Kid Cudi says it would take a "miracle" for him to become friends with Kanye West again
Kid Cudi has spoken about his broken friendship with Kanye West, saying it would take a "miracle" for them to become friends again.
Back in April, Kid Cudi revealed on Twitter that his and Ye's song on Pusha T's It's Almost Dry album would be his "last song" with Ye. Kid Cudi also wrote that he's "not cool" with Ye, and that Ye is "not my friend and I only cleared the song for Pusha cuz thats my guy." Shortly after, Pusha T spoke about their falling out, saying "it fucking sucks".
In a new interview with Esquire, Kid Cudi discussed the broken friendship, saying it would take a "miracle" for them to make up.
Speaking about Ye's impact on his career, Kid Cudi said, "I just want to clear that up for anybody that feels like Kanye made my career or made me who I am. He brought me on to do 808s. I thought that was really fucking awesome. I wanted to be a part of a family and saw G.O.O.D. Music as that opportunity. So I finally said yeah. Kanye West did not come and pluck me out of Applebee’s or the Bape store."
"With all due respect, I’m not Drake, who’s about to take a picture with him next week and be friends again, and their beef is squashed," Kid Cudi continued. "That’s not me. What I say, I mean. I will be done with you. It’s gonna take a motherfucking miracle for me and that man to be friends again. I don’t see it happening. He gon’ have to become a monk."
He concluded, "The twisted thing is that I love him, but I love you so much that I can kick you the fuck out of my life and be done with your ass. ’Cause you are not good for me ... I didn’t love myself all them years you knew me. I love myself more now, bro. I love myself way more."
In a video segment, Kid Cudi answered questions about his Netflix show Entergalactic, getting into acting, his dog Nino Brown and more.
Kid Cudi's Entergalactic series will arrive on Netflix on 30 September along with his album of the same name.
