Well hey there idiots, welcome back to Observe.

In today's video we're going to be analyzing the non-verbal communication of Travis Scott during his apology for an incident

that happened here recently last Friday at a festival that Travis wasn't in charge of.

More on that in a second.

Let's go ahead and run the intro.

Rapper and producer Travis Scott was the organizer of the Astroworld Festival in Houston, Texas.

For those of you who don't know what I'm talking about or referring to here, at least eight people were killed at a festival while Travis Scott was on stage.

Roughly 50,000 people were attending the event when a massive crowd surge occurred around 9 p.m.

Central Time.

Officials stated that the crowd, for whatever reason, began to push and surge forward to the front of the stage, which caused people in front to be compressed.

They were unable to escape the situation.

Along with the fatalities, there were scores of individuals that were injured, according to the Houston Fire Chief.

Coupled with the fatalities and injuries, many people suffered the loss of consciousness, strokes, and more negative side effects.

While the investigation into what specifically caused the surge and what kept people from escaping is ongoing,

the Houston police chief stated that one security officer claimed

that he was struck in the neck during the event Friday night while attempting to restrain a concert goer.

The chief said that according to the medical staff that was present and treated him that night, that he was reaching out to restrain a citizen to grab one,

and he felt a prick in his neck.

When he was being examined, he fell unconscious.

He was then revived by the medical personnel, and they noticed a prick, a mark, in his neck, similar to what you would get if you had received an injection of sorts.

While this could have a portion to play in the tragedy itself, people are more interested in Travis Scott's behavior during a short apology that he released recently.

This brings us to this video.

He, like I said, released a brief video on Instagram addressing the catastrophe and expressing his devastation,

but people aren't so sure that they're buying it, so that's what we're going to go ahead and look at today.

Now, before we look at the actual video itself, I want to let you know I spent some time going

through some other footage to collect a rough baseline of how Travis Scott behaves non-verbally in various situations.

And from what I can understand, he emotes fairly well and fluidly with his body.

And then also, I will say that his eyes stay fairly hooded.

That has popped up regularly.

But as far as the emotive state as the rest of his face, it seems to do so rather normally if a little subdued.

Now, let's go ahead and take a look at this and we'll start breaking it down, but we'll watch all the way through it and then analyze it after that.

So let's go.

I just want to send out prayers to the to the ones that was lost last night.

We're actually working right now to identify the families so we can help assist them through this tough time.

You know my fans, my fans like, my fans really mean the world to me

and I always just really want to leave them with a positive experience

and anytime I can make out you know anything that's going on you know you know I stop the show

and you know help them get the help they need you

know um I could just never imagine the severity of the

situation we've been working closely we've been working closely with everyone

to just try to get to the bottom of this the

city of Houston HPD fire department you know everyone to you know help us help us figure this out

so if you

if you have any information um you know please just contact

your local authorities um everybody continue to just keep your prayers

i mean i'm i'm honestly just devastated and i could never imagine anything like this just happening

i'm gonna do everything i can to keep you guys updated and just keep you guys informed of what's going on.

Love you all.

Okay.

So that's the full clip itself.

Now we're gonna go back through it and start breaking it down.

Before I start breaking it down, some things that might have stuck out to you just as an understanding of the context of this specific video specific video,

it seems as though Travis is heavily altered mentally right now.

Not sure as to what he's altered on, but it does seem as though he has a substantial amount

of psychological disconnect from the moment he's in to where he's actually processing.

And this is coming out largely through his sluggish speaking.

Some of his nonverbal communication is sluggish, but then he also appears overtly tired as well with an overtly hooded gaze on top of all of that.

So that's something that I want to take into consideration is

that he could very well be on some form of substance that is altering his psychological and therefore nonverbal state.

So that's going to be taken into consideration with his baseline.

Things might be more subdued as that seems to be the characteristic of whatever is the alteration is a subduing style.

So we're going to be seeing less positive spikes more likely.

And if we do, then we'll have to keep our eye out to see if they're genuine, if they're forced, and just more or less go forward considering all of the information that we have now.

