Kid Cudi Mixtape - I'm Just Scott




This mixtape isn't the reinvention of the wheel by Cudi so take that into account before you read this and listen to the mixtape. This mix tape is Cudi just being him self and having fun with making new music. It's the same old Cudi with a few things that aren't ground breaking but are glimpses of what the new Cudi may be with the WZRD. 


Mr.  Kid is my personal favorites on this mixtape. It is just one of those songs that is simply beautiful because it is just so simple. It's Cudi doing what he does best, pouring it all out. Another track that is a lot of fun is Cudi the Kid with drumming done by Travis Barker and the beat being laid down by Steve Aoki, it's a song that goes hard. The heavy bass beat from Aoki and the fast paced drumming of Travis Barker make a great fast paced song with great vocals from Cudi in between. The Run is also a fun song, it is by no stretch a song that is something to hype up but the beat is catchy and makes you want to dance. Brake is a song that should be paid particular attention to, with Dot Da Genius also being featured on the track. If you read the Dose of Dopeness article yesterday you would know that Cudi and Genius are about to release their album under the name WZRD the 28th of this month. I think this is what we can expect from this album. A rock and roll Cudi that puts even more emotion with slow drumming and synth lines that play through to add even a darker emotion. This is what we will most likely see tomorrow when WZRD drops the album. Now the question we re wondering is that will this be a good idea for Cudi. I myself have some worry, but great artist can switch it up and be just as good so this is Cudi's time to really prove what he's got.

Just as a heads up for people reading the song titles are links to the songs on soundcloud  and youtube for your enjoyment. You can also get the full mixtape here.
