Blessed to have fans who actually give a f*** about me,” Cudi tweeted. “Mad love to the security who were there and helped me out tonight. Really awesome dudes! Thanx for nursing me back to health ha. I’ll do a better and make sure to eat properly on show days 🙂 scouts honor! I love you Chicago. Don’t you forget that s**t. Ever. If I scared anyone tonight I am so so sorry from the bottom of my heart.”
