I’m not exactly sure when Kid Cudi left in the first place, and that’s ok, I’ve always been the kind of person that will go to a birthday party without knowing who the birdthday boy/girl was — I just want cake.
On “Cudderisback”, Kid Cudi, or Cudder (terrible nickname, it just sounds dirty) raps over Vampire Weekend’s “Ottoman”. If you didn’t know, “Ottoman” was commissioned by the Nick and Norah’s Infinite Playlist people for an indietastic, better than New Moon Soundtrack soundtrack.
Other than the Vampire Weekend, “Cudderisback” doesn’t stray from Kid Cudi’s proven method of indie-rap song craftsmanship. Cudi touches base on a colorful array of topics, but again leaves me feeling like he doesn’t have much to say. He has nothing to worry about though, Ivy League afro-pop in the background makes everything better.

this song is fetch yo, you guys are 2 days late though
I’m so tired of reading comments like these. What? You can only listen to a track the day it came out?
I like PMA because they put effort into their posts. They don’t just throw zshare links down with a crappy picture like other blogs.
PMA has spoken out against this rushed-like music scene. They’re obviously not a part of the “give it to me now so I can get a lot of hits on HypeM” world of blogging.
Totally true. Now that I think about it yea….I look at other music blogs and they just post a load of links. They don’t even listen to all the music. They always give a biased opinion too. PMA is great like that

Actually, Ezra (you know… the lead singer from Vampire Weekend) linked to this post on Twitter http://twitter.com/arzE/status/6319536764
Maybe PMA are the smart ones. Slow and easy wins the race, and what not…
meh. don’t like it. ottoman is a great song, but i’m not feelin his flow on this one
Weed. Bitches. Self-Promotion. I feel a manifesto coming on.
I hated this track. I loved the album, but hated this track.
It just never worked for me.
Cudder isn’t a nickname for Cudi, it’s the joint title of him and another rapper called ‘Chip tha ripper’.
That’s what he means by Cudderisback.
It’s a shame that his lyrics don’t mean much. But afterall, he admits that his music is just entertainement.
are you fucking retarded? cudi’s lyrics mean more then 75% of the rappers out there. and when did he say it was just for entertainment? you definantly dont know your facts cuz he sings what feels natural to him. alot of the stuff he sings about is true. i went to school with him when he was still at shaker heights. im one of the few that actually new him. so if ya dont like it why comment on it? he came up with a song for ppl like you, its called up up and away. then tell me that his lyrics mean nuthin.
his leaving was when he said he wouldn’t make anymore albums after man on the moon
he decided he will
thats the coming going thing
