Topic: Kid Cudi
When you come across an artist that is so raw and untouched, it’s insanely refreshing. This yet-to-be-signed-to-a-label Hip Hop artist is all the buzz among our east coast Insighters.
Kid Cudi, born and raised in Cleveland – made his way to Brooklyn three years ago to pursue his dream of becoming a respected hip hop artist. He describes his sound as a fusion of alternative rock, hip hop and occasionally R & B, that forms feel good and emotionally conscious records. His content is filled with witty explanations about himself and his life’s journeys, with a twist of storytelling scenarios. His first single “Day N Nite” is nothing more than a conscious awareness record about his faults and how he deals with them. This speaks to a realness that Millennials feel is missing from music today. His lyrics convey the mistakes he’s made and how he’s dealt with them. He’s revealing a ‘conscious’ approach to laying down lyrics that are true to him and all those who listen.
In reading his bio, he was quoted saying “I’m just a dreamer, turned true to life leaner…Born to do good so others can be believers…”. I truly believe Millennials are buzzing about him not only because he’s a new, talented artist but they are inspired by his humbleness and authenticity. He’s an artist to most definitely watch out for!

Here’s what our Insighters are saying about Kid Cudi:
“Me and my crew have seen this cat throw it down in Brooklyn. He is what hip hop used to be about, real life stories, preached through rhymes. His mix-tape is a collection of some of the best tracks I have heard in a very long time. Hope Kid gets the respect he deserves.” – Mac, 19
“Kid Cudi is what east coast hip hop is all about – real and raw. This ‘Kid’ has some mad flavor. He’s the realest of real and tells a story like no other. I feel him.”
– Tray, 20
“Kid Cudi is like a modern-day philosopher, rapping about his life and the mistakes he’s made. He teaches his lessons through his tracks. Love him and all he’s
about.” – Candice, 18
