Hello all, it has been a ridiculously long time since I last wrote on this thing. Quite a few things have happened but I will get to that on another post (well, maybe). This post is about one of my husbands (in my head) latest album. So far April has been an amazing month for music. Tyler, The Creator with Wolf and Depeche Mode with Delta Machine . Both albums I will be purchasing in the very near future. The album that I was most excited about was Kid Cudi's Indicud! This is technically Cudi's fourth album but his "rock" album WZRD, although ballsy, was just not good. And that's coming from not only a super Cudi fan, but a fan of rock music. Sorry boo, it just wasn't good. So people were excited to hear that Cudi was getting back to Cudi. Not only that but he announced that he will be producing all the tracks himself. Personally I was a bit afraid, this is the first album that Cudi's previous production partners Pat and Emile, who shaped the "Cudder" sound would not be involved in. Long drawn out album review short, this album is pretty amazing. Although Cudi's production can be a bit clunky or busy, there is beauty that can be found in this. One great example is the song "Young Lady" where it literally sounds like 2 songs going on at once, somehow, it works.
There is also an element of surprise with the totally random and amazing collaboration with Micheal Bolton MICHEAL BOLTON!
The song "Afterwards (Bring Yo' Friends) is giving me 90s R&B club infused realness.
Simply put I am throughly impressed with this being Cudi's first full foray into producing and this is the result. I'm happy to be a Cudder fan since the beginning as seen in this post from '09. I LOVE YOU CUDI!
