all photos by Sean Dackermann Performing as a headliner preceding Avicii at Maryland's Sweetlife Festival a couple weeks back, Kid Cudi took the stage to much anticipation.  It was a great day thus far, yet the clouds were rolling in, sun was going down, and things were either about to get all the more awesome, or the hangover was coming early. I had several convos throughout the day regarding Cudi and his history of live performances, with the Cleveland kid having developed somewhat of a reputation of unpredictability and volatility.  At the same time, proving that given the right ...

Kid Cudi blasted into another galaxy while shooting the video for “Teleport 2 Me, Jamie,” a single off WZRD’s debut album. The G.O.O.D. Music rapper and Dot Da Genius called on some special effects pros to help bring their vision to life. Mr. Rager, who wrote the song about his real-life girlfriend Jamie Baratta, filmed [...]

Cudder puts the WZRD sound aside on this track as he gears up for the release of Man on the Moon III . No word if this will appear on the new album but who cares, its some new Cudi to add to my playlist. Production courtesy of Mr. Mescudi himself.

Kid Cudi is back. And not the guy that attempted to go the rock route with WZRD. “Dennis, Hook Me Up With Some Of That Whiskey” is a self produced tracks that takes inspiration from most of his earlier work yet still showing us maturity in both lyricism and production. KiD CuDi – Dennis Hook Me Up With Some More Of That Whiskey

WZRD was a trippy, bizarre middle-finger to the labels who wanted to try and constrain Kid Cudi’s style to one genre. While it wasn’t entirely up my alley, I gotta respect the fact that he went out there and made a project that he wanted to make (instead of what the industry/label wanted him to make) — and the fans responded. Last night, Mr. Mescudi released this self-produced track, and people are praising the fact that he’s “returned to rapping”. Instead of over-analyzing what genre this fits in, I’ll just let him be his weird-ass, creative ...

Over the weekend, some live footage of Cudi popped up around the internet of him giving a little sample of a new song he was working on. And in typical Cudder fashion, nothing else was said about the new song at all, so the next move was pretty much anybody's guess. Well today it looks like we have a new song from Cudi.  And while it doesn't appear to be the same one from the video it's still a welcome site and a mouthful to say. "Dennis, Hook Me Up With Some More Of That Whiskey!", still ...

Kid Cudi was last seen putting out a tepid "alternative rock" album as part of his WZRD collaboration with "Day 'N' Nite" producer Dot da Genius...

It's been a while since we've heard  Kid Cudi  rap.  PHOTOS: SET SWAG: Kanye West & Kid Cudi Shoot A Video In The Middle East  The last time we've seen our favorite rager, he was rocking out with guitars on his latest album  WZRD,  the collabo project he recorded with producer  Dot da Genius . Well, he's back to spitting.  Last night, Kid Cudi handed Complex a new gem called "Dennis, Hook Me Up With Some More Of That Whiskey!" And, good God, he's rapping again.  Kid Cudi "The Ruler & The Killer"  Cudi sounds vintage; on the track he spits:  "See, I can never have a desk job. My work take a n*gga abroad. Meeting up late with porn broads. Relaxing because a n*gga hustle hard. Man, I got to take a load off. Meet a dime have her take her clothes off. Take a trip out to Doha, doing short films on a whim."  The beat, which was done by Cudi himself, is standard Cudder: it’s a moody, somewhat rock-inspired, synth heavy beat that ...
