Travis Scott’s team has released a new statement Thursday asking family members of those impacted by the Astroworld tragedy to email the rapper directly.

“Over the last week, Travis Scott and his team have been actively exploring routes of connection with each and every family affected by the tragedy through the appropriate liaisons,” the rapper and his team said. “He is distraught by the situation and desperately wishes to share his condolences and provide aid to them as soon as possible, but wants to remain respectful of each family’s wishes on how they’d best like to be connected.”
