Bada bing, bada boop. Kid Cudi's wearing a pair of blue jeans, a black leather jacket, and he likely smells a little bit like cigarettes. And I only say that because prior to sitting on that witness stand at the very front of the courtroom, Kid Cudi is seen getting out of his car in front of the federal courthouse. It's pouring rain outside. A guard is holding an umbrella for him.

He looks like he's walking out of a K-drama or some sort of superhero movie. Kid Cudi is smoking a cigarette before walking into that courthouse. which have left a lot of netizens commenting all over the internet, when you smoke a cigarette before walking into court to testify, you know you're about to take somebody down.

And now he's sitting in that courtroom, and I will say, it does look like there's 90,000 other places Kid Cudi wants to be. but he does sit up there rather casually. Like, he looks like he might not want to be there, but he doesn't look afraid. He doesn't look intimidated. He looks like he's making a pit stop on a road trip to the federal courthouse before the long weekend.

His destination is the Hamptons. Prosecutor Johnson is in the middle of asking Kid Cudi a bunch of questions in front of the jurors. Why were you concerned about your safety? Kid Cudi is about to open his mouth and respond, but defense attorney Brian Steele, Young Thug's former attorney, passionately, I don't want to say scream, but he states into the mic, objection, your honor.

The judge is glancing over because, I mean, I don't know, maybe he's thinking what I'm thinking, which is, I feel like that's a valid question. Grounds, speculation, future dangerousness. The judge does not agree. That's overruled. And the prosecutor continues. Prosecutor Johnson looks back up at Kid Cudi. You just said you were concerned for your safety and Miss Ventura, Cassie's safety.

102.729 - 122.901 Host

Why were you concerned about your safety? Because I kind of... Brian Steele stands up again. Your Honor, objection. Can we approach? The objection is overruled. Could you just ask the question again, Ms. Johnson? Sure. We were talking about when you broke off your relationship with Ms. Ventura. Do you remember that? Yes. And that was around the end of the year 2011, is that right? Yes.

123.522 - 146.884 Host

And you mentioned that you had safety concerns. yes why did you have safety concerns because i knew that sean combs was vi brian steele is more aggressive this third time objection your honor can we approach now in the midst of this oddly heated exchange there is a sidebar where brian steele asks the judge may i yes Your Honor, I'm going to move for a mistrial.

147.144 - 168.105 Host

This is Sean Combs' defense attorney. He says, Your Honor, I'm going to move for a mistrial. The government knows that the answer is about to be that Mr. Combs has had other people killed. This is an outrageous question. I'm sorry, what? The minute that you read this sidebar, because you don't hear this sidebar in court, you get the transcript at the end of the day.

168.565 - 181.352 Host

Brian Steele, Sean Combs' defense attorney, is saying that the government knows that Kid Cudi is going to tell the jurors that Sean Combs has other people killed. Yeah, that's some crazy things.
