Man on the Moon - The End of Day

Happy thirsty Thursday everyone. Also known as the day before Friday or the day after Wednesday.

First of all, Cudi's new album (picture below) is dirty. It hasn't let me down and apparently hasn't let many people down all over the web; the album has been greeted with great appraisal in the blog world. There's no chance I'm going to feature more than one song, because I want you to buy the album. We've watched Cudi blow up from the beginning, those of you who have been with me and this blog from the beginning have known about Cudi months before he hit mainstream status. Now he's a common "household" name and the spotlight was on him for this new album. Did he cave in and make radio hits like "I Poke Her Face?" Nope. He opted to say 'fuck that' and delivered a pretty heartfelt album, along with a new direction of music, featuring the electronic sounds of those like Ratatat. As Common narrates the story told in Kid Cudi's album, we really get inside of Cudi's head, getting to see how he feels about stardom and about where he's going next. You really need to buy this album. Immediately. Here's just one of my favorites.
