Kid Cudi just released his debut album “Man on the Moon: The End of Day” in September last year and had quickly followed-up with his second album “Man on the Moon II: The Legend of Mr. Rager”, and has now even announced that he wants to go into rock and start a band called Wizard after finishing promotion for this album. Kid Cudi seems to be moving at a remarkably fast pace, he’s been releasing tracks from this album since June and a countless number of them have leaked all year. ‘Scott Mescudi vs. The World’, ‘REFOFEV’, ‘Mojo So Dope’, ‘Erase Me’, ‘Wild’n Cuz I’m Young’, ‘MANIAC’, ‘Marijuana’ and ‘Mr. Rager’ are all tracks that have leaked before the album which shows how much pf the album we’ve actaully listened to ahead of the leak, it gives us a good idea of what to expect from the album. Most of the album consists of the typically melnacholly rapping from Kid Cudi but the beats also happen to to convey that depressing nature, while the last album had plenty of downtrodden songs it also had some great beats ‘Pursuit of Happiness’, ‘Day N Nite’. On the first listen ‘Ashin’ Kusher’ and ‘Erase Me’ sound pretty great featuring guitar throughout. ‘GHOST’ is a nice surpise near the end with the synth and catchy lyrics. The album is out on November 9, you can buy the album here.
