Ohio rapper Kid Cudi was pulled over yesterday in Los Angeles due to a case of mistaken identity in which he found himself defenseless at gunpoint. After leaving the Joyrich store on Melrose Avenue, his crew, who were in two SUV’s, found themselves being pulled over by an officer on Fairfax Avenue. Three police vehicles slowly pulled up next to Cudi’s vehicles, before eventually pulling them over and demanding that all the passengers drop to their knees with their hands behind their heads.
Kanye West returns to the spotlight with the most unexpected release of the year entitled 808’s and Heartbreak. 808’s and Heartbreak chronicles the devastating loss of his mother Donda West, and a failed shot at romance with his one time fiancé Alexis Phifer, while also paying homage to one of the most rootsy, minimalist electronic instruments ever designed, the “Roland TR-808” drum machine, and believe me, the 808’s and heartbreak are sure to be found everywhere throughout the entire album.
