Kid Cudi had a stroke two weeks after checking himself into rehab for his mental health in 2016, the US rapper revealed in an interview published Wednesday.

While speaking with Esquire magazine, the 38-year-old musician and actor recalled spending a few months in physical rehab to recover from the stroke, which landed him in the hospital and slowed his movement and speech. After the medical event, Cudi's manager and childhood friend Dennis Cummings encouraged him to take a break from music.
