At least two investigations and one civil lawsuit are underway into a deadly crush during Travis Scott's headline show in Houston.
Eight people died and dozens of others were injured at the Astroworld music festival in Texas.
The massive crowd, estimated to be around 50,000 people, moved closer to the front of the stage, when a crush began.
Footage from the event shows attendees trying to get the attention of production staff and security to make them aware that something was wrong.
“There is somebody dead.”

Chief Lt Larry Satterwhite from Houston police, who was near the front when the tragedy unfolded, said it "happened all at once".
The rapper, who was performing at the time, says he's devastated and has offered to help victims' families.

One attendee said they could hear people saying "I can't breath, I'm going to pass out."
Another said "There just wasn't enough security telling people to push back."
"We were literally pushed up against the rails and could barely breath."
In a statement, Astroworld Festival confirmed that the rest of the event has been cancelled.
It said its "hearts are with the Astroworld Festival family tonight - especially those we lost and their loved ones."
