Kid Cudi Collapses At North Coast Music Festival, Makes Full Recovery [WATCH]

Kid Cudi passed out during his set at North Coast Music Festival in Chicago on Saturday night.

Fan-shot video shows Cudi (birth name: Scott Mescudi) signing autographs before falling over either on or near the stage:

Those who witnessed or heard about the collapse held their breath until this message appeared on Twitter:

The video showed security catching Mescudi before he could hit the ground, and it sounds like they were able to fix him up well.

It took a while for Mescudi to realize the gravity of his situation, but he ended up consoling the hundreds of fans bombarding his mentions.

The Cleveland-born artist was headlining North Coast’s Saturday night lineup, and he’s roughly six months removed from the release of fourth studio album, Satellite Flight: The Journey To Mother Moon.

In March, he discussed the direction of hip-hop.

"I think the braggadocio, money, cash, hoes, thing needs to be deaded," Cudi said. "I feel like that's holding us back as a culture, as black people. It doesn't advance us in any way, shape or form. We been doing that same theme, it's been like what, four decades of the same old bulls--t. I feel like, if you are going to be an artist there comes a time when you have to embrace the responsibility and realize that the power of music is something so special and to be able to do it on this magnitude where you reach millions of people, it's like, why not use that for good?"
