G.O.O.D. Music affiliate Mike Dean recently dished on working with hip-hop artist Kid Cudi on a long-awaited new solo studio album.
According to Dean, Cudder is back to spitting bars on the upcoming release.
“We spent a couple of weeks in L.A. just working on songs for him. “The Frequency” came out of that. We’ve got a good part of an album started. He’s rapping again, which is really dope. Back to his essence. We both had birthdays in the studio last month and we were both together on both birthdays, so it was a cool time. He would just jump on the mic and make a song in like five minutes.” (Billboard)
Rocker Travis Barker recently revealed Andre 3000 had hooked up with Cudi.
Barker mentioned that he ran into Andre 3000 (who embarrassed him by bowing down in honor of the drummer) at the second weekend of Coachella. The OutKast rapper not only suggested they get together and record, but also mentioned that he had been in the studio with Kid Cudi a few months ago and was in California to listen to the tracks. Travis described another time when he hit the studio with Cudi and the MC didn’t even rap, but instead played some mean guitar. (Billboard)
Kid scared fans last month after announcing new album release plans and also hinting at having suicidal thoughts on Twitter.
Back in February, Cudi clocked in studio time with G.O.O.D. Music boss Kanye West.
We’re still processing The Life Of Pablo, but Kanye West isn’t waiting for any of us to catch up. He has already begun work on his next album, presently named Turbo Grafx 16 and due this summer. West appeared on Instagram alongside long time collaborators Kid Cudi, Mike Dean and Plain Pat with the caption “Turbo Grafx 16 Day 1”. (FACT Mag)
