It’s pretty amazing that celebrities hold a certain “closeness” to respectable fans who dearly appreciate their characters–not to mention there’s no personal connection made between fan and rapper, but Ben Breedlove left millions of people around the world with something to ponder with. Kid Cudi responds to the young kid’s drastic youtube video of Breedlove telling people he’s been suffering with a heart condition. The fan passed away on Christmas Day. Cudi says:

I am so sad about Ben Breedlove. I watched the video he left for the world to see, and him seeing me in detail, in his vision really warmed my heart. I broke down, Iam to tears because I hate how life is so unfair. This has really touched my heart in a way I cant describe, this is why I do what I do. Why I write my life, and why I love you all so much. Life is really fucked up sometimes, but I know Ben is at Peace, and I hope he gets a chance to sit and talk with my Dad. We love you Ben. Forever. Thank you for loving me. To Ben’s family, you raised a real hero, he’s definately mine. You have my love.