So let's go ahead and just start the entire video over here.

I just want to send out prayers to the ones that was lost last night.

All right, and right off the bat, we're going to start seeing some things pop up that are considered red flags,

and even considering the context of his possibly altered state are still considered red flags.

So he's going to start using the word just a lot, and this just word is a pleading word.

He's trying to show that above everything else, he just does this, or he's just feeling this, or he just wanted to communicate this, and it's this desperation.

It's a pleading thing.

Many people will do this even unintentionally to be able to garnish sympathy.

It shows that you're at your limits and you just want to do dot, dot, dot.

So he uses that in there regularly, but I don't think that this is something that's intentionally done on his part.

It might even be done more subconsciously.

Along with that, we're going to start seeing some very stilted and desynchronized nonverbal communication.

This massaging of the forehead up here, both in this style and this style that he has here, stays consistently throughout.

However, it's not in relation to specific emotional points like you would expect it to if it were reflecting an emotional state.

It's there regardless and at odd times.

Sprinkle the end with that, he will also start having some sighs that are in there as well.

Now, these are desynchronized both from his words and the other nonverbal communication that he does.

He'll sigh and then he'll look and then he'll speak and then he'll do this.

And what that is letting us know is

that this is somebody who is processing all of these different movements and trying to present them as if they were genuine.

AKA, this is fake.

This is a forced emotion that he's presenting right now.

Now, the question is, is that because of his altered state or is that because he genuinely doesn't feel it?

Not really able to say quite yet, but what we're seeing so far is forced.

Let's continue.

We're actually working right now to identify the families so we can help assist them through this tough time.

You know, my fans, my fans, like, my fans really mean the world.

So you can hear that he's having some difficulty even talking.

It sounds as if he's trying to, like, I don't know.

For lack of a better term, he sounds like he's tired and like he doesn't want to be doing this.

It's like the, and I don't know, you know, exasperated, I think is the word that I'm looking for.

He feels exasperated and he is displaying that quite regularly, even with that holding and forcing of the tone with the force behind the words,

releasing the sigh as well.

It's an exasperated sigh.

It's not one that's usually related to grief or sadness.

It's more related to like something along frustration or like I said, exasperation.

100

So that doesn't really fit in there.

101

But I mean, so far, everything has been completely forced.

102

So that makes sense contextually as well, that that wouldn't fit in either.

103

So let's continue.

104

I mean, and I always just really want to leave them with a positive experience.

105

And anytime I can make out, you know, anything that's going on, you know, I stop the show and, you know, help.

106

This part's bad.

107

So he starts saying that he always wants to leave his fans with a positive show.

108

And yes, he probably wants to believe that, but one, no, it's, there's always more to it than just that.

109

But that's neither here nor there.

110

We're not talking about that.

111

Where it gets more important is that where he's talking about

112

if he ever sees anything that's going on and he starts having a lot of verbal difficulty.

113

He has some you knows, some halting in there.

114

That means that something psychologically is processing extra here.

115

Otherwise, why would he be suddenly having trouble talking where he was having more ease at it earlier?

116

I won't say he was doing a great job earlier because he wasn't.

117

But at this part, it is a negative spike in his verbal pattern.

118

So he starts having these tells come up.

119

And then along with that, he has a little bit of a no shake in there

120

as well as he's speaking about seeing these things going on and that he would immediately speak up in that.

121

And then he also has a very prolonged blank.

122

Now, we have talked at length about the various meanings behind the eye blocking expression or gesture, however you want to say it.

123

So eye blocking can mean that you are separating yourself from a negative stimulant in some realm.

124

It could be an extended blink.

125

It could be actually touching your eyes.

126

It could be even hooding your eyes more so than normal.

127

Any of those could be seen as eye blocking.

128

Now, if you're watching this and you're thinking, well, I sometimes have my eyes hooded just because I'm tired

129

or I blink really long because my eyes hurt or something along those lines, you're absolutely right.

130

And that's where this gets muddy is that an eye block can mean

131

that they're forcing or they're deceiving it can mean that, but it doesn't mean it always.

