Rapper Travis Scott socked a sound engineer in the face and damaged $12,000 worth of equipment at a Midtown club early Wednesday, authorities and police sources said. 

The 31-year-old rapper – who has not been arrested and remains at large – punched the 52-year-old man during a dispute inside club Nebula on West 41st Street near Broadway around 2 a.m., according to police and the sources. 

He also damaged an audio speaker and a video screen, worth about $12,000, cops said.

“Travis came in angry and intoxicated and progressively went postal,” a source said. “His shirt said ‘Back the f–k up.’ It’s like he was poised for battle. It was foreshadowing.”

The ordeal unfolded as rapper Don Toliver, who is signed to Scott’s label, was performing at the club, sources said.

The pair had earlier performed on stage together during Toliver’s show at Irving Plaza Tuesday night, according to other videos posted online.

At the after party, footage obtained by Page Six shows Scott seemingly pushing the DJ and shouting “back the f–k up” after the rapper got behind the decks.

One source claimed Scott erupted after the soundman lowered the speaker volume because “Travis had it all the way blasting and distorted.”

“Travis then walks over to the soundman yelling aggressively in his face on why he lowered the sound, then he smacks the soundman right across the face,” the source alleged, adding it caused a “big commotion” between Scott’s security and club personnel.

“He was upset about the sound. He punched one of the speakers and dented it, that’s how hard it was,” another source said of Scott’s alleged outburst.

The source said Scott then took a fan’s phone who had been recording the show and threw it to the ground.

The “Sicko Mode” rapper allegedly fled west on West 41st Street in an unknown vehicle in the aftermath.

A source close to Scott insisted the ordeal was a misunderstanding and said the rapper and his team were working with cops to sort it out.

Scott’s lawyer, Mitchell Schuster, said in a statement Wednesday afternoon that he was “confident our client will be cleared of any wrongdoing.”

“While this is clearly a misunderstanding being blown out of proportion by clickbait and misinformation, we are actively working with the venue and law enforcement to resolve and set the record straight,” Schuster said.

Nebula’s managing partner, Richie Romero, and Dorian Harrington, the talent booker who booked Toliver to host his after party at the club, echoed that argument.

“This is blown completely out of proportion. It was a great night,” Romero said in a statement.

The talent booker added: “This is a total misunderstanding, and what I saw on stage doesn’t reflect what I read in the news. The music and the night turned out great and everyone left peacefully.”

The victim, who appeared to be home but didn’t answer the door to The Post on Wednesday, didn’t complain of pain or have any visible injuries, cops said. 

Scott’s alleged club antics unfolded just days before he’s scheduled to be among the headliners at the Rolling Loud hip-hop festival in Los Angeles this Saturday.

He has history of whipping fans into a frenzy and has faced charges — in 2015 and 2017 — for urging concertgoers to rush stages in Chicago and Arkansas.

The most high-profile incident to unfold at one of Scott’s gigs was the infamous 2021 Astroworld festival stampede in Houston, Texas, that left 10 dead and hundreds more injured.

The rapper, born Jacques Bermon Webster II, began dating Kylie Jenner in 2017 when they were spotted getting cozy at Coachella.

They have two children in common, Aire, 1, and Stormi, 5.

The pair are reportedly no longer together.
