Kid Cudi took the stage at "Saturday Night Live" for the first time, and he did so with two distinct outfits that got social media users talking.

For his first set, the 37-year-old rapper wore a green sweater, Chris Farley t-shirt and ripped jeans while he performed his song "Tequila Shots."

Followers of Cudi commended his shirt choice and viewed it as a kind homage to Farley, who died in 1997 at the age of 33.

Farley was a cast member of the late-night comedy show between 1990 and 1995, and is still considered an iconic figure by some "SNL" fans. The last Farley tribute to hit the Studio 8H stage was in 2019 with Adam Sandler singing an original song about his long lost friend.

Meanwhile, other viewers interpreted Cudi’s green mohair sweater as an homage to the late Kurt Cobain, who wore similar outerwear during Nirvana's 1993 MTV Unplugged performance in New York anddied at the age of 27 nearly five months after the concert was recorded.