132

There are so many exceptions.

133

Now, in this instance, what makes this more of an anomaly is

134

that it's sticking out oddly from the rest of his nonverbal communication around it.

135

So before that, he does maintain his eye contact kind of with the lens more or less, but he also keeps his eyes open more or less.

136

So this area is a spike in

137

that he now has shut his eyes off completely for a very extended amount of time

138

and it doesn't show up anywhere else except for here.

139

Now the question is, why does it show up around here where he's saying, I will do anything.

140

If I ever see anything going on, then I'll do anything I need to make sure it's stopped and safe and so on and so forth.

141

Why does that sort of tell come up here?

142

Well, we have to ask that question and keep it in mind and consider any other context.

143

Now there have been rumors and people have said that he really didn't have any desire to stop the show.

144

And I haven't been able to see any footage myself of the incident

145

but based off of this and seeing this here

146

that would actually make sense just based off of the non-verbal communication stuff

147

that we've seen let's continue on now let them get the

148

help they need you know um i could just never imagine

149

the severity of the situation we've been working closely we've been

150

working closely with everyone to just try to get to the

151

bottom of this city houston hbd fire department you know everyone

152

to you know help us help us figure this out so

153

if you if you have any information

154

so during this time he now is holding his eyes shut for a much longer time again

155

so we have to keep

156

that in mind with context of the earlier moment where he did display

157

that extremely long eye blink

158

so now perhaps maybe that's not as much of an anomaly since we have two

159

but this one is still centered around some pretty intense situations

160

while they're talking about who they're working with and what all is going on behind the scenes.

161

So just because we have this new one doesn't mean that this one isn't specifically centered around a trigger, but it is something that we need to look at more.

162

But something that I will note here is what people are noticing is

163

that Travis seems to be doing his best to communicate all of the emotions that this instance demands, and he's doing so poorly.

164

He's forgetting facets of it, or he's not displaying facets of it.

165

So right now he's displaying the exhaustion, the exasperation, and the frustration that might go into that, but he's not displaying any of the grief or sadness that's going into this.

166

That's where people are really turned off is that he is fully emoting, but he's not showing that he's emoting the emotions

167

that people would want to see from somebody who was responsible for such a thing.

168

So there's a there's a pretty big issue in the public side with this

169

and we're kind of seeing why that is non-verbally.

170

Let's continue watching the video.

171

Um you know please just contact your local authorities.

172

Um everybody continue to just keep your prayers.

173

I mean I'm honestly just devastated

174

and I could never imagine anything like this just this is compensating

175

so a few things actually non-verbally speaking real quick here he's regularly licking his lips

176

and this is an agitation tell this can also indicate just a dry mouth

177

which also might fall into the fact

178

that he is altered mentally in some way we don't know how that's affecting him physically as well

179

so that is something that is popping up either it's agitation

180

or it has some physical reason behind it

181

or it's a coupling of those but then along with

182

that now he starts doing some verbal packing that lets me know that he's compensating in this area.

183

He uses some words like nevers and always, and I could just never imagine anything like this happening like this.

184

And it just starts adding more and more and more to it.

185

And that makes it less sincere because he's now compensating in this area.

186

And so that it's not really a hard, fast rule.

187

I just don't see that as more convincing in that area, but we'll continue watching it.

188

And And then we'll kind of talk at the very, very end.

189

Happening.

190

I'm going to do everything I can to keep you guys updated.

191

Just keep you guys informed of what's going on.

192

Love you all.

193

Okay.

194

Love you all.

195

A little contempt there at the very, very end.

196

That's just his polite way of signing off.

197

So the apology.

198

Indeed.

199

I don't...

200

Hmm.

201

This was pretty brief, right?

202

This is a short video.

203

So let's look at just what we saw non-verbally speaking, then we'll talk about the opinion side of things.

204

So throughout it, we saw a characterization non-verbally of just subdued body language, and this is probably done through an alteration of a psychology, likely through substance.

205

that's just my kind of conclusion here.

206

I'm not sure about that.

