Kid Cudi is among several celebrities who felt inspired by actor Sheryl Lee Ralph’s Emmys win earlier this week.
On Friday (September 16), Ralph’s son Etienne shared a message Cudi sent to his mother along with a fresh bouquet.
The Entergalatic star wrote a touching note that read: “Congrats Sheryl, you are a legend, and watching you and Quinta [Brunson] win was truly inspiring. Your speech was everything. Always rooting for you…Looking forward to meeting you one day.”

The message thoroughly impacted Etienne who is a big Cudi fan. “Never in my wildest dreams did I ever think one of my favorite artists of all time would be sending flowers to my mom,” he captioned the TikTok.
“I know this is about my Mom, but @KidCudi, my mother wouldn’t know who you were if I wasn’t blasting your music on my way to school in the morning or her buying tickets to see you for my high school graduation. I am your fan from DAY 1 bro bro. Thank you for showing love to moms. You are loved my g.”

In the clip, Ralph’s son and daughter begin singing Cudi’s 2008 song “Maui Wowie” from his A Kid Named Cudi mixtape while the Emmy Award-winner tells Cudi thank you.
The veteran actor won her first Emmy Award for Best Supporting Actress in a Comedy for Abbott Elementary on Monday (September 12). She’s been a Hollywood mainstay for decades with roles in the likes of Dreamgirls and Moesha alongside Brandy.
“To anyone who has ever, ever had a dream and thought your dream wasn’t, wouldn’t, couldn’t come true, I am here to tell you that this is what believing looks like,” Ralph declared during her acceptance speech. “This is what striving looks like!”
