Kid Cudi announced he’s scaling back his social media use, including a break from X
Kid Cudi is looking to scale down his social media presence. On December 19, the rapper posted on X about taking a break from this platform and decreasing his usage of other social media sites.
“I’m done with Twitter for the most part,” Cudi stated in his message before explaining that you can still see him through Instagram, only that it will be less personal. “I’ll keep y’all posted through my stories, but not so much through myself. Team’s got that covered in terms of anything new about projects or other things that I’m working on,” he added.
Then Cudi elaborated on the reasons behind his step, which he says is because he is tired of all the online madness. “I can see a lot of nonsense here and life tends to get way better once a person disconnects,” he wrote. He further said that he feels he has made himself too accessible to the public and will henceforth primarily communicate through music and creative work. Arguably, “Now, you’ll hear from me through my art, I’m saying all of this, love you all, it’s been real, Goodbye.”
Such a move marks a conscious effort by Cudi to come back into the fold of space and prioritize his artistic output instead of just holding conversations on something of social media but leaving the noise behind.
