Rapper Kid Cudi is ready to exit the music game even before his debut album is released this summer, a direct result of the pressure, rigors and foolishness of the profession.

The rapper wrote a comprehensive blog post where he explained his looming exodus.

“After the release of my first LP this summer, I am not making any more solo albums,” he explained on kidcudi.com. “I am falling back on being an artist. The drama that comes with it is more overwhelming than the s**t I was dealing wit when I was piss poor broke. My friends get mad at me, say I’ve changed.”

The 25-year-old Cudi has been a hipster darling with his hit record “Day ‘N Nite.” He has also been the subject of controversy.
