Kid Cudi recently made an appearance on the Zane Lowe podcast to explain why he decided to forgive Kanye West after their falling out, which started when the Chicago rapper became angry that the Cleveland native was still friends with Pete Davidson while the comedian and Kim Kardashian were dating.

Cudi and West then had a bit of a social media feud, during which the former called the latter a “dinosaur,” a huge difference than calling him his “brother” in the Lowe interview.

“Siblings hurt you the most. So you go through things, but family is always there,” he said about his connection to Kanye. “You don’t give up on family. And I think in the thick of it, when it was going down, I wanted to walk away.

“I wanted to give up, but in thinking about it the past couple years, it’s like this is someone who is my brother ultimately who came into my life and championed me and did things for me that nobody else did for me early on in my career.”

Cudi also explained how he owes West a ton of credit for jumpstarting his music career by paying for a video shoot on his first project.

“He’s learning and he’s growing,” Cudi continued. “He knows he made some mistakes and I think that that’s the beauty of it, is this is a beautiful thing.

“It’s like he knows he’s been on one hell of a ride and he knows he’s said some things that he might not be able to come back from in a lot of realms, in a lot of spaces from certain people. But we grow and I think I pray for him, and that’s my brother.”
