Cudi said West apologized sincerely and that everyone deserves grace after the two reunited onstage for the first time in seven years.

- Defending his appearance on Saturday, Cudi stated "everyone deserves some grace" and claimed West is in a better mental state, resembling their dynamic from nearly two decades ago of collaboration.
- Radio personality Peter Rosenberg criticized performers supporting West as "openly lame," prompting Cudi to respond that critics lack the personal relationship and shared history he maintains with West.
- West continues promoting his latest album, "Bully," through a global concert tour spanning multiple countries, despite lingering public skepticism regarding his past antisemitic actions and controversial behavior.
