"Billie Eilish dissed Travis Scott at her concert after she stopped the show to give her fan an inhaler! ‘I wait for the people to be okay before I keep going,'" read the post.
Coming out strongly to defend Travis, Kanye wrote, "Come on Billie we love you. Please apologize to Trav and to the families of the people who lost their lives. No one intended this to happen."
He added, "Trav didn’t have any idea of what was happening when he was on stage and was very hurt by what happened, and yes Trav will be with me at Coachella, but now I need Billie to apologize before I perform."
Responding to the rapper's post, Eilish denied that her comments were aimed at Scott. She wrote in the comment section, "literally never said a thing about Travis. was just helping a fan."
Both Eilish and West are scheduled to headline with the Coachella festival in April.
Scott was originally booked as a headliner but was removed following the controversy that erupted over the Astroworld tragedy, which left 10 dead including 2 children and hundreds of others injured.
Scott is currently facing an estimated 1 Billion in lawsuits.
