Kid Cudi: 'The Legend of Mr. Rager' Trailer #4 (Prefix Premiere)

Kid Cudi: 'The Legend of Mr. Rager' Trailer #4 (Prefix Premiere)

Can you really believe he is this big?! KiD CuDi is only getting bigger and bigger. His first first studio album was retarded good. You could call it Altruistic brute-force beauty. Don't ask me what that means, I don't have an answer. I just know that it sounds super haggard.

His second album the legend of mister rager is amazing in a totally different way. As in, the man on the moon 1, it was more-so a hip hop album than anything else. But if you pay attention, there are a few tracks with Ratatat and one of those said songs, also features very indie rockers, MGMT. It's quite a track. I had to listen to it twice in a row last week while driving home because it presented me with such euphoria. I can't remember exactly, but I believe the track is called, "Alive." Don't quote me on it if I'm wrong. This second album is quite different. There is only one or two, if any, hip hop tracks on this album. He really took a leap of faith with his fans. I think he kind of knew it would be like this, and he know the fans would follow. Why else would Mr. Kanye West let him take on such a risk. I've been blogging more than usual lately, and specifically about Mr. Scott Mescudi, or KiD CuDi as the world has come to know him. Sorry about that, he's just such a champion. Have a wonderful week, maybe day, depending on how well it goes.

Once upon a time, nobody gave a ****, it's all said and done and my ****'s been sucked?

YouTube - Kid Cudi - Soundtrack To My Life (LIVE) in NYC

This song is so much better when you watch him perform it. I've been in Rexburg for about sixteen hours, and I've listened to this song maybe a dozen times already. Oh and I was asleep for the first six hours.

Well, it's a few hours later now, which means time to go back down to Utah. Down to Amarillo tomorrow. Oh, but I'll get there some time on Friday. These things happen. We'll meet again soon, subscribers.

Okay, this system is definitely flawed or rigged or something. I don't know exactly what it is, but I won the first tee shirt so easily, and that was on a Saturday, when everyone was ready to win, the very first day, where everyone was on their toes. Maybe I'm retarded and can't beat a computer, but I wanna keep winning shirts. I'll try to figure it out. If you have any thing you want to throw in to help or to mock me, please do so. Thanks.

Lack of sleep leads to a beautiful breakdown

Think about it. We all know that it's true. If you stay up late enough, eventually you will run into a point in the night where anything is possible. There is a song, I can't remember if it's Frou Frou or someone else, where it talks about "beauty in the breakdown." It was in the movie, Garden State. Back to the present day, or night if you will. I've been in Rexburg for like four days or so? Something like that. I've been staying with Tom George and his roommates in the Pines. I've met some new friends while at the same time running into people from the past. The majority of the people that i inadvertently ran into had no positive or negative preference on me of seeing, except for tonight at Broulims. I mean, it's not like anything bad ever happened with her, never kissed or anything or had a fight or anything at all. We just stopped talking. I went to check out tonight and went in her line, saw it was her, and walked to the other line, which had a couple of people that had quite a few things to purchase. I didn't mind waiting, I just didn't want to have an awkward conversation. The people working told me she could help me in the other line, so i walked over, kept my head down and didn't talk. But then, she saw my face. It's not bad, just kind of like ughhhhh. We talked for a couple minutes, and I left, unharmed.

I've been getting back into crayons and coloring pictures for no apparent reason. It's been pretty fun. I'm not talented at all. I just draw and color to get creative energy released. I think i want to get back into coloring on part of the paper and writing songs based off the drawings i come up with. I draw a lot of hearts and eyes and I don't really know why. I mean, the tattoo I drew that's on my chest has a heart and eyes, but who knows. I'm done with tattoos anyway, but I'll keep drawing just because I can.

Tomorrow or later today if you want to be a douche and be technical, we're going to skate at the St. Anthony skate park, which will be pretty awesome. We're gonna try to make a stop motion skate video, well, i mean, it's a plan, and i think we can actually get it done. He's got a cool computer and the know-how. I've got too much music, so I'll come up with that and steez points. Who knows what will actually go down, but let's try to have tomorrow at least be half as awesome as today was. I'm a little tired now and might fall asleep, so let's end on a good note and enjoy our time.

The house of someone I know

I'm sitting with my legs extended on a brown couch in the house of a lady that I quite admire.  She's a beautiful young lady that I have contained feelings of for a long time.  I feel as if she can see right through me, but it does not worry me the least bit.   She knows I would drive any distance to see her.  As I have the previous night.  I would drive it again tomorrow if she would ask me to, but she already knows this.

I seek nothing unholy, but I desire to sit right next to her shortly.  I'm hoping we watch a film, but you know how these things go.  She's a classy woman, and I've learned to try to be classy, and she can make sure I maintain this level of class.  While a friend of mine encourages me to kiss her this night, because girls love to be swept off their feet.  While I do love this angle, I feel she would not desire it.  She's an old-fashioned lady, and I want to respect that.  I'll consider it a wonderful night if I hold her hand.  I would drive home smiling even if that doesn't happen.  I know that no one will read this, but it's the thought that counts.  I'm putting my thoughts out there for anyone that wants to explore my brain.

