T-Pain Let Travis Scott Do His Thing!!! ... Headlining Festival Can Help Prove Himself

T-Pain says Travis Scott is right to get back to doing what he does best ... and his first headline spot at the Primavera Sound festival is definitely the place to rebrand his career.

We got T-Pain Wednesday at LAX ... and he thinks Travis needed a venue like Primavera to prove himself.

He makes an interesting point ... a time-out for the sake of it isn't particularly useful. As he says, plenty of folks get locked up and when they're released they commit the same crime again.

T-Pain's got no doubt Travis will be taking steps to keep the crowd safe.

The crowd will be a lot bigger than Astroworld -- upwards of 200,000 people have attended the South American festival in the past, while Houston officials estimated 50K went to Travis' fatal concert in November.

Our sources say this gig is just one of many TS has on the horizon and he'll be announcing 3 U.S. festival performances soon.

Aside from festivals, Travis is set to host his first public performance Astroworld tragedy, at hotspot E11EVEN in May, where he'll perform during Race Week. There's a Formula One Grand Prix that'll be going down around the same time so demand's gonna be high --it's almost sold out.
