KID CUDI performs at VMA's

I'd Probably have to say this was the illest part of that whack ass awards show. I still think Britney should've performed but hey, I'm just one guy. Kid Cudi is actually not bad. I loop "Day n Nite" once in a while.

Here's a Trailer For His Mixtape called "A Kid Named Cudi" followed by A Freestyle w/ 88-keys. Enjoy

P.S. Its not pronounced Koo-dee, its like....Cutty.

PSA

Yo Where Are The Comments?! The blog has over 3000 views and like 10 comments, that definatly doesn't add up. If there's 3000+ views then that means someone's interested and comes back to see stuff they're interested in. I mean come on, least I can get in return is a comment or two.


Don't Be Scared!

Peace.

Manifest Destiny

Mos Def's VERY FIRST music video appearance this is. Here he is in a short-lived group of the 1990's (circa '95) called UTD (Urban Thermo Dynamics). The song is called "Manifest Destiny" and if I remember properly, Mos' brother, who is now his full time DJ, is in the video also.

There's your fun fact about Mos Def.

Umi Says

Yo what ever happened to tracks like this circling the outer atmosphere of the hip hop culture? Songs that make people think about life and its aspects other than how big of a chain you can get with your next 3 pay checks. I mean, I don't wanna preach but, where's it going? "It" being hip hop. Rap is another story because the stuff heard in rap songs are expected to be heard. Its like it kinda leaked into the hip hop side of things though. No one talks about ANYTHING anymore. Jay Z is even gettin the hang of the new jack swing. All he talks about now is cars, money and jewelry. We've gone from Rakim to Soulja Boy. MC Lyte to Lil' Mama. And its so sad for me to watch these new faces think they're making crazy dope tunes and the white dude(s) behind the label are laughing because they know that they're making millions because young black kids wanna learn a dance thy're gonna be tired of in a week or so. But yo that's just me melting the tip of the iceberg. There'll be more to come. But for now...Enjoy one of the greatest MC's MOS DEF - UMI SAYS. Peace.
