Shots Fired: Kid Cudi Blasts Kanye West, Drake, & More

Kid Cudi may have been all smiles with Kanye West earlier in the year at the Yeezy Season 3 launch, but as the season changed so too has his sentiment.

Because in a series of explosive tweets sent moments ago, the rapping actor took aim at Ye, Drake, and a laundry list of other notable names.

Head below where Cudi lays out his grievance…

“I need yall to know I got so many haters within the industry and these clowns know Im bout to crush their entire existance.

Everyone thinks they’re soooo great. Talkin top 5 and be having 30 people write songs for them…Let me tell you something…The days of the fuckery are over…The fake ones wont be lasting too much longer…Im the one they worry about cause they know I dont give a fuck about the corny shit they do

All my youngins out here reppin, Asap Rocky and the whole ASAP family, Travis Scott, SuperDuper Kyle, Audio Push, Hit Boy, etc, I see yall…And all u jealous chicken heartedshits I see you too…I am the culture.

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 Ive been loyal to those who haven’t been to me and that ends now. 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.” {Source}

The timing of the outburst is noteworthy as it comes ahead of Ye’s new album ‘Turbo Grafx 16’; a set Cudi reportedly worked on.

    • Bitchpleaseeee September 14, 2016

      That was exactly my thought when I saw the headlines ????

  2. Bey&Rih September 14, 2016

    Looks like she’s still smoking thatgood ish…Gurl stop! You’re making a fool out of yourself! ???

    • Janet Xone September 14, 2016

      A fool? Another clueless pop girl Stan. Cudi is the Beyonce to Kanye’s Rihanna. Do your research, he taught Drake and Kanye the style they use today. Find out who wrote 808s and Heartbreak fool.

      • Bey&Rih September 14, 2016

        Lmao!!! You smoking that good ish too. Like I said fool! That applies to ur A** too…Now research these nutts h**!!

      • LOL September 14, 2016

        LOL CUDI IS BEYONCE AND DRAKE IS RIHANNA? SO YOU MEAD CUDI CAN’T GET A HIT EITHER WHILE DRAKE IS SLAYING THE HOT 100? LOL

      • Amerikkka’s Most Wanted ~ Tyler September 14, 2016

        No, he means that Kid Cudi has raw talent. Meanwhile, Kanye is just a gimmick

    • D September 14, 2016

      It’s so tragic to see just how vacuous the average Stan is. You know very little about the industry you’re obsessed with if you didn’t know that Cudi is basically Drake’s dad. He was the first to introduce the carefree and romantic black boy next door vibe to this generation. Drake debuted and built his fan base through the consumer base Cudi built. Please, in the same way Rihanna fans have to acknowledge that Beyonce is the only reason she has a deal Drake and Kanye bandwagoners must accept Cudi’s influence.

      • blue September 14, 2016

        how exactly is kid cudi responsible for drake’s career or beyonce for rihanna’s neither have anything to do with why the others were signed nor do they come to mind when you listen the the other’s music? as much as rihanna and beyonce are compared their music is worlds apart, so is drake and kid cudi’s.

      • #JACKIE September 14, 2016

        Drakes style is NOTHING like Kid Cudi’s girl bye.

  3. Bey&Rih September 14, 2016

    Lmao!!! You smoking that good ish too. Like I said fool! That applies to ur A** too…Now research these nutts h**!!

    GOOD Music hasn’t been sh*t since he, and Hit-Boy left. Now, GOOD just signed the creamiest corny n*gga, Tyga. Who do you think came up with and helped curate many of the classic gems from Ye that we have today? You know for sure he’s right. That’s why Ye had 3,459 different artists on Pablo with convoluted crap he calls music. Although he’s battled a tough time with depression and drugs, he’s still a brilliant musician and an inspiration to many other artists. Now when it comes to Drake, we ALL know that ch-chu train b*tch made. He legit has a sweatshop of artists who he signs to his label just so they can just make hits for him. Canada Dry probably couldn’t even write his own name let alone a 16.

    • Credits September 14, 2016

      Lol @ Canada Dry!!! I feel what you are saying though when it comes to those OVO artists that barely anyone has heard of.

      • iSpeakTruthNoFallacy September 14, 2016

        I know. Majid Jordan are my favorite artists; I just bought tickets to see them next month. Their sound has the key to the future of pop music. Their first two EP’s were simply magic; however, their debut album, although a decent first effort, did not have the same magic. It’s sad that their most notable work (For Free and Hold On We’re Going Home) isn’t theirs. And DJ Khaled’s fat a$$ wants to act like he came up with the music. That song instantly sounds like a Jordan produced track. Their album lacked the inspiration as they were stuck in the build-a-hit sweatshop for Drake’s VIEWS.

      • Rosie September 14, 2016

        Wait Majid Jordan produced For Free? The beat is literally the only good part of that mess. Drake really needs to get his s*** together because he’s been falling all the way off lyrically since that Future collab.

      • iSpeakTruthNoFallacy September 14, 2016

        @Rosie Yep, That’s all Jordan Ullman’s, the producer of the duo’s, work. 40 just added the snare to give it that hip-hop beat. So then, I’m like what did DJ Khaled’s fat a$$ do? When it comes to drake, he took the time to fully go pop. He’s the 2016 male Taylor Swift. Although it was a smart and monumental moment in his career, his true artistry found in his lyrics have declined.

    • Abel Minaj (Arianator Barb) September 14, 2016

      He wanted to do the same with the Weeknd but Abel wasn’t having that s***.

