Kid Cudi took to Twitter today to establish his dominance in the game, specifically over Kanye West, Drake and “the fake ones.” The Cleveland artist expressed his frustration with rappers who reach mainstream success while having teams of songwriters behind them, contrasting himself as someone who has true creativity.
“I am the culture,” he says in a series of posts. “I keep silent because I dont ever wanna come off like some angry hater, but today, not only do I feel fantastic, Im feelin like taking over I already have My tweets apply to who they apply. Ye, Drake, whoever. These niggas dont give a fuck about me. And they aint fuckin with me. Niggas keep you close when they see how powerful you are by yourself. When they see your greatness. Out of fear.”
The former G.O.O.D. Music artist says that he has stayed quiet long enough and is now ready to take the reins. Cudi is preparing to release a double-disc album — one of two he’s announced this year — and says that he will let the music do the talking.
“Ive been loyal to those who haven’t been to me and that ends now,” he continues. “Now im your threat. Anybody got a issue with my words im glad. If you feel me, dont be scared to use your voice. I was for so long out of blind loyalty. From here Ill let the music speak. As you were, peace and love to my supporters and true ones. Cudder Out.”
Cudi appeared twice on West’s The Life of Pablo, “Father, Stretch My Hands Pt. 1” and “Waves.” He also assisted Yeezy on the My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy cut “All of the Lights.”
The Speedin Bullet 2 Heaven musician is not the only one to put ‘Ye on blast. Last year, Cyhi Da Prynce called out the G.O.O.D. Music boss on “Elephant in the Room.” He later said it wasn’t a diss, but still…

Drake dont want them Cuddi problems
Cudi is very dope, but he’s also delusional if he thinks the people will turn on Drake and/or this new n***a LA Yeezy for him. But time tells it all…
Oh please Spare me ..the 6God is outa reach , many have tried .Besides Kendrick the only rapper that with enough skill and enough fan base ,and really has nothing loose by going at Drake is. LUPE FIASCO
Coincidence this happened the day Kanye cut his phone off?
I think not.
Time to grab my popcorn and watch all the Cudi, Drake and Kanye fans claw each other to death over who’s the greatest.
cudi and GLC was the last greatest artists ever to grace kanye corny ass label
*Common
Cudi, Drake and Kanye all corny.
Who?
Kid Cudi, one of Kanye many ghostwriters…x ghostwriter now
Fuck this ugly ass irrelevant nigga jst want some publicity lol
He back on that ooh wee
its funny people talk about certain rappers who are hot right now only bitches are protecting them or some shit but then about 99% comments are from guys smh who are the real bitches
Cudi , I hear you but you can’t battle all these dudes ghostwriters. it’s too many of them. See Meek and if you do spit fire they not going to say nothing back, see Joe budden. They wack af but the kids love them. Nothing to be done about it right now.
Now all this fack ass niggas wanna fuck with drake because you can’t b lik him now. Trust me kid cudi you don’t wanna. Fuck wit drake and kanya west okay man
Yasssss… errbody is gettin mad at the success
Cudi just giving back to the less fortunate. Every time a rapper insults Drake, 5 young men from Queens are given a week’s worth of studio time
Hopefully Kudi puts out some real shit now.
Rooting for the guy.
Cudi the only “irrelevant nigga” who can still sellout all his shows and sell 100k in the first week. Calling cudi irrelevant is like calling jayz irrelevant they’re already solidified in the rap game whether you like it or not
When did Kudi do 100k in his first week? And what shows at serious venues is he selling out? No shade. I’d really like to know.
MOTM1- 104,000
MOTM2- 169,000
Indicud- 139,000
Shit even satellite flight sold 87,000, and I’m just saying if he drops another rap album he will easily sell 100k copies
Watch he’s gonna sell at least 5 times the amount your precious young thug sells with his no hit for 7 years having ass. Real music kinda crazy huh bud
Real music? Cudi is only one level above young thug when it comes to substance he wants to be deep and meaningful but he is a white acting black boy and that doesn’t work in hip hop. His music can be corny or interesting but he aint making “real music”anymore than Thug (no my name is Jeffery) does.
Hahaha I can tell by the $ in your name that meaningful music to you is grills and hoes GTFOH
I’m not the one arguing about sales that don’t exist get some facts then talk lil boi! Real music ain’t what Kid Cudi makes his name infers it too what has said that yo dumbass couldn’t come up with just fucking around? So get off my nuts if you can’t argue a point.
My reply up top the other posters already called yo BS on them 100k 1st week numbers so stop nut huggin.
Bruh leave thugga out of this ..the kid is eccentric as fuck ,but I fucks with him, I don’t think he’s made it this far just on fuckery .Jeffery is gonna be around for a bit . Brace yourself gentlemen
Dude relax a bit, he released an album last year and it sold 19k first week, you’re talking about albums 5+ years old, maybe you should look up the definition of relevant.
Well, its fact that King HOV uses ghostwriters. So, I guess Cudi is talking about HOV. Not cool.
I like a few songs from the homie cudi like hyyerr, day n night, and what i am, but everything else sounds bland. I never liked any of the other music he had.
I hate an artist that is his own biggest fan just make good music. I didn’t even know he had an album out last year so how can you act like you’re this great artist and that everybody in the industry is hating on you when they can drop music and people pay attention to it. All this comes off as being mad that his music gets ignored.
The last good Cudi song was Day N Night. Other than that he’s too busy starring in gay films and hyping up his trash music on social media. Drake and Kanye are the 2Pac and Biggie of this era but bigger. He needs to watch himself.
