Being a janitor at the Kaseya Center in downtown Miami can have its benefits.

You get to listen to some of today’s hottest music stars in one of the hottest cities on the planet as part of the gig.

There are downsides, of course. Like having to clean up after fans, many of whom are so thrilled to see their idols in the flesh that they may have slightly perspired, spilled their drink, or dropped more than just a kernel of popcorn .

On Sunday night, at Travis Scott’s local stop on his Utopia-Circus Maximus Tour, one worker got really lucky, though, TMZ first reported.

According to a video circulating social media, Scott spotted an employee hard at work and gave him a shout-out, directing someone in his entourage to give the guy some dough for his troubles.

“I want you to just take off the night ...You know what I’m saying? I’m giving 5,000 for my boy right here!” Scott yelled out to the cheering crowd. “Whoever told you to get a mop?! The only way he clocking in ... is if he can rage!!”

After the kind gesture, the “Sicko Mode” rapper hit up LIV for yet another show, performing such hits as “No Bystanders” and “FE!N.”

We reached out to the Miami Beach club to see if Scott dropped another huge tip for his server, but did not immediately hear back.
