Even after the dozens of lawsuits and if he avoids other any potential legal action, which I doubt, I don't see how any artist - regardless of wealth - would be able to have a career after all of this. Unlike how Limp Bizkit were unscathed by the events of Woodstock 99 (a mess caused by the organisers), Scott's direct responsibility with continuing the show despite audience distress makes it a very real possibility of not coming back from.

No. Especially if Utopia ends up being great/on par with his other albums.

Hopefully, but probably not

Nah, I can't see it.
Now, had there been negligence on the part of a female artist... Yes, absolutely.

Astroworld, the name of his biggest album and a massive part of his brand, is now forever linked to a horrible and preventable tragedy that Scott shares direct culpability for. Can't forget this will also have (lesser) ramifications on Drake, easily the biggest artist in music atm and whose appearance on "Sicko Mode" helped produce Scott's first #1 single. I won't be surprised if Drake does everything he can to distance himself from Scott and try to minimize his complicity with this event, and I also won't be surprised if other artists take that lead and consider Scott radioactive for at least the near future. No more McDonald's deals for Scott, probably no venues willing to take out the liability of having him perform there for a few years, and the rollout for his new album Utopia will now need to go back to the drawing board if it even gets released before all the legal issues get well underway. I won't rule out his career making some kind of recovery after this, but I think we're talking years down the line and him never being back at the same status again.

Tame Impala took out Skeletons from his tour playlist. Might be a sign of things to come. Question is though if he did that without consulting with Travis beforehand.

This is a tricky question. Short of murder/rape convictions, it's not really impossible to come back from a very negative situation. Chris Brown after the Rihanna incident bounced back quite strongly with F.A.M.E in 2011, and has been successful to this day albeit still a figure with much contempt directed his way by more woke crowds and not being the more universally liked figure he was circa 2007-2008. I don't really know if Travis has an album that good in him, though.

No, I don't think so. It will probably turn out like that Cincinnati concert was for the Who with lots of lawsuits and special memorials.
