The Mailing List: September 2009 (#4)
4. Man on the Moon: The End of Day
Loosies:
KiD CuDi - Soundtrack 2 My Life
KiD CuDi - Enter Galactic
KiD CuDi - Pursuit of Happiness
Finally. After what seems like a million (not really) features and mixtapes and videos, another one of the Freshman 10 is dropping their ish. KiD CuDi's (is it required that we type it like that) 'Man on the Moon' is set to release on September 15, although, in typical blog fashion it was leaked (not gonna share the link with you; buy that shit for real), but what I'm really looking for is the deluxe version with the DVD and a few unreleased, unleaked tracks on it. I can't say much more about CuDI that hasn't been said before. This man is a breath of fresh air for hip-hop, not in the mold of Lupe where he brought back complex lyrics, but musically. CuDi deviates from the norm so blatantly, that he has to blow up. His electronic-laced sounds and free-flowing lyrics harken vibes of De La Soul, and his penchant for marijuana makes that link all the stronger. Honestly, this summer has been mediocre in terms of albums, so I'm looking forward to this fall, with Cudder and Wale on deck for September and October.
