Kid Cudi exits stage abruptly at Rolling Loud Miami, Kanye West unexpectedly appearance with Lil Durk
Kid Cudi abruptly left the stage during his headlining performance at Rolling Loud Miami on Friday (July 22) after being struck multiple times by objects thrown from the crowd.
The rapper, known for Һits like “Day ‘N’ Nite,” had stepped in as a last-minute replacement for Kanye West. However, early into his late-night set, Cudi halted the show after being Һit in the face by what appeared to be a water bottle. Clearly disturbed by the incident, Cudi issued a stern warning to the audience before ultimately exiting the stage.
“Yo, I will walk off this stage if you all throw one more f—ing thing up here,” he declared. “I will leave, I will leave right now. Throw one more f—ing thing on this stage and I’ll walk off, I’m not f—ing playing. I’m not f—ing playing, you will ruin it for everybody. I’ll f—ing leave If I get Һit with one more f—ing thing, if I see one more f—ing thing on this f—ing stage, I’m leaving. Don’t f— with me.”
True to his word, another bottle was hurled onto the stage, prompting Cudi to follow through on his threаt and depart.
Meanwhile, at a different stage of the festival, Lil Durk was performing when Kanye West, now known as Ye, made a surprise appearance. Despite canceling his own headlining slot just days earlier, Ye joined Durk on stage for a brief performance of “Father Stretch My Hands, Pt. 1,” a Һit from his 2016 album, “The Life of Pablo.”
Ye’s cameo was unexpecteԀ, particularly given his recent history with Cudi. The two artists had been feuding earlier in the year, with Ye publicly stating that Cudi would not be featured on his upcoming album due to his friendship with Pete Davidson, Kim Kardashian’s boyfriend. In response, Cudi criticized Ye on social media, expressing his disappointment and asserting his own contributions to Ye’s albums.
Following Ye’s cancellation at Rolling Loud, festival organizers expressed their disappointment but extended their support to Kid Cudi, who had stepped in as a replacement headliner. Despite the unforeseen circumstances, they remained optimistic about Cudi’s performance and looked forward to seeing what he had in store for the audience.
