Grammar
N3AI-drafted〜くせに
even though; despite (with blame)
Formation
名詞修飾形(V普通形/い形容詞/な形容詞+な/N+の)+ くせに
Usage
Like 〜のに it marks a contradiction, but it always carries the speaker's criticism, contempt or annoyance toward the person concerned. It is casual, spoken language and should not be used about a superior or in polite situations. The subject of both clauses must be the same person, and it is usually not used about the speaker.
