Kid Cudi was blessed with his 2nd Complex Magazine cover and sat down with the homie Joe La Puma for a candid convo about the birth of his first child, the reason he used cocaine, his gripes with Wale, a new direction in life and music and more.
Complex: How heavy did the drug use get?
Kid Cudi: I started doing cocaine to get through interviews, ’cause people wanted to know a lot about my personal life and I wasn’t prepared for a 60 Minutes interview every time. Doing bumps I was able to get through the day, but then I would smoke weed to calm me down—it was the only way I could get through the day without people noticing I was doing it.
