Kid Cudi took the stand in Sean Diddy Combs' sex trafficking and racketeering trial on Thursday. Afterward, Cudi shared in a video that testifying was “stressful.”

“Hey guys, so I, I just wanna say, man, I've been seeing all the love and support, and I just wanna say thank you so much, man,” the rapper said. “People have been hitting me up the past week just checking in and, and even today, and I just, it really means a lot to me, man.

“You guys are the best. I love y'all. This is a stressful situation," he continued. “I'm glad it's behind me and yeah, I love y'all, man."

The "Pursuit of Happiness" artist was called as a witness and asked about his and Cassie Ventura’s “brief” relationship, which ended due to purported harassment from Diddy and the ensuing “drama.”

Cudi and Cassie dated in 2011, which was accompanied by an alleged break-in into Cudi’s home by Diddy. The incarcerated mogul also allegedly blew up Cudi’s Porsche with a Molotov cocktail.

Cudi said the break-in left his dog “jittery,” and because of that, he wanted to “fight” Diddy.

If convicted in the trial, which is expected to last two months, Diddy could face a life sentence in prison.
