A Kid Named Cudi

I chose this album for a few reasons, the first being Kid Cudi is one of my favorite musicians right now, and his most recent album; Man on the Moon, the end of time. Is amazing but I've been hearing it a lot and so I decided to check out an older one, which is a Kid Named Cudi. It has a couple amazing songs, and though I just got it I thought I would tell the outside world about it. My favorite song on it is "The Prayer", its a remix from the song the funeral by band of horses, one of Mr. Cudi's favorite bands, whom he has mentioned in a few interviews, he does a great job rapping and overall the feel to this song is great, check this song out for a taste of the album. That is one of many songs on this album, and not all are alike, unlike his newest album he isn't telling story through the songs. Another song that I have liked so far is, "50 Ways To Make a Record" this song is also taking a back ground audio from a song done a while back by Eminem feat 2pac. The rhythm is a bit different but the overall sound you can hear the similarities. Day n Nite is on both of these records; personally I like it that way because this is probably his biggest hit, (he put it on his myspace back in 2008) though people think its overrated its one of my favorite songs..or at least for now. And for the last song I'll talk about is "Man on the Moon" this album is full of emotion. This song shows his feelings; we need to break off from the mainstream of music, the bad emotions, from fans, and being an individual isn't good. Cudi shows that he isn't afraid, the way he dresses and acts. He cares about his fans and, if the people love him for him then they love him. I am impressed with this attitude, and Im am positive we will be hearing more about this rising star.

Thanks for reading.
