Kid Cudi is fed up. The 32-year old rapper, whose Passion, Pain & Demon Slayin’ is set to arrive “this month,” unleashed a series of hostile tweets yesterday, aimed at his peers in the music industry.
I need yall to know I got so many haters within the industry and these clowns know Im bout to crush their entire existance.

Cudi didn’t let fans speculate for long, almost immediately letting everyone know that his comments were directed towards his former mentor, Kanye West, and Drake, whom Ye is working with on an album.
My tweets apply to who they apply. Ye, Drake, whoever. These niggas dont give a fuck about me. And they aint fuckin with me.

Kanye isn’t one to hold his tongue about anything, so it’s no surprise that he addressed Cudi’s comments on stage at the Saint Pablo tour last night, telling Cudi, “Don’t never mention Ye name. I birthed you!”
Ye’s entire rant about Cudi runs for well over a minute. Watch it below.

Drake took a decidedly more playful approach to the situation.
