Kid Cudi has shed light on the stress he experienced after testifying in a trial involving Diddy, revealing the emotional toll it took on him.
In a candid social media video, Kid Cudi expressed gratitude for the support he’s received during this challenging time. “Hey guys, so I, I just wanna say, man, I’ve been seeing all the love and support, and I just wanna say thank you so much, man,” he shared.
The rapper emphasized how stressful the situation has been for him, saying, “This is a stressful situation. I’m glad it’s behind me and yeah, I love y’all, man.” His sincere words were met with sympathy and understanding from fans who could sense the pressure he was under.
Not everyone supported Cudi’s decision to testify. In a post that has since been deleted, Young Thug criticized Cudi for appearing in court, calling him a ‘rat’. It’s worth noting that Young Thug’s lawyer, Brian Steel, is also part of Diddy’s legal team.
Cudi’s testimony was particularly significant due to references made during the trial about his brief relationship with Cassie in 2011. Cudi confirmed their relationship and mentioned that he believed Cassie had ended things with Diddy at that time.
Diddy allegedly discovered the relationship in December 2011. Cudi recounted an incident where Cassie called him in distress. On that same night, he received word that Diddy was at his home.
Hurrying back home, Cudi called Diddy, only to be told, “I’m over here waiting for you.” Upon arrival, Cudi found that his security cameras weren’t functioning and intruders had rifled through his belongings, even damaging Christmas presents meant for his family.
Cudi’s testimony also revealed a disturbing detail: his dog was injured and locked in the bathroom during the break-in. The incident left a lasting impact, with Cudi noting his pet became “jittery and on edge” afterward.
Reflecting on the break-in, Cudi admitted to feeling angry and wanting to confront Diddy, even considering a physical altercation. He also took the legal step of filing a police report regarding the incident.
Kid Cudi’s testimony in Diddy’s trial has brought a whirlwind of emotions and drama. While he remains appreciative of his fans’ support, the stress of the courtroom ordeal and its aftermath has clearly left a mark. His bravery in speaking up amidst fear and criticism from peers is noteworthy.
