The rapper, 40, revealed via his Instagram Story on Thursday, January 23 that a “vulnerable fan” broke into his home — and at the same time lashed out at trolls who joked about the incident online.
“Hey, so I want to clear this up because I see the internet is running on stuff and making jokes and this sh- is not funny,” he wrote via post. “The person who broke into my house was a crazy fan who had been stalking me for years without my knowledge. He’s been in shows, events that I’ve done in the United States and abroad.”

“He drove across the country and came to my house hoping to talk to me about the collaboration and the ideas he had,” he continued. “There is nothing funny about this.

Kid Cudi explained that he would increase his security in light of the incident and has now put it on edge when it comes to any interaction with fans moving forward.
“I’m going to take some serious security measures to make sure this doesn’t happen again,” the caption continued. “I’m not online to see the comments, but word got back to me, people are trashing this and it’s not okay. If I’m weird when you see me now in public, that’s why.”
