Kid Cudi has always shown serious love for his fans, and he recently made one young fan’s day a whole lot better when he decided to pick up the phone and give him a call.

The Cleveland rapper had gotten in touch with the fan’s mother on Twitter to ask for their number, and the fan’s reaction was priceless as his mom captured the moment he called him up. The boy was both shocked and grinning cheek to cheek.

“So great talkin w u Jackson! Cant wait to meet u lil man” Cudi wrote on Twitter, to which the fan’s mom replied: “Thank you for making his night!”
