Kid Cudi & Kanye West Go Platinum With ‘Moon’ Despite Recent Beef

Kanye & Kid Cudi‘s song “Moon”, one of the standouts from Kanye West’s last official studio album Donda, could be one of the last collaborations between the two. Fortunately, the RIAA (Recording Industry Association of America) announced yesterday (July 11th) that the song has now reached platinum certification status. Neither Ye nor Cudi are new to creating platinum records, so this probably means the most to the young Don Toliver who is also on Moon. While the two still have no plans of ever making music again according to Cudi, this should be a sign for them to mend their bond.

The Broken Bond Between Kanye & Cudi

Back in April, Kid Cudi made the status of his partnership with Kanye very clear to fans. The two Hip-Hop legends appeared together on the same song titled “Rock N Roll” from Pusha T’s latest album. Before that song was released, Cudi went on Twitter to say, “I am not cool w that man. He’s not my friend and I only cleared the song for Pusha cuz thats my guy.” Furthermore, he explained that the song was recorded a year ago while the friendship was still solid. He ended off with this statement, “This is the last song u will hear me on w Kanye.” Take a look at the full tweet below:

Hey! So I know some of you heard about the song I got w Pusha. I did this song a year ago when I was still cool w Kanye. I am not cool w that man. He’s not my friend and I only cleared the song for Pusha cuz thats my guy. This is the last song u will hear me on w Kanye -Scott
