Kid Cudi Says He’s Getting Off Of Social Media

 

 

Kid Cudi is announcing his departure from social media.

 

After expressing worries about online toxicity and its impact on his mental health, the Grammy-winning rapper announced his decision on Twitter on Saturday.

 

“I’m turnin’ off all comments on IG for all posts,” he wrote. “And I’m thinkin’ about gettin off IG all together, honestly. Think I’ma just keep my Twitter. And I’m only gonna do that cuz I have to. I really wanna get off all socials.”

 

After checking himself into rehab for anxiety, depression, and suicidal thoughts, Cudi took a break from social media a few years ago. Fans were a significant reason for his return, he said Saturday, but the incessant vitriol from trolls was destroying the experience.

 

“There’s a lot of love out there for me, which is why I got back on socials, but some of the shit I see, the trolls, I don’t need to see that shit. For my mental,” he wrote.
