Seems Like Kid Cudi Fell Off

Postby Sekou » Jul 26th, '11, 11:24

I'll start by saying I'm a huge fan of his music. I loved his distinct sound from the very first time I heard the A Kid Named CuDi mixtape and when the first MOTM album dropped it exceeded all my expactations. Same goes for MOTM 2, even though I think it didn't fully recapture the magic of the first album.
Of course he isn't the best rapper, but he just has so much to offer musically, from the spaced out sounds, his haunting and chilling vocals to his excellent choice of beats and effects.

I don't really know a lot about his personal life, but what I heard is he tried to get clean, had a relapse and now finally stopped smoking weed and taking drugs as a whole I suppose. All within the last six months or so.

Well, now he's working on his "rock band" and everything that I've heard from this project so far has been shit. In fact, all the music he's released since MOTM 2 didn't appeal to me in the slightest.
I don't care for his rock album, but I'm afraid MOTM 3 which is supposed to be out fall 2012 will dissapoint.

i hope he stays off it. I quit and my mind and thoughts are a 1000x more clear. I'm sure he's felt the same effects.

I think this is a premature view. Wait and see first.

:facepalm

He didn't fall off idiots. I swear, the internet makes people unable to wait for dope shit, so artists feel like they have to constantly pump out music. Cudi has put out a few just OK songs and he's "fallen off"? Get out of here. He released his ALBUM in 2010 and it was dope.

He also killed a bunch of GOOD Friday tracks last fall, his hook on TI's album was freakin great, and his hook on Con's new song is dope.

Alrigh, Sekou, sit down, take a deep breath. Now tell me, how in the flying fuck can you come to the conclusion that Kid Cudi "fell off" when:

1) You stated that MOTM2 exceeded your expectations (even if it didn't have the same "magic")
2) You HAVE NOT heard almost anything about his upcoming projects: the AKNS mixtape, the rock-ish album, or motm3. What have you heard post MOTM2 huh? Some unfinished verses here and there, a couple guest appearances, the first and only song of the Wizard album and, what else?

I know the internet is like a den for stupidity but c'mon, logic ain't that hard to use.

I'm with you on that, the song was pretty dope. It's not like he made a bad rock song like Lil Wayne.
