Travis Scott isn’t bitter towards Cardi B for winning the Grammy for Best Rap Album, even though fans might think he was after watching his new Netflix documentary, Look Mom I Can Fly.

During the doc—which dropped on Wednesday—Scott is shown as visibly upset when Cardi won the trophy back in February. According to TMZ, people who have seen the Netflix project already believe Scott was mad at Cardi.

However, the outlet reports that Scott didn’t take it as anything personal. He was emotional because he worked really hard on Astroworld and wanted to win. Offset also came to the premiere of Look Mom I Can Fly.

Last week, after the release of the doc, Cardi took to Twitter to reflect on her win, defending herself against haters who claim she doesn’t deserve the trophy. “I wasn’t even thinking of winning or even the Grammies,” she wrote. “All I can think about was ...everybody is disappointed in me,am I still going to have a career after this baby ? Is this album going to make me or break me ? I need to finish before I start showing.”

While recording, she endured intense nausea, depression, and sickness: “I did it all while I was pregnant.Throwing up, drowsy,terrible colds and in a rush to finish it so I can start doing music videos before I started showing .I spend 24 hours for months sleeping on a couch with my pregnant depressed ass in a studio,” she wrote.