Man, was he fat. So, so fat.



So I haven't written you all in a very long time. I guess that means that not too much has been happening. It's totally okay with me if that's okay with you. I'd rather wait until I have something clever to say.

I'm currently sitting on Erik's couch in Bellevue, Washington. It's pretty chill here. The drive was a little uneventful, but Jackie kept me company on the road, along with all my music on shuffle. We made it in about four hours, give or take a little bit. We got here and hung out for a little bit and then headed over to Little Caesar's for some pizza and went and had a picnic type thing by the lake. It was really chilly, but you know, with warm pizza, and the company of some cool people, the warmth was there for sure. You know, I'm just a little retarded, but hey, what can you expect?

After that, we walked around for a while, and just took some pictures. Then maybe we drove around, I can't really remember. The next thing I do remember though is a show that we went to at some teen center. The crowd wasn't all that big, and there weren't really any like "official" bands, but we made the best of the situation. Chillin all cool in the corner, playing charades with pictionary cards. Who knew we were that cool...

We're finishing off the night now, watching a film or two or ten..

Love,

The Only One

If I ain't on my grind, then what you call that?


I realized that I don't write in here as much. It probably has something to do with me starting school a little over a month ago, and even more with me finding a job. That's right, I have a job now, but I'll tell you more about that in a few minutes.
School is going great, just kind of weird being back in school and actually handling business. The last two attempts at college were about as shitty as can possibly be. Sorry for the language, but I was that ignorant to how important education is, and now that I have finally turned it around, I realize that it was really that bad on my part.
So I have four classes that take up my school portions of the week. First of all there is my English 101 class. It's not that bad, I have a girl in the class that is kind of annoying. It's that big of a deal that I have someone else in the class, it's actually nice because she makes me look like a better student than I really am most of the time. We've had two essays so far, and another one due next week for midterm. It's a research essay. We've had like four or five quizzes, of which I've gotten perfect scores on, but it's no big deal. I'm not sure what I want to research for my next essay, but you know me, I'll find something good.
My other class is English 104, which is English: Punctuation and Grammar. It seems to be one of those classes where if you show up, show general interest in the classwork and offer participation, you'll get a good grade. I sure hope I'm right on that, because that's what I've been doing, and it seems to be going well so far. Today was a funny day, I mean that something happened in class that made me laugh out loud. This girl that has grown up around the English language was incorrect in finding a verb in a sentence, but then the Russian girl, like legitimate Russian born Russian girl, corrected her. I was probably the only person that found humor in this, but that doesn't stop me from laughing.
Then of course there is my Microsoft Word class. This one is a little weird. I have all the assignments, and an instructor to help when I want it, but I have no classroom instruction, which really kind of throws me off. I still get everything done, but at least with the other classes there are set times. It's just weird to me, but that's okay. Sorry, I almost let my mind wander somewhere, but I'll touch back on that in a minute.
My last class that I have the opportunity of attending is US History 136. It's from the beginning of America to 1877. I have one other student in my class for that one too. She's nicer than the girl in my English class, but there's always a way to make it bad. She didn't tell her kids about the Love You Long Time concert, that personally I think would have been a good experience for anyone, so naturally she won't have a top spot in my book. It's okay, maybe someday she can redeem herself. No big deal. The class itself is pretty fun. I have a book report due monday which I'm doing on Common Sense, by Tom Paine! I have been running a train on those quizzes, so you should be happy.
Now, on to the working world, or whatever you wanna call the life of the employed. I got hired last week at Subway in Airway Heights. The first few days, they had me rocking the cash register, which I pretty much rocked the house on, so that's a good thing. I haven't operated one in over a year, but hey, I'm awesome. Last night they decided to start letting me design sandwiches. Wow, wasn't expecting that at all. Syke! I saw that they only scheduled me for three hours, and they sent me home 20 minutes early. Of course I was gonna be making sandwiches. I work tonight and tomorrow night until close, but I have Saturday night off. I have a few ideas of what I'll do...
So, back to my random thought that almost threw this whole thing out of order.. I wish there was a metro system here in Spokane. I don't think they deserve it, but for my own sake, I think it would just be great. I wrote a song about riding the metro, but it was a few years ago. I'm not really sure what reminded me of the metro, but I miss the hell out of it. I just want to hop on the metro with no destination. Just pay my fare and grab a seat, see what kinds of people I can meet, what interesting things I would see.
I'm doing quite well with myself lately, I find myself too busy to be caught up in trouble, which is a change from a year ago, where I was juggling two lifestyles. It's nice to be straight up with everyone, not live two lives and tell different people different stories. I kind of love being me again.
Love,
The Only One
