Much buzz was given to Scott Mescudi aka Kid Cudi when he dropped his mixtape "A Kid Named Cudi." The mixtape led him to getting signed to Kanye West's record label GOOD Music. First single "Day N Night" had already been making the rounds and was able to peak to #3 on the Billboard Hot 100. As for the rest of the album it's split into 5 Acts which make this one interesting debut. He's a rapper indeed but the music isn't just hip-hop. He takes his talent and backs it up with interesting alternative, electro, rock influences. The cool features like Ratatat & MGMT also help this album out. It should be interesting to see where he goes from here as this is a good first effort. Check it out and BUY YOUR COPY SEPTEMBER 15TH!!
