KID CUDI UNDERGOES SECOND SURGERY ON BROKEN FOOT AFTER NASTY COACHELLA FALL

Kid Cudi has undergone another surgery on his broken foot after taking a nasty spill while performing at Coachella.

The Cleveland-born rapper took to Instagram on Wednesday (May 22) to share some photos post-surgery, offering two thumbs up in one and a goofy face in the second.

He captioned the post: “Just finished my 2nd surgery. It was a success. Feelin goood man!! [peace sign emoji, black heart emoji, prayer hands emoji, smiley face emoji]. Send me all ur love, I could really use it.”

Check out the post below.

Last month, Cudder’s Coachella set ended early after he decided to jump off the stage — presumably to mingle with fans — but botched his landing.

A video of the moment showed Cudi making his way to the edge of the stage and almost losing his balance, before taking the 6-foot-plus dive and crash landing on the ground.

The “Day ‘N’ Nite” hitmaker then laid on the ground in pain for several moments as security came to his aid. He was unable to continue performing and forced to cut his set short.

After the curtailed performance, Cudi revealed on X (formerly Twitter) that he was taken to hospital with a broken foot, although he appeared to be in good spirits.

“Hey guys, so I broke my foot today at the show,” he wrote. “Just leavin the hospital. Never broken a bone before so this is all a bit crazy.

“I wanna thank u all for ur concerns and well wishes!! I love yall man. I heard yall still ragin when I was offstage. Made me smile big.”

A few days later, the Ohio native accepted that he may just be past his prime rage age.

“Um, yeah. Shit got real yesterday,” he said while lying in bed. “This is what happens when a 40-year-old man tries to prance around off stage like he’s 26, like he used to do back in the day. I learned a valuable lesson — no more prancing around and jumping off stages.

“I’m hoping that I’ll be healed up in time for tour. That’s the plan. I don’t wanna let you guys down, so yeah, that’s what we’re aiming for. Not cancelling anything just yet. Just gonna wait and see how things go. But I’m okay; little sore. Yesterday was a lot of pain, but I’m doing better now.

He continued: “I have a little temporary cast on and I gotta go get a real cast in a little bit. Apparently, I broke something in my heel. This is a major setback. But don’t worry, I’ma bounce back. I love y’all, all day! Engage the rage, but not at 40.”

Pop Smoke's Alleged Killer Reportedly Released From Prison

According to numerous online reports and social media activity, authorities reportedly released one of Pop Smoke's alleged killers from jail (specifically juvie) for what seems like his 21st birthday. Moreover, there isn't a lot of concrete information available about this supposed release at press time, other than this being the completion of the alleged killer's four-year sentence for pleading guilty to murder. This follows other developments in the New York drill rapper's murder case, such as an alleged eyewitness explaining how it all went down. That took place on social media, though, not in court. As such, there are still a lot of unanswered questions and doubts when it comes to this tragedy.

Furthermore, four years have passed since Pop Smoke died in a home invasion and robbery, and only one defendant remains in his case. Corey Walker is also the only adult defendant in this case, and the court delayed his trial due to an inability to settle a plea agreement with prosecutors. "Negotiations fell through, but there’s still a possibility we’ll come to an agreement," defense attorney Deion Benjamin told Rolling Stone. "A few things need to be ironed out. If they don’t get resolved, we’ll go to trial," for which jury selection would begin on August 6.

Pop Smoke's Alleged Killer Is Reportedly Free

However, this vague release definitely isn't the most odd or bizarre thing to emerge out of this Pop Smoke case. Some connected it to the death of rapper Sirtanky, and believe that the latter passed away as a move of retaliation for the murder of the former. In fact, the Los Angeles rapper washed up in a barrel on the shores of Malibu, a gruesome and disturbing end with unclear context behind it. Hopefully no further violence affects this whole situation.

Meanwhile, Pop Smoke continues to live on as a staple of contemporary New York hip-hop, falling alongside city legends that have also done a lot to rep for the city in their respective eras. Sadly, his time on this Earth was far too short for him to fully enjoy and realize his impact, potential, talents, and life. Hopefully this release is a sign of completed justice, and that folks involved have learned from their horrific actions. We'll see how else The Woo endures.
