KiD CuDi Discusses Brief Rift w/ Consequence
I always wondered what sparked the short lived “beef” between those two. But then they squashed it and it seemed sincere, so it was whatever.
Now, Complex has released some outtakes from the interview for their CuDi cover story in which he explains what happened.
Complex: You’ve managed to stay out of beef pretty well, but what about the whole Consequence situation that happened early on when you were signed to G.O.O.D.?
Kid Cudi: He took it like I gave him a dry “what up” at the Q-Tip party, like I was trying to play him. But I was just completely obliterated out of my skull. And what I found strange was that I spotted him and made my way through the crowd to see him so I don’t see where the confusion would’ve come from, but I just would’ve liked for him to hit me up first. We’re human beings and sometimes we move off emotion. He felt disrespected and he felt like he had to do what he had to do. Me, personally, I would’ve just called the man and said “What’s poppin?” I would think twice before saying some negative shit, because we’re all in the same fam and the alliances have been made. So we talked about it and you know he apologized and everything was kinda like whatever. I told him how I felt he told me how he felt; we respected each other’s opinions, and that’s why we were able to flip it and keep it moving so quickly.
Complex: It was odd for him to put out that video, no?Kid Cudi: It was like, “I wish I could just talk to him and see what’s wrong,” but the video was so aggressive that it put me in the “fuck it” mindset. No sweat off my sack, I didn’t do anything wrong, God knows I didn’t do anything wrong. I’m a fan of Consequences’ work, so I’m glad we were able to talk and squash it and it was daps and pounds. And ever since then me and Cons’ been tight. Ya’ll seen it from doing records and shows together. I got a joint that I’m doin’ on his album which is really fresh; I did a hook for him and you know, G.O.O.D music is on the move. It’s an alliance.
So there you have it. Kumbaya.
He also speaks on his early years in Ohio, how he started rapping, the inspiration behind “Day N Nite” and comparisons to the light-skinned fellow from Toronto.

WASHINGTON — New Washington Wizards coach Flip Saunders says Gilbert Arenas looks fast on the court.
Saunders traveled to Chicago last week and watched Arenas work out and play. Saunders says Arenas’ surgically repaired left leg is about four times as strong as it’s been.
Says Saunders: “He gets to wherever he wants to get on the court. His quickness is back. If you walked into the gym, you wouldn’t know he was hurt.”
Wizards president Ernie Grunfeld says he expects Arenas to be ready from Game 1 this season. Coming off three operations in 1½ years, Arenas played in only two games late last season. He is a three-time All-Star.
Saunders and Grunfeld spoke at Wednesday’s news conference to introduce new center-forward Fabricio Oberto.

You’re the general manager of a team of players that you draft and you decide who starts or not. The point is to get the most productive players in order to benefit you. You go head to head against another team and the top 6 teams go to the playoffs
