New Kid Cudi yall

Check out the new leak off Man on the Moon 2: The Legend of Mr Rager, Maniac ft. Cage. Listen on illRoots

Fantastic beat, a sample of St. Vincent's The Strangers. As much as Cudi is an unconventional rapper, this still seems like an odd choice of a sample. The execution is fantastic though, as Cudi seems content to let the track do most of the work, laying down verses seemingly to fit and compliment the beat more than to flex any kind of rapping muscle. The end result is one of the better uses of an indie sample and it adds to the mounting excitement of this fall's coming rap releases.

This seemed more than appropriate as Lion's recent post has moved 3CI into the hip hop world.

Enjoy:
