KiD CuDi

''Day 'n' Night uh uh...'' 

I thought Kid C was bringing back British Garage when he released that tune - but turns out Scott Ramon Seguro Mescudi is an All Americano Amigo. Fit too. 
Up until (hmmm) about thirty seconds ago, I thought he aight - but who the hell am i kidding - I fancy the pants of this man, his cocky talent, witty lyrics...tattoos (... i know) but its my type of guy. I had it with Pharell and Lupe Fiasco. Aside from the obvious - Cudi is certainly carving a name for himself on the NyLon saturated scene going down atm. 

His first track grew on me - its simple, nostalgic to the days but just a decade ago.  He helped pen a couple of the tracks on the conceptual (and one step ahead and below) 808's And Heartbreak album, and he was the gorgeous vocal behind Kanye's synthesized warbler on the track Welcome To Heartbreak.


So his new stuff? Well I have to admit i wasn't looking beyond the single - but after watching How To Make It In America, I was all over the show's mix-tape courtesy of Mr K CuDi & Co. including Dj Green Lantern -  which led me to his youtube page and back to here - Now with the new concept Hip Hop album 'Man on the Moon' (2009) KiD Cudi is no doubt being compared to Pharrell (swoon), Lupe Fiasco, Kanye West and groups like KENNA and N.E.R.D, respectively. 

None of them bad company, but this is his first album - its good - but lets wait and see where he goes from here, but I had to post this. It makes me want to head to a sweaty pumpin jumpin gig...I got Fat Freddy's Drop on the list but I plan much more this year - and if KiD CuDi decides to rock over, I'm there.
