Kid Cudi Hints At Releasing New Music On Twitter
HipHopWired Featured Video Source: Ray Tamarra / Getty Kid Cudi has been highly active lately on various fronts, but it has been a minute since he’s released his own music. One moment on his social media account, however, suggests that could soon change. The “Day And Night” rapper stoked the interest of his fans on Twitter on Wednesday (May 11th) as he dropped a video clip. The eleven-second clip is from 2019, and it shows Cudi nodding his head along to a track. The caption to the tweet asks the question: “Should I drop this?” The snippet of music is one of a bunch that Cudi has on his social media profiles, but this new tweet could be the artist testing the waters. The immediate response from those viewing the tweet was all in favor of him releasing the full track. Kid Cudi hasn’t been la...
Kid Cudi Takes To Twitter To Announce He & Kanye Still Aren’t Cool With Each Other
HipHopWired Featured Video Source: Timothy Norris / Getty For the past few years Kanye West has become quite well-versed in the art of alienating fans, friends and even his rap peers, so it shouldn’t surprise anyone that Kid Cudi recently stated that he and Kim Kardashian’s stalker are no longer on speaking terms after he and Ye traded barbs on social media. Yesterday the Man on The Moon artist seemingly out of nowhere took to Twitter to announce that the only reason that he’s on Pusha T’s album is because he recorded his verse “a year ago when I was still cool w Kanye” but that’s is not the case these days as he is no longer “cool w that man.” Can’t say we saw that coming. Related Stories More than likely this has to do with Kanye West speaking out against Cudi for being cool with his rom...
The Kids Cudi Saved
From the Renaissance Era to our Digital Age, music has remained the method that expresses the language that we cannot. And contrary to what one might think, research has shown music can help heal the heart. Its sounds release dopamine and endorphins that “can induce happy moods and relieve pain” — specifically for the mind. And contemporarily, one could argue that rapper Kid Cudi has become an ambassador for mental health awareness. The 38-year-old employed his lyrics and iconic hums to destigmatize being not okay is okay. But what if I were to say music has always carried this tune and has always been a vessel to discuss personal pains? Before we dive into the 21st century, we need to revisit the Romantic and Classical periods with another musical icon, Ludwig van Beethoven. The German cl...
