After raging with fans during his hour-set at North Coast Music Festival here in Chicago, Kid Cudi had a finale that no one saw coming. While performing what is arguably his most famous song, \”Pursuit of Happiness\”, Cudi went down by the barracades to shake some people\’s hands, as well as sign some autographs – however, something must have came over on him because Cudi faints right after he finishes an autograph.
Thankfully, guards were just inches away from Cudi and were able to help out before Cudi was ever able to hit the concrete floor. Several crew members then carried his body away from the pit. Shortly after the incident, Kid Cudi took to Twitter to say he was okay and that he was malnourished:
I\’m ok!!