Drake and Kanye the Biggie and Tupac of this era…GTFOH lolololololololo more like the metro sexual zero substance icons of the moment. Keep it 100
He trolling you fool
I’m not you f**kboi. I said bigger, not better. Did Pac or Biggie have their own clothing line with Adidas or Jordan Brand? Did they have partnerships with tech companies or sports franchises? Did they run their own labels? Ya’ll wanna talk music that’s a different conversation but in terms of branding, biggie and pac can’t see Ye and Drake. Sorry bitches, but ya’ll tried though.

How can you compare Drake to Pac and Biggie when their lives were ending prematurely and they are still more influential than Drake? You’re beyond a stan… I never knew someone could reach that level lol…. You’re comparing different generations of HIP-HOP and you’re leaving out the technology factor which we could sit here and talk about for days… I’m gonna let you slide on this one bro… Oh and all the questions you are asking are funny? Tech companies? Lmao how old are you?
Excuse him man he didn’t mean to say biggie and Pac he meant Madonna and Ricky Martin, There you go GOOD OVO I cleared it up for you
LOL ovo in ya name you some dick sucker. pac and biggie prolly didnt have 50 people writing their albums either. you sound soooo stupid
This niggas big headed no pun intended! Do you know how much weed it takes to get that big head high? Ye and drake r icons he’s more like akon. If you put together all the good songs he did together on one album it still wouldn’t be a classic cause he’d need like seven more songs to add to it.
Have you even listened to MOTM….. You lame
icons…eff outta here…
Yes Icons …as in iconic as in legendary.
My favorite music from kid Cudi was off his first two albums. I stopped listening to him because , IMHO, I believe he was trying to blend hip hop with alternative rock which was not executed properly. You can’t mix soft shit with even softer shit and think it’s going to come out hard.
I’m rooting for dude because he has talent but I’m not going to hold my breath.
Who is this dude even? Isn’t he the newest guy in the G-Unit, whys hes talking bout these guys?
i wish i was dead…. give me some advice how to die painlessly. don’t have access to gun. and stupid advices leave to yourself. suicide is my only life aspiration cuz i’m already lost in the world. or what to do before i die? i’m no longer interested in life. i’m tired when ppl talkin to me, i ain’t got no words. insomnia, anxiety and depression made my retarded. no point of return to being how i used to be. even when i move i feel retarded. my face is emotionless. looking weird. nah this can’t be life. wish i wasn’t so fucked up so i could try to do drugs but imma to fucked up for this. i can’t enjoy anything in life anymo’ it’s like all good feelings are over. i don’t want to feel so uncomfortable for the rest of my life that’s why i rationally picked the idea of suicide. who else failed in life so hard that life destroyed their health? life is a living hell when you can’t do what are doing others. every time i see ppl i start to feel very inferior and anxious cuz they are successful in life and i’m not. damn whatta time to be alive. fuck this life. i need to be dead asap. it’s gettin worse and worse by the time. this suicide gonna be very rational and i know it.
Damn man if this is serious I hope you find some healing for real dude, that sounds like a shitty place to be in
Don’t ask why me, instead ask why not me. God puts his hardest tests on the shoulder of his toughest soldiers. I know how it is to fall hard and I’m still working to come back up. We all fall at times, but it not the act of falling that’s important it’s the lessons we learn and experiences we gain. If there were never rainy storms then we’d never know how to enjoy a blue sky sunny day, because if it was always sunny we’d have nothing to compare it to to see the significance of it. Once we realize that in order to find our purpose we must first look to God and then within it all becomes clearer. So many times we look for outside approval, validation, and materialistic temporary gratification, but the solution to most of our issues comes not from outward but within. Seek the truth, be the light, and never forget that God never put us on this earth to live a life of failure, but to live a purposeful and prosperous live. Remember once he brings you to it and through it then to give back to those who need your help as they navigate life’s journey. Be purposeful, resourceful, and blessed.
Real stuff brother*inspirational*
Honestly, your situation sounds a lot like mine. I used to be able to pick up girls and now I have an inferiority complex that hinders my game. I am afraid sometimes that I look weird because I have more wrinkles than other people my age. I am emotionally numb. I can’t feel happiness and I haven’t since 2008. I lost a lot of my best friends. I’ve been diagnosed with Schizoaffective disorder and can’t work at the career I chose and got a masters degree in because it is too high-stress. I’ve experienced darkness that I can’t even put into words but after almost killing myself a few months ago I have a new optimism. I know that I’m lucky to be alive even if answers don’t come easily. I agree with the poster above that it is important to find meaning in suffering. The truth is though, things can get better but first you have to talk to a therapist and get help. Talk to ANYONE in REAL LIFE, so you don’t do something that can’t be reversed. I was lucky but you might not be.
Cudi is that you? Seek therapy.
Salute…Kid Cudi been real…and still can’t be bought. Real tired when a homie or bro to these dudes, like a Cudi to Kanye or Joe to Drake, keep it REAL and are are rewarded for their courage with slander and labeling as ‘irrelevant’ or ‘haters’ looking for attention. They been there for years and have verifiable track records…smarten up fucktards…yall act like you have no common sense like Trump supporters sucking dick ?
Twitter fingers smh
Drake bouta bury dis niggas already dead career.
Nigga aint poppin so he do what dem lame niggas do & be forgotten in 20 minutes
Kid Cudi is about to drop an album lol.. Stay Woke People