207

I mean, I don't, I haven't had any blood work from him or anything like that, so this is just me looking at him.

208

But then considering that context and seeing what spikes we saw from there

209

and which ones we didn't see and just making sure that we've looked at all of the information,

210

it seems as though he was emoting in negative ways towards the incident itself,

211

but not in the realms of grief or sadness, which is what people would hope to see but more so in the frustration or exhaustion side of things.

212

From what I can understand, he's not displaying sadness overtly but more so frustration.

213

And while this isn't enough to say that he's not feeling sad or he's not feeling sorry, I can say that at this point while he's releasing this video,

214

sadness and grief are not at the top of his priority list emotionally.

215

It's frustration, exasperation, and then also just trying to maintain a sense of being human while being altered as he is here.

216

So that's what we're seeing here.

217

That's why you're so frustrated by this

218

and yes this this apology does not hold any light to the atrocity that happened there.

219

That's terrible.

220

That's really really terrible to have that sort of thing happen.

221

Everybody rags on things like TanaCon for being really hot and

222

that was terrible as well and people went to the hospital

223

but to have eight deaths at least eight deaths and numerous others injured and it's terrible and this response doesn't cut it.

224

So take this or leave it as you will.

225

I hope you enjoyed this.

226

I hope you enjoyed the breaking down of the nonverbal communication.

227

In an instance like this, if you see somebody who is trying to manipulate you, it could come out in areas like desynchronization if they're trying to show that they're super sad,

228

but you notice and it feels off

229

because say they're they're gesturing differently than their words or their breathing isn't falling in line and it feels desynchronized.

230

Just keep your eye out.

231

Make sure that you're not being manipulated by somebody or somebody's trying to pull the wool over your eyes.

232

That's all that I'm going to go ahead and have for the day.

233

My name is Logan and you have been oh

234

so awesome as you always are and I will see you in the next video.

235

Cheers guys!

FOR YOU

この動画で身につけるスピーキングスキル

このビデオの会話を通じて、自然な口語表現のリズムや感情を込めた発音の抑揚、さらには日常的な会話でのポーズの使い方を学ぶことができます。特に、Travis Scottの謝罪の中で使われている「you know」のようなフィラーワードの使い方は、英語の会話をより自然に聞こえるようにするコツです。

聞き取りに注意する音のつながり

動画の中では、いくつかの連結音や縮約形が見られます。例えば、「I just want to」は「I just wanna」と発音され、「we're actually」は「we're act'ly」となっています。また、「help assist them」の部分では「help 'ssist them」と音がつながっています。これらの音のつながりを覚えることで、英語の聴解力と発音力が向上します。

ネイティブのように話すコツ

Travis Scottの発言のリズムとストレスを真似ることで、より自然な英語を話すことができます。彼の話し方の特徴は、重要な単語（例えば「prayers」「devastated」）を強調し、その他の単語を軽く流すことです。また、感情を表すときには声のトーンが下がり、ポーズを入れることで、より真実味のある発言になります。これらのポイントを意識して「shadowspeaks」や「英語シャドーイング」の練習をすると、IELTSスピーキング対策にも役立ちます。YouTubeで英語学習をする際は、このような実際の会話を使ったシャドーイングサイトを利用すると効果的です。

シャドーイングとは？英語上達に効果的な理由

シャドーイング（Shadowing）は、もともとプロの通訳者養成プログラムで開発された言語学習法で、多言語習得者として知られるDr. Alexander Arguelles によって広く普及されました。方法はシンプルですが非常に効果的：ネイティブスピーカーの英語を聞きながら、1〜2秒の遅延で声に出してすぐに繰り返す——まるで「影（shadow）」のように話者を追いかけます。文法ドリルや受動的なリスニングと異なり、シャドーイングは脳と口の筋肉が同時にリアルタイムで英語を処理・再現することを強制します。研究により、発音精度、抑揚、リズム、連音、リスニング力、そして会話の流暢さが大幅に向上することが確認されています。IELTSスピーキング対策や自然な英語コミュニケーションを目指す方に特におすすめです。
