Travis Scott has been sued for cancelling a concert two days following the birth of his daughter with Kylie Jenner, Stormi Webster.

According to promoter PJAM, the rapper was allegedly paid an advance of $150,000 to play a Super Bowl Weekend party at Myth Live nightclub in Minnesota on February 3.

Just two days before the event, Scott's daughter was born, and Jenner announced Stormi's birth the day of the Super Bowl on February 4.

In the document obtained by The Blast on Wednesday, PJAM claims that Scott "advised" the promoter that "despite his contractual obligations, he refused to show up for the event."

PJAM discussed the cancellation and losses in the lawsuit, saying: "As a result of this breach, [PJAM] suffered significant damages including the sums paid to XX Global [the legal agent and representative of Scott] and [Scott] and their booking agent, the sums paid to arrange Webster’s travel, the sum’s paid to advertise the event, lease the venue and hire staff, and the lost profits [PJAM] would have realised on this event."

Additionally the group claims that Scott's agent was paid a $10,000 booking fee and had scheduled a private jet to fly the rapper to the venue.

The organisation also added that it spent "significant sums" to "advertise the event, lease a large entertainment venue and to hire a staff of waiters, bartenders and other assistants for the night."

PJAM also claimed that Scott's failure to perform resulted in "significant damages" and "reputational harm."

The rapper is currently scheduled to headline Governors Ball in New York City on June 2.

Scott has not yet commented on the lawsuit.