      • iSpeakTruthNoFallacy September 14, 2016

        Exactly! Abel said that he wasn’t going to be a n*gga signed who’s signed to a n*gga that’s signed by another n*gga. The Weeknd has only had the many projects he has, because he didn’t sign with Drake. House of Balloons is one of this generation’s project that will be a classic. I also loved KissLand as it was very experimental which is refreshing.

    its hilarious with usernames on blogs try to pretend they know how the industry actually works when they have absolutely no clue, you know nothing and kid cudi knows only his half of the story, i too will fill salty if people who i feel are benefiting from my work are leaving me in the dust. when was the last time this guy was relevant? or had a hit or a successful album?

  6. Tina Lord Roberts September 14, 2016

    I swear, if TGJ posted an article about Frank Sinatra, Ecuador, Jackie Joyner-Kersee, Freddy Krueger, World War II and Saturn (both car and planet)…someone would still find a way to make it about Beyonce and/or Rihanna.

  7. Paulo September 14, 2016

    I just hope Cudi and his fine self not sipping on the same Steam-Pressed water Brandy been drinking and this diss actually has some substance behind it.

  8. Biting Truth September 14, 2016

    Meh. I’m tired of all these corny, sensitive, boy-next-door swaggot/hipster rappers in gay tight pants anyway. Where the f#ck did the thugs go? What happened to the streets? Cudi/Drake/Kanye would have all been chased out of the Source Awards by the Wu Tang army back in ’95. Hip Hop ain’t supposed to be b****-made.

    • SMH September 14, 2016

      Truth. These pusssy ass rappers nowadays would have never survived during the days of Death Row, Wu Tang & Bad Boy.

    • :/ September 15, 2016

      Yeaaaahhhh bring back the guns and the shooting and the rappers getting murdered yaaaaay. Then in the next breathe you’ll want to say Black Lives Matter.

      There is space for wu tang and there is space for cudi/drake. Even when you had wu tang you still had de la soul, tribe called quest etc. It’s all hip hop and the context of ‘thug life’ is the fact that those particular rappers actually lived it. That is not drake and cudi’ life, leave them be.

      • Biting Truth September 15, 2016

        And you also had Arrested Development, Pharcyde, Digable Planets, Pete Rock & CL Smooth and the Fugees…but so what? Even those calm/laid back/earthy/bohemian hip hop acts of the 90s had a pulse that was organic enough to fit in with the streets than uber corner hip-pop acts Drake, who is more like Will Smith than Q-Tip. The problem is that hip hop today is made by and for millennials. And millennials are corny, overall.

      • :/ September 26, 2016

        Not true at all @bitingtruth and I say this as someone with a preference for every artist you named. Why does hip hop HAVE to have a ‘street’ feel to be ‘organic’. You’re either extra old and bitter or a 15 yr old who just discovered ATCQ. Get over yourself, there is space and a necessity for everyone with talent in hip hop.

  9. SMH September 14, 2016

    Sorry, I don’t know her.

  10. Fancy BISH September 14, 2016

    It sounds like Scott Ramon Seguro Mescudi wants a chance to sit on the throne…but Kanye keeps showing him one of Nori’s old high chairs lol

  11. Angel love September 14, 2016

    Who is kid cudi?

  12. Indie September 14, 2016

    hmmm… I got a lot of love for Kid Cudi but i gott admit i was disappointed to here that he was cut from the new season of Empire half way through filming due to ‘creative differences’, this kinda made me feel like there is a possible Divo thing going on with him right now and i hope that does;t spill into his music cos he really is a great talent, it’s unfortunate that that isn;t recognised on a larger scale, but getting involved in dissing other artist publicly is not the way forward, it just comes off as pressed!

    • iSpeakTruthNoFallacy September 14, 2016

      No, he probably didn’t like the direction his character was going. A lot of black men do not agree with the homos*xual PC message. Cudi is conscious to an extent and puts his music first over the fame.

      • Credits September 14, 2016

        Romeo filled in his spot. Lets see if we will be able to tell why he gave the role up.

  13. #Nicole Nation September 14, 2016

    He’ll always be known as the “day and night” guy by most of these people.

  14. Umm (original) September 14, 2016

    Cudi is dope but you gotta grind to get shine. I’m sick of these artist who have the avenue to make music sit around on twitter talking about what they have already done as if we don’t know. He needs to put out music consistently don’t nobody care what u did on kanye album what did u do for your new album? Where’s your new album? Why haven’t I heard anything from you solo wise since that corny overly happy song that was on a mountain dew commercial? If I can ask all these questions about your music then thats why you have no real following.

    • :/ September 15, 2016

      Lol drag me lool this is actually so true, even personally. You can’t sit back talking about the past. What’s going on in the present.

  15. B_Roni September 14, 2016

    I don’t think he should be coming at people like that. I don’t care how great you are. That mess will backfire quickly. This is why I have to give it to people like Beyonce , Rihanna , usher, alicia keys and even at times Nikki minaj. They don’t deal with this mess. They mind their business, get money, drop an album, tour , and be out secretly working on the next project. Just release the music please.

  16. Rosie September 14, 2016

    What does Beyonce have to do with Cudi lol? I swear y’all stay so bothered 24/7 even with artists that have literally no association with her.
    Anyways, I no longer care for Cudi’s music. Speedin’ Bullet 2 Heaven was the worst album of 2015 and probably this decade so far. However he still obviously isn’t at the right place mentally, and I hope he does get help.

    • Sam September 14, 2016

      I agree, that album was an abomination

  17. Kiii September 14, 2016

    Mess. Cudi needs to just worry about making his music & go. His last album was atrocious & wasn’t perceived very well. Also if they don’t f*ck with you, why are you wasting all this energy on them? It’s completely pointless & it comes off as bitter. He’s too talented be doing this type of stuff.

  18. Nowqd Reddish trjoan ivy blobukz Need UK timely Ukuno eremixi September 17, 2016

    He is a mess
