Quick Hit: Kid Cudi, Defender of the People, Trashes Stage (Video)

Look, we all love "Fails of the Week", but I really should balance things out and applaud some deserving rappers. With that in mind, a round of applause for Kid Cudi for trashing a stage in Melbourne after they cut his set short, from a full hour to 20 minutes. I'll let the man himself explain:

"If my set is EVER cut short at any show, im trashing the stage. Not out of anger, it takes a lot to get me furious nowadays, but out of principle. The fans always deserve a full set at all shows, especially when they spend their hard earned money on expensive tickets.

A lot of artist wouldnt do what I did in Australia, but I will. Spread the word. No matter the circumstance, cut my set short, im breaking shit. And next time im startin a riot. Me and my fans. Cause promoters will sometime take advantage of the artists, and u gotta let em know what time it is. Cutting nobody any slack.— Rager"

Now a lot of people will say Cudi was immature, which is true, but promoters are so shady they make record label execs look like Mr. Rogers. Hundreds of people paid their hard earned money to see Cudi, and when Cudi couldn't perform, through no fault of his own, he took the side of the people. Fuck yeah.
