Last month, Kid Cudi posted a message on his Tumblr, claiming ownership over the word "rager," which Machine Gun Kelly has been fond of using.

"There's only one original Rager," he wrote. "And thats me. I started this 'rage' s***. The lifestyle, the term, the whole new meaning and definition of the word. Understand and be clear, I AM THE RAGER, I AM FOREVER. When you hear ANYONE talking 'bout 'rage' or 'raging,' know where that s*** originated. Guess I'ma have to do some trademarkin'. ACCEPT NO SUBSTITUTES. WE LIVE THIS S***!"

Various outlets picked this up, along with what seemed to be a vague response from MGK, and reported that the two rappers were beefing over the term. KarenCivil.com spoke with MGK about the issue.

"There's no issue on my end, man," MGK said. "I'm just talking about a [inaudible] f****** word. Like it shows me I'm doing something. It actually shows me other motherf****** aren't doing something. If you got time to sit there and be mad about a motherf***** using a word that everyone uses. You can come to my shows and see who wakes people the f*** up. It's me and that's what raging is. Raging is being yourself and turning all that negative energy into a positive party and that's what I do."

"I blew up out of Cleveland," he continued. "I'm not about to set my city back 10 years by starting a beef with a motherf***** in my city even though the motherf***** is never in the city. It actually just pisses me off. It's a word and you didn't start the word and I didn't start the word - it's a f****** word. Just like see who does it best and it's clearly the f****** fans that are my shows. There's no issue."
