The unexpected prison release of embattled comedian Bill Cosby earlier this week has stirred up some intense emotions. The 83-year-old, who was convicted in 2018 of drugging and sexually assaulting former Temple University employee Andrea Constand over 17 years ago, was released on Wednesday (June 30) after Pennsylvania’s highest court found an agreement with a previous prosecutor prevented him from being charged in the case.
While Boosie Badazz celebrated Cosby’s newfound freedom and Timbaland made a poorly-received Instagram joke, Kid Cudi deemed anyone supporting the new development is lacking in intelligence.
Shortly after the news broke, Cudi tweeted, “People that are celebrating Bill Cosby being released are fuckin idiots.”
Timbaland wasn’t the only celebrity feeling the heat on social media. Comedian Lil Duval also appeared excited about Cosby’s return, tweeting, “Bill Cosby about to be free!” City boy win summer 2021!” While many of Duval’s fans laughed at the longstanding “City Boy” joke, J.I.D slammed Duval in a since-deleted tweet.
“I ain’t surprised u this lame [side eye angry face],” he wrote.
Bill Cosby had previously vowed to serve all 10 years rather than acknowledge any remorse over the alleged interaction with Constand. Cosby was charged in late 2015 when a prosecutor armed with newly unsealed evidence arrested him just days before the 12-year statute of limitations expired.

2021 marked the first year Cosby was eligible for parole under the three- to 10-year sentence handed down after his 2018 conviction. Cosby spokesperson Andrew Wyatt called the parole board decision “appalling.”
Prosecutors said Cosby repeatedly used his fame and “family man” persona to manipulate young women, holding himself out as a mentor before taking advantage of him.
does whoopi goldberg still throw him under the bus a second time.
People done less for murder or just as much time for robbing 250 million jordan belfort. He did his time not his fault u cant self inciminate self under false pretense. Americans of generation whatever are the dumbest woke people ever want to cancel everyone without realizing aye ninjas yall got freedom of choice change to station the movie or dont buy the book u got power of free will if less ppl buy less money made common sense right. Then add in this entitlement give me attitude without working hard. Want laws to comform to yoi instead of following law like most people. Major division and laziness at home while getting ovetaken by china international stage. America is in real decline. Add in worship of false idols celebs presididente items ect worrying more bout other folks what they doing how much they have instead of worrying bout self. If did such maybe you can make yourseld great (again lol)
These two weird dudes are allowed to have opinions too. Was not expecting everyone to be happy for Bill anyway. @ 83 yrs old he was willing to do all of his time 10 yrs. Take a good look in the mirror before judging others. There is only one JUDGE and he sits high and looks low.
I still don’t understand why he went to prison in the first place. If you take a pill from someone and then something sexually occurs, you don’t know if you consented or not, then you feel as if you were taken advantage of is crazy. When do “victims” learn to accept responsibility for their actions. If he had taken a pill and she asked him for some money and he gave it to her then later decided that he shouldn’t have, could he have her arrested for robbery?
Giving pills to people in order to take advantage of them is wrong. Period. It’s not freedom, it’s not cool because rappers say it is, it’s not cool if it’s a black or a white person doing it.
You sound like your homie passed you a laced blunt, you knocked out, he took that cooter for a test drive, and you liked it. Lol youre a special kind of stupid if you think thats acceptable.
People wanna say he should still be in jail but don’t admit fact the lady lied . She told money with agreement she wouldn’t seek charges on allegations that DA couldn’t prove. She got paid by recording conversations with Cosby where he admitted they had encounter.,I’m not saying he’s innocent I’m saying the matter was resolved when he paid her off and to bring up couple days before statue expire was shady .. but just like emmitt till whenever a white woman say black man hurt her we wanna throw him in jail.. he had day in court hung jury then new judge prejudice new jury with allowing allegations not proven into testimony .. so DA knew it would be overturned, he did this to win his election as State attorney but nobody wanna look at that though .. if bill Cosby should do time for putting something in her drink then the catholic priest should get death penalty for molesting children , yet not one of them went to prison after they paid out money .. people are sick with hypocrisyitis
You’re essentially saying that it’s OK to abuse people sexually, as long as you pay them off. Y’all got fuxxed up mentality man, everything black vs white, even when blacks do wrong.
