“I’m not one of your kids. I’m not Kim. It don’t matter if I’m friends with Pete [Davidson] or not friends with Pete. None of this shit had anything to do with me,” stated Cudi.

He added that Kanye should handle his divorce from Kim Kardashian like an adult and accept his past. Mojo So Dope shares how he has also lost women in his life and owned up to all these life experiences, good or bad, and the Donda Sports owner must work towards doing the same.

How did the beef start?

The beginning of this dispute was Kanye West’s split with socialite Kim Kardashian and the latter’s involvement with former SNL star Pete Davidson. Soon after, the rapper started targeting all associates of Davidson through his social media posts. Kid Cudi, who was also friends with the comedian, was soon called out by West for “betraying him.” The Gold Digger singer did so by posting a photo from Cudi’s 35th birthday party, attended by Timothée Chalamet, Kim Kardashian, Kanye West, and Pete Davidson, and crossing out Davidson’s face.

West also put up another post in which the rapper confirmed that Cudi will not appear on Donda 2, Ye’s 2022 studio album. This post enraged Cudi who was not getting the credit for his talent and hard work. Therefore, he replied in the comment section of the post and their long-running collaboration and friendship came to an end.

“Everyone knows I’ve been the best thing about ur albums since I met u. Ima pray for u brother,” read the comment.
