Kid Cudi Latest Celebrity News & Gossip

Steven J. Horowitz Senior Music Writer Kid Cudi has officially canceled his upcoming Insano world tour after breaking his ankle during his Coachella set on Sunday (April 21). The rapper revealed the news of the tour cancelation on X (formerly Twitter) today, stating that the injury requires a recovery period that interferes with the tour dates.

Kid Cudi has announced the cancellation of his upcoming North American tour after breaking his foot at Coachella 2024.Last weekend, Kid Cudi performed a last-minute set at Coachella, taking over the Sahara Tent on Sunday (April 21). However, his performance – which was his first at the Californian festival since 2019 – came to an abrupt end after he had broken his foot.The injury occured after Kid Cudi jumped off the stage to get closer to his fans at the barricades during ‘Memories’.

Let’s put it out there quickly, “Sonic The Hedgehog” films—about the young anthropomorphic creatures that run at lightning speeds and become heroes of Earth—are no cinematic marvels or blockbuster essentials, and they’re arguably not super memorable either. But for what they are—light, charming escapes for kids that aren’t a chore to sit through for adults thanks to their breezy pace and charismatic actors — they’re fine little diversions (Jim Carrey and Ben Schwartz being effective in their roles as quippy villains and heroes).

Blur performed Saturday night on the Coachella main stage ahead of No Doubt, they found themselves in front of a relatively unresponsive crowd, especially during their 1994 hit “Girls & Boys.” “You’re never seeing us again, so you might as well fucking sing it,” a clearly frustrated frontman Damon Albarn said after the crowd’s uninspired response during multiple call and response attempts. Segments of the internet soon erupted with confused reactions — were they about to vacate the stage? Were they splitting up again? Were they so frustrated that they were pulling a Frank Ocean and not returning for weekend two? Or, more likely, was it a not-out-of-character act of spontaneous anger from a 56-year-old rock star who’d played two nights at London’s Wembley Stadium to 90,000 screaming fans last summer — who’d screamed the lyrics to “Girls & Boys” almost louder than Albarn could sing them — and apparently didn’t realize that much of the Coachella audience was half his age and did not grow up on such ’90s Britpop classics as “Popscene,” “Tender,” “Coffee & TV,” “The Universal,” “Country House” and “For Tomorrow” (although they probably knew the “Whoo-hoo!” of the group’s biggest hit, “Song 2”).

Kid Cudi and Boosie Badazz have responded to Kanye West saying he “invented every style of music of the past 20 years.”Last week, an interview with Ye and Ty Dolla $ign was released where they sat down with tenured rap authority Big Boy to talk about their ‘Vultures’ album trilogy.
