Kanye West and Kid Cudi formed Kids See Ghosts in 2018 during the Wyoming recording sessions. After delivering one album as part of Ye’s 2018 G.O.O.D. Music blitz, the duo went back to their respective corners.
Kanye has delivered multiple projects over the last four years, including 2021’s Donda, while Kid Cudi finally dropped Man On The Moon III: The Chosen in 2020. But apparently, Kanye doesn’t want his Kids See Ghosts collaborator to be involved with Donda 2 solely because of his friendship with Pete Davidson.
On Saturday (February 12), Ye posted an Instagram post explaining why he was cutting Kid Cudi from the album while throwing another jab at pop star Billie Eilish.
“JUST SO EVERYONE KNOWS CUDI WILL NOT BE ON DONDA BECAUSE HE’S FRIENDS WITH YOU KNOW WHO,” he wrote. “WE ALL SPEAK IN BILLIE LANGUAGE NOW.”
Kid Cudi has since responded to Kanye’s declaration in a series of Twitter posts, one of which he deleted.
“Too bad I don’t wanna be on ur album u fuckin dinosaur hahaha,” he wrote and later deleted. “Everyone knows I’ve been the best thing about ur albums since I met you. Ima pray for u brother.”
He followed up with, “We talked weeks ago about this. You’re whack for flipping the script and posting this lie just for a look on the internet. You ain’t no friend. BYE.”
When a fan suggested Kanye West and Kid Cudi’s online dispute wasn’t worth losing a friendship and called Ye “annoying AF,” Kid Cudi responded with, “Very.” He followed up with, “God opens the door so the wrong people can exit ur life.”
Kanye West launched a public tirade against the Saturday Night Live actor once he started dating his estranged wife Kim Kardashian. The two have been spending ample amounts of time together since initially meeting on the SNL set last October as Kardashian was hosting the long-running comedy sketch show. In fact, Davidson just referred to Kardashian as his “girlfriend” for the first time this week.
In January, Ye took a shot at Davidson on the Game-assisted single “Eazy” in which he raps, ““Boujee and unruly, y’all need to do some chores/Rich ass kids, this ain’t yo mama’s house/Climb on your brother’s shoulders, get that top ramen out/God saved me from that crash/Just so I can beat Pete Davidson’s ass (Who?)/And my new bitch bad, I know Illuminati mad.”
Fans were also convinced Kanye threw another jab at Davidson on the Fivio Foreign single “City Of Gods” earlier this week when he spit, “This afternoon, a hundred goons pullin’ up to SNL (What?)/When I pull up, it’s dead on arrival/They act like they love me, they don’t even like me.”

As for the Billie Eilish reference, Kanye demanded she apologize for seemingly dissing Travis Scott during a recent concert. Eilish abruptly stopped her performance to help a fan who was struggling to breathe and at one point said, “I wait for people to be OK until I keep going.” The press went wild with the comment and accused Eilish of criticizing Scott for the deadly Astroworld tragedy last November.
Kanye wrote in a since-deleted Instagram post, “COME ON BILLIE WE LOVE YOU PLEASE APOLOGIZE TO TRAV AND TO THE FAMILIES OF THE PEOPLE WHO LOST THEIR LIVES NO ONE INTENDED THIS TO HAPPEN. TRAV DIDN’T HAVE ANY IDEA OF WHAT WAS HAPPENING WHEN HE WAS ON STAGE AND WAS VERY HURT BY WHAT HAPPENED AND YES TRAV WILL BE WITH ME AT COACHELLA BUT NOW I NEED BILLIE TO APOLOGIZE BEFORE I PERFORM.”
Eilish, taking note of the chatter, tweeted in response, “literally never said a thing about Travis. Was just helping a fan.”
this guy is such a crybaby, jeez…
ego. pls d.i.e.
I am so entertained :)))
Kanye west is an emotional cripple. I feel nothing but sympathy for the people unfortunate enough to know him in real life. No amount of money could be worth it.
I think even Donda doesn’t even want to be a part of Donda 2 lol
Kanye is such a dumbass its incredible. Havent he learned anything from history? Method Man and Biggie was able to remain cool even when Rae and Big had beef. And Big and Raes reasonings was way more valid than this teenage bs. Kanye will go down as the wackest/corniest/weakest person of all time I swear.
