Kid Cudi has paid tribute to a fan who lost his battle with a heart disease on Christmas Day, calling the tragic teen a “real hero.”

Ben Breedlove suffered a fatal heart attack on Sunday after a lifelong struggle with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.

The 18-year-old, from Austin, Texas, became an internet sensation after uploading videos on YouTube.com detailing his health scares as well as offering advice to other youngsters facing hardship.

Earlier this month (Dec11), Breedlove posted a clip about a vision he experienced during a recent brush with death, when he saw himself in a white room with his favourite rapper Cudi.

I think of 311 and Sublime meeting up with Lupe Fiasco to jam and they come up with this kind of art. Travie McCoy is a transitional artist who summons the spirit of Andre 3000 and Gnarles Barkley. I like it and think you will too.

My impression of Hip Hop in Austin now is one of awe. I can not even define hip hop with out saying words like: oppressed people, music, joy, dance, overcome with hope, poetry, art, culture, and other great qualities a movement has. Hip Hop has kept music alive and it can never be dead. This is more than saggy pants and fashion, it is about expressing a moment into a rhythmic flow. Painting a perfect picture of the environment or pressures endured. Experiencing life and spitting it back out in some form or another. There is one word that I wish could be said more often when describing Hip Hop anywhere: Unity. If music doesn’t bring us together, then it is tearing us apart.
