Kid Cudi & Kanye West, Common – Poke Her Face (feat. Lady Gaga)

Click on the turntable on the left to listen to a continuous stream of music featured on Pretty Much Amazing - updated every day. For more, you can check out the Best Songs of 2012.

I think most of us heard low quality radio rips of this song all weekend long via slideshow videos of Cudi’s handsome mug. Well, a respectable mp3 has leaked, as I knew it would. One of the great things about hip hop music is that once a shitty quality leak hits the radio or internet, you can almost always count the full high quality mp3 to leak within 48 hours.

But I digress. This is big news right? Kid Cudi, Kanye West, and Common singing over Lady GaGa’s “Poker Face.” Personally I would have probably enjoyed it more if they rapped over the original “Poker Face,” and not the Cherrytree Sessions piano version. I would have probably enjoyed it more if these three exceptionally talented rappers brought their A-game. But I guess you’ll be crazy to expect anything but sex fluff from a song called “Poke Her Face.”

I do have to give it up to Kanye, though. The broken-up use of Medulla Oblongata was hilarious.

Cudi retracted his retirement message @ sxsw :)

Thank goodness for that. Kanye probably beat some sense into him/he was contractually obligated to stick to G.O.O.D./it was obviously a new PR stunt.

Poke Her Face? Oh my. I think I would have preferred the original “Poker Face” for him to rap over, too.
