The Story Behind "Day & Nite"

It's funny how in the worst of times we always seem to have an artsy side of us that bursts through and makes us realize who we truly are. Almost like a light that's been waiting to get turned on and when everything is dark, that light finally has a time to shine. Happens to many great artists. One of these greats is Kid Cudi. His hit song "Day & Night" was made in this kind of environment and he decided to share his dark story behind everything we hear today. Check it out... [Side Note: "Man on the Moon: The End of the Day" comes out Sept. 15!]

Backtrack: Kid Cudi - Day & Nite

Let's go back to the track that made Mr. Solo Dolo the star he is at the moment. No, not the Crookers Remix (*shudder*) or any other remixes. This is the original song, original video - which I love btw. This vid is so perfectly mixed with the song, it's amazing. "Some things will never change.."

Mr. Hudson - Everything is Broken (Feat. Kid Cudi)

New from the G.O.O.D. crew for Mr. Hudson's upcoming "Straight No Chaser". Hudson & Cudi both go in.

Artist of the Week: Kid Cudi

I remember the first time I heard Kid Cudi. Well, actually the second time. The first was when I heard "Welcome to Heartbreak". But that wasn't a clear idea of who Cudi really was. The real first time was when I heard "Day & Night". I hated him.

Everyone tried to get me into the song and I couldn't stand it. Maybe it was the fact that it was being forced on me by nearly every friend that was into hip-hop music. I don't know what it was, but I couldn't stand it. Then one day, I found myself listening to it. Once..twice..three times. Before I knew it I was listening to the tape "A Kid Named Cudi" and I couldn't stop listening to his original, abstract style. I Embraced the Martian.

Soon after (I think) I heard the 'Buggin' Out Remix' with him and Consequence. Again, I was hooked. This is when I knew the Kid from Cleveland was something special.

Kid Cudi is currently signed to Kanye's label G.O.O.D. Music. With hits like "Day & Night", "Make Her Say", and numerous others, this Kid is definitely going to be something huge this year and in the years ahead. His first album "Man on the Moon: The End of the Day" is coming out August 25th this year. It includes production by Kanye West and Dot Da Genius and guest appearances by Common and Snoop Dogg. Kid Cudi's originality, along with catchy and creative lyrics make him not only a great rapper, but a standout artist as well.

Here's some Cudi-related sites to check out. On the right sidebar you can find a playlist of Kid Cudi's music. That will remain for the week, but if you want to see the playlist later on, you can jump to this post and find it here!
