Kid Cudi reflects on his relationship with Cassie Ventura, noting it bruised Sean Combs's ego, particularly as Cudi was perceived as the underdog in the industry. During a trial, Cudi recounted an incident where Combs vandalized his property, illustrating their tension. Despite Combs's reaction, Cudi valued his connection with Cassie, who he felt was going through significant struggles. Their bond transitioned from a friendship to a deeper emotional and physical connection, yet Cudi recognized that a long-term commitment was unlikely due to the circumstances surrounding Cassie's life.
Me being with her bruised his ego, and that also made me feel good, because I was the underdog in the industry at that time. I was all skinny and shit and wasn't working out. I was still the style god, but I wasn't to my full potential, and he was crushed.
I knew right then: I won. Man, you can't even be a G and just say, 'Yeah, I did that shit. Do something.' I would have respected that.
I got this hot babe in my face saying she wants me and she's single - I'm not double-checking that. I tried to provide some refuge to Cassie as a friend while she was facing unspeakable abuse at the hands of a tyrant with immense influence.
Cassie had so much going on that a long-term, committed relationship never felt possible - and I never wanted that because I was mad.
