I have to give props to my man Jeremy for this one. Kid CuDi is a sight for sore eyes in the genre of Hip-Hop. The alternative rapper shows his versatility through his style and recordings. The beats are solid, and his voice tops off the production. The music flows and the tunes and beats are pretty dang catchy. His first mixtape, "A Kid Named CuDi" caught the attention of everyone's favorite egotistical beast rapper, Kanye West, which got Cudi signed to GOOD Music (think John Legend and Common). "A Kid Named CuDi" also features the first single off of Cudi's upcoming album, Day 'n Nite. This song features a smooth Trip Hop beat sparsed with introspective lyrics about a lonely smoker. But I more prefer Cudi's other mixtape, "Dat Kid From Cleveland". This one shows a better selection of Cudi's abilities, especially on the song "Poke Her Face" and "Super Boo", a driving song with more than solid rapping.
I'm pretty sure that we are going to be hearing more from Cudi. Though it would be sacrilege to compare him to Kanye (and doing such would warrant a call from Kanye's PR team), I believe that Cudi will, like Kanye, be continuously successful. The first album, "Man on the Moon: The Gaurdians" is expected to be released August 25th.
