Kid Cudi, Kanye West: 'Indicud' Rapper Was Scared To Tell Yeezy He Was Leaving G.O.O.D. Music

Kid Cudi recently made the decision to jump ship from mentor Kanye West's G.O.O.D. Music to start his own label Wicked Awesome. Though the split appears amicable The Indicud rapper admitted to MTV that he was frightened to tell Yeezy he was leaving.

"Holy sh--. That was the most stressful 48 hours ever," Cudi said, referring to the days leading up to revealing his decision.

"I wanted to make sure that when I spoke to [Kanye] he understood and I didn't say anything that would upset him," Cudi explained. "It's a shot in the dark telling someone what I had to tell him, but I was overthinking it. I was way off."

Cudi admitted that he is "emotional" and tends to "overthink sh- all the time", which is no surprise to everyone who listened to Man on the Moon: The End of Day.

Cudi also revealed that all is well between the former master and his protégé.

"In the last email he sent me, he was just like, 'Yo, come out to Paris and work,' but I gotta go shoot 'Need for Speed' first," Cudi said. "I'ma handle that and hopefully he's still working because I got some time in between so I might jet out and go check him, play him some beats that I been working on. Now that I know he might need my help I might go in the studio and actually try to make some beats with him in mind and see what comes outta that."

In other Cudi news, his recently released album Indicud is getting torn apart, much like...well, pretty much every studio album Cudi's released.

Noisey's The Kid Mero gave the album "2 PILES OF DUTCHGUTS OUTTA 5" saying that the album tries to be groundbreaking and fails miserably.

"SLOWING DOWN SOME RONI SIZE B-SIDES AND SIGH-RAPPING OVER THE SH** AIN'T CREATIVE, SLIME" Mero writes. (Seriously, go check the review out if you need a laugh).

Consequence of Sound gives a much more serious review saying "Cudi's once-promising rap skills are now without depth or panache" and that the album "proves that Kid Cudi has a lot of sorting to do, and continuing down the same old path simply won't cut it in the long-run."

What do you think? Was Cudi right to be frightened of Kanye West when he told him that he was leaving G.O.O.D. Music? Have you listened to Indicud? Is it as bad as people say? Is it worse than WZRD? Is that even possible?
