So in September [after the release of The Nicki Effect] DJ Ev & Leak Jones announced they were planning on releasing a Kanye-filled mixtape, The Yeezy Effect. Honestly, I am going to start off by saying this is probably one of [if not] the best DJ mixtapes of the year. It features drops from the likes Kid CuDi, Lloyd Banks, & Big Sean, plus it gives you a description of the "Rosewood" movement. & yeah, there might be a couple discs of some of the best songs of 2010 [from Kanye, Jay-Z, Kid CuDi, Big Sean, & Pusha T among others].
But seriously, for some reason this mixtape makes songs that normally I don't like, sound good. Listen above and view the tracklist below.
Yessss ! The MOTM Kid Cudi is back. After having a few songs leak online, including the snippet of "Mr. Rager", the full version has found its way to the interweb.
October 26 Man on the Moon II : The Legend of Mr. Rager drops. You best as hell buy the album, but until then click here .
If you do not remember, Kid CuDi was arrested after playing a impromptu show in Soho [the same weekend as Bonnaroo, the US embarrassing England in the World Cup, and the Back To The Future marathon].
During the time, Weirdoe Clothing was very influential in the breaking of the story, from first quoting TMZ, to later nearly using Plain Pat as a direct source. One of the websites that was interested in the Cudi story was Consequence of Sound. Cos wrote that even though MTV had stated Scotty [MesCudi] was still in jail, they also published that WRDO had said he was bailed out [via Plain Pat].
Let's take this moment in time to celebrate not only the fact that this is crazy, but also that I was right, & MTV was wrong.
