has been sharing $100,000 among his fans.

The 26-year-old rapper has celebrated the release of his latest album 'Astroworld' by treating his 3.92 million Twitter followers with random sums of money, simply for tweeting their favourite lyrics from the record and sharing their cash tag.

The 'Sicko Mode' hitmaker said he decided to splash the cash on his fandom because he knows it's "hard for the kids".

Taking to Twitter, he announced: "SO I KNOW ITS HARD FOR THE KIDS 

"SO I DECIDED TO UNLOAD MY BANK ACCOUNT ON U GUYS. IM BUSTING DOWN $100,000 AND GIVING AWAY   TO ANY FANS THAT CAN TWEET ME THERE CASH TAG WITH LYRICS FROM ASTRO. GANG !! (sic)"

Several of his followers have taken to the micro-blogging site to share the various amounts they received, ranging from anywhere between $50 to $1,000.

Within five hours of announcing the cash giveaway, Scott had spent $25,000 of his limit.

He tweeted: "OK I GOT 75K LEFT. SEND  YOUR CASH TAG AND TWEET #ASTROWORLD TO BE NEXT!! (sic)"

'Astroworld' is Travis's third studio album since 2016's LP 'Birds in the Trap Sing McKnight'.