This is how you promote an album, omg hahahahaja i hate him but Kanye is promotion genius now everybody gonna listen to that whack ass album.
Good!!
As much as I hate kanye’s antics (love his music though) he’s right…
Pete Davidson is a prick after what he did to Mac Miller. Instantly gets turned off in my house. Told my daughter to turn a film off that he appeared in. Straight trash man
You sound like a crappy dad. Save up for her upcoming therapy bro.
Kanye is the most pathetic, effeminate bitch made “man” I have ever heard…… “I’m not friends with you no more because you is friends with the white dude who’s fucking my ex wife that was cheating on me all those years and I want her back now” and that Billie Eilish comment sounded like something a child would say” whaaa whaaa you dissed the scumbag weirdo Travis Scott by looking out for your fans”…..Somebody needs to inject some high doses of testosterone into this fool because he is a total disgrace.
pillow fight!
Kanye is a hoe
Playground politics. Grow up people.
I just don’t understand how anyone can listen to Kanye. I’d be happy if I was Cudi that I wouldn’t be part of donda 2 which is guaranteed to be more hot trash just like every Kanye album since my beautiful dark twisted fantasy.
He sounds like a jilted gay lover on a BET show…
Cudi aint said one lie.
Cudi a bitch from jump so him frying his rap career is the best news I’ve heard since covid. Don’t let the door hit your punk ass on the way out. Enjoy the ambience at your next club show with three cross dressers attending
Cudi is a weirdo but he wrote several songs on 808 and Heartbreak – the album that influenced this current generation of melodic rap.
And U a bitch from birth defending Punk’Ye…
Kanye can’t be cool with half the industry then
huh???? because of Pete Davidson….. lol ..hip hop don’t fuck with him like dat .. he will always be the weird lookin boy from wildin out to me ..lol..
If these 2 let me in on their butt pirate action I could get rid of the sexual tension between them. Trust me I can take a mean one up the ol tooter
I don’t even know this Real Talk dude but how pathetic your life has to be to come on every post making gay comments pretending to be someone else? Seriously dude you need therapy.
You don’t even know me? Pfft, you weren’t saying that shit last night when I had my dick down your throat. xoxo
We all know that cudi wouldn’t even last long if it wasn’t for kanye. With Kim deciding to break her vows, it seems only pusha t is truly loyal. Sean, legend, and cudi are all bitches and backstabbers for not supporting Jim.
P.s. I threw all of their cds into the shredder
This is what counts as a Kanye West album rollout right now, ladies and gentlemen. Pathetic.
The Stanyes are out in full force in the comments lol. Not really a Cudi fan but this shit is petty as fuck. This is a grown man in his 40s on some high school girl shit. Poor Kanye! It’s all Kim’s fault! It’s all Pete Davidson’s fault! It’s all Cudi’s fault! Shit, maybe it’s Billie Eilish’s fault! Lmao how can anyone still be defending this clown? Ya’ll need to quit.
LOL. You idiots are acting like this wasn’t agreed upon by both of them to have a bunch of bitches like you taking sides and yapping. Personally I care about the album’s quality. I’ll give it a listen. I don’t care who is or isn’t cut because of who is fucking who. Y’all a bunch of sensodyne tooth paste ass, yeast infection in the mouth having bitch made quief breath asses.
And you’re mad. ?
So instead of working together and getting paid, they’re gonna stage a fake beef so a bunch of nobodies on the internet can talk about it? Lmao that benefits neither of them.
All y’all pusssy…. Kanye is right for cutting that niccca cudi off… he was supposed to be his niggga…. Pete was supposed to be his friend… now he is fucking his ex… all y’all bitch made would have felt some type of way……. Let’s ur friends do this to, will u still be friends with them?
shouldnt wife a bimbo every black millionaire in cali and that play sports already passed around duh this fool actually had kids with her its over for him ye ends in trajedy its already written not like he had street cred but whatever he did have is over
these supposedly “grown ass men” all act like children, smh

“Go to hell Kanye. I’m accepted by whites now”
