Despite the fact that Kid Cudi and Kanye West have a collab on Pusha T's upcoming album, It's Almost Dry, the "Pursuit of Happiness" artist clarified he's still not friends with Ye.

"Hey! So I know some of you heard about the song I got with Pusha," Cudi tweeted. "I did this song a year ago when I was still cool with Kanye. I am not cool with that man. He's not my friend and I only cleared the song for Pusha [because] that's my guy. This is the last song you will hear me on with Kanye."

In February, Cudi and West had a falling out, which was sparked by Cudi's friendship with Pete Davidson, who's famously dating Kim Kardashian. "Just so everyone knows Cudi will not be on DONDA [2] because he’s friends with you know who," West shared in a now-deleted Instagram post at the time. Cudi then responded, "Too bad I don't wanna be on your album, you f--kin' dinosaur hahaha. Everyone knows I've been the best thing about your albums since I met you. Ima pray for you brother."

From there, West continued sharing anti-Cudi and anti-Davidson Instagram posts, which are now also deleted. Cudi then took to Twitter to write, "We talked weeks ago about this. You’re whack for flipping the script and posting this lie just for a look on the internet. You ain’t no friend. BYE."

It's Almost Dry is set to drop on April 22. Check out Cudi's tweet about his collab with West below.
