Stupid Idiot by Kelly Reed
After shutting the proverbial door on “i.e. kokoro,” Kelly now makes her debut (as herself) with STUPID IDIOT. Initially inspired by a heartbreaking story about a Chicago woman who very publicly and tragically took her own life in 2016, this album ultimately became a personal exercise — deconstructing the complexities of mental health and articulating all the ways we fight to be seen, heard, and understood.
