In the intermission of Monday's College Football Playoff national championship, Travis Scott put on a brief performance. 

With Ohio State leading Notre Dame at halftime, Scott was the center of attention on ESPN's broadcast as he performed his new song "4x4."

It was unclear to some fans whether Scott's performance was truly live from Atlanta though, as the scene for his show was on the roof of Mercedes-Benz Stadium.

Here's what to know about whether Scott's performance was live or not, plus the top reactions from social media to the brief concert during the national championship.

Some of the features of the performance, like Scott seemingly being on top of Mercedez-Benz Stadium while the game was at the break and the music-video-like camera work, indicated that it was recorded ahead of time to be broadcast on ESPN. 

Although entertaining and unique, Scott's halftime show wasn't live for fans who attended Monday's Ohio State vs. Notre Dame matchup.
