Rapper/actor Kid Cudi is launching his own clothing line, and naturally it would help his brand appeal if he’s viewed as a trendsetter. That may be why Cudi has decided to roll with the narrative that he started the popular trend of skinny jeans.

Cudi Cries Over Missing His Family
Kid Cudi went to social media to admit he’s currently dealing with some personal issues and relying on the power of crying to help him move forward. Without getting too specific, Cudi admitted he missed key family members including his mom and daughter.
“Cryin cuz its good for me. Been dealin w some shit lately and needed this release. Miss my daughter, my mom. For anyone goin thru it cryin helps.”
