At 70 minutes, it certainly has cinematic length, too: "Guess I'm just a star of my movie," Cudi thinks aloud on "Mad Solar". And Michael Bolton.įactoring in all of that, Indicud has the sheen of a cinematic blockbuster.

Three years after the overstuffed Man on the Moon II and several outside dalliances- the rock/rap sideproject WZRD, a small role in HBO’s cancelled "Entourage" spin-off " How to Make it in America"- Cudi’s back with Indicud, which aims for a little bit of everything: It's an 18-song collection that features guests from the indie rock world ( HAIM, Father John Misty) as well as new-school demigods Kendrick Lamar and A$AP Rocky. When he finds the right balance- Man on the Moon II’s “Ghost!” is the best example- it can add up to an effective cocktail of blurred anguish.
And even if Cudi rarely lines it all up, his ability's evident: The music's production, which is for the most part self-generated, is usually interesting, and his fuck-the-world posturing resonates with a certain angsty personality type. Though his 2009 debut Man on the Moon and its slightly better sequel weren't exactly critical darlings, he’s been a reliable Soundscan dent-maker and the type of figure that easily inspires 379-page threads on message board and hype thermometer KanyeToThe.
