It appears Kid Cudi’s issues are much more serious than anyone knew. On Tuesday night, the Cleveland native took to his Facebook page to announce that he’s checking himself into rehab for what he says is “depression and suicidal urges.” Cudi says he still plans to release music as planned, but needs this time to work on himself.
“I am not at peace. I haven’t been since you’ve known me. If I didn’t come here, I wouldve done something to myself. I simply am a damaged human swimming in a pool of emotions everyday of my life. Theres a ragin violent storm inside of my heart at all times. Idk what peace feels like,” he wrote in an extremely lengthy post.
Following his feelings & update on his mindset, Cudi gave a minor update on the forthcoming album Passion, Pain & Demon Slayin, which he says will hopefully be out by the time Complex’s Complexcon fest happens which is November 5-6. He says he’s leaving it up to his label & manager to handle the promotion, etc.
