Overview
- Kid Cudi disclosed on X that he and Kanye West have begun “rebuilding our friendship,” saying they exchanged recent check-ins about how they were doing.
- The update, posted Sunday, stressed the conversations contain “no work talk” and are centered on personal wellbeing rather than new projects.
- When asked about music, Cudi replied he is confident they will work together again but confirmed there are no active plans for collaboration.
- Cudi’s outreach follows public conciliatory signals this year, including onstage shout-outs and closing shows with the Kids See Ghosts song “Reborn.”
- Their renewed contact matters because Kanye helped launch Cudi’s career and their past collaborations reshaped modern hip-hop, so a repaired friendship could influence future creative work and fan expectations.