Nobody knows one way or the other what went down with Cosby and that woman. Only thing we can say for sure is that the lawyers handling this case screwed up royally and these are the results. You always here people yelling about Justice Reform and the dishonest legal system, well, if you really believe in those causes than you have to support them even when it helps someone you don’t like. Fact is the system made him a promise not to use his words against him, and went back on their word. That’s a violation of his rights. He deserves to walk free and I wouldn’t be surprised if he hits them with a massive lawsuit on top of it.
“Nobody knows one way or the other what went down with Cosby and that woman.” Dude literally confessed to drugging and raping women. He got out a technicality—doesn’t make him any less of scumbag.
This article should be retitled “Rappers Have Opinions On Non-Rap Topics” so that people won’t be tricked into reading it.
I’m sure this dude has done far more worst than Bill!! Yeah, keep yo crap in the closet.. Throwing stones!! Some blacks folks kill me doggin yo people out for clout..SMH!!
Yeah how dare someone black call out another black person for being wrong … the nerve … you can’t even stop killing each other but you worry about what someone else correctly says … you are in the simplest terms … a fuckboy
But he clearly wasn’t wrong, numb nuts
we have enough problems as it is without folks looking to pull down others when we know it’s been a set up. do you think you are proving some big point saying black people also do wrong things? that is pretty obvious as we are all human
But what I can say is, black folks ain’t buying education to get ahead, blowing up kids in schools, shooting/killing unarmed people of color because of hatred!! Quick to point out blacks but dare to look in the mirror at yourself.. gtfoh with your bulls*it!!!
He not my people. Skin color be d@mned. He rich and famous. Thats his race
Its crazy how most people care more about color, than the rapist ish that person does. Talk about wanting equality and stopping racism, while being a racist and demoralizing another for not agreeing with you.
Maybe if y’all weren’t so fast to support his jailing , thus not allowing due process , he wouldn’t be getting out now. We should throw Kid Cudi and JID in jail on some heresay and see how they feel.
The only thing HipHop bout Cosby is….fuck all
is it true cosby would be rather violent and abusive with the cast of children on the cosby show. i mean abuse them physically so they would be scared straight and act much better because of it.
he’s obviously with “them,” wearing dresses and sh•t
Cudi the first to cry like the bih he is. These so called woke mfs think a black man dumb. We know you took the payoff however many ways you could. We been took the fall so many years lol this dude feels like we need another loss before we learn
Cudi, how about the multiple celebrities you could’ve called out even prior to Cosby’s case? Oh yeah you’re a smart woke black entertainer who is only allowed to dissect the lives of other blacks. Cool. Go put your dress back on and dance for zaddy.
Bill Cosby was only investigated, charged and convicted when he made moves to purchase NBC.
Bill Cosby has also essentially admitted to committing acts like he was convicted for, and as such is a creep.
Facts do not exist in vacuums. People need to think critically.
So Kid Cudi is a feminist. Good for him. Im not one. The technology to prove his guilt or innocence 20 years later doesnt exist. So basically we were taking a womans word and running with it based on emotions and culture change. She should have spoke 20 years ago instead of starting this shit show.
You mean 60 women. 60! This aren’t regular women off the street.
meh we da people ain’t buying this mess Cudi is speaking. innocent is innocent no matter how these hurt dogs try to spin it
Cosby wasn’t innocent, he got out on a technicality… Congrats to him but.
do you know about white flight?
Stick to wearing dresses Bruh and Man on the Moon 3 sucked donkey balls, the first 2 was dope thought cant lie on that
I’m surprised HipHop isn’t giving Bill a pass considering the fact he isn’t white
