In MTV ‘s News Extended Play, Cudder admits that as of late, he’s lost his passion for laying down a full sixteen bars and plans to drop a rock album next. After the jump, he mentions he didn’t want his verse on “Christian Dior Denim Flow” and discusses his feature on My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy.

Does Cudi like anything anymore? No Wale, No rapping, No coke…. I mean really
when did he start rapping, I thought he was a crooner, and a bad one at that
this guy….
^^^ lol
hmm i was a fan…not anymore.
A rock album???
Please go back to something like “A Kid Named Cudi” or even “MOTM 1”
Good. We’re sick of him “rapping” too…truthfully I’m fuckin sick of rap PERIOD.
This guy is overrated…he never seemed to even apprecatie what he has like as far as his fame..cocky s.o.b. only ppl that listen to cudi are dopeheads and bitches who are drunk at parties…that’s it cudi music=zero substance
Kid Cudi raps? :/
RAP IS TIRED OF UR WACK ASS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
AND WHEN THE FUCK DID U EVER REALLY RAP, I MEAN REEAAALLLYYYY RAP?!?!?!?
F*CK YO COUCH SAYS FYL!!!!!!!!! (FUCK YOUR LIFE!!!!!!!!!)
shit the way hip-hop is now i’d do a rock album too….. “I ain’t mad atcha” *Pac voice*
This is a joke right? When has Mescudi ever dropped a hot 16? Anyway he can go. Go do rock, get rejected by the rock crowd, brick and try and pander to us again. Sucka.
IF EM WAS BLACK………………..!!!!
Real MC’s don’t get sick of it because their brain thinks in ryhme, methaphors flow. If I was trying to force something for so long I’d get sick of it too.
Stick to being weird, it works.
i never saw hsi album as rap anyways.
i just want him to continue that alternative music he usually makes, fuck rap.
Thank God, he gave up rapping on songs…
Mad props to Kudi for that..
i agree w/everyone here..dude isn’t a rapper
i love how everyone says he can’t rap. previews on the new album sounds like hes goin fuckin hard. Yall just wait, and he doesn’t even need to rap. hes way over yall fuckin losers who dont understand musics head. maybe its cause its a hip hop site and hes not necessarily “hip hop” but hes fucking amazing
I agree… Didn’t know he started rapping.
Thought he was a just a another MF’erusing Hip Hop as a slut. You won’t be missed Bro. Good luck
is he on coke again?
Kudos for cudi!! Great to hear he’s tired of it, we never liked his raps anyway… Real mc’s never get tired of rapping!! Will Drake follow? He got a gay ass rapvoice too!
I dont even like this dudes music, but I agree with him, Rap is pretty lame right now main-stream wise………… Either your making mindless dance music, actin like an ignorant coon, or cryin on a soap box like a 16 year old emo white girl……… pretty much all you hear on the radio now
I THINK THE DRUGS FIRING HIS BRAIN…
I guess no one can remember the On the spot freestyle on Invasion Radio with Green Lantern. Convenient amnesia? Yes, I know the procedure. Ha!
I wonder why the hell they put his verse on Christian Dior Denim Flow anyway. shit was wack
lol he sounds like hes on crack
Cuddi dont rap doe?
I’m a fan and actually have MOTM 1 but Cudi hasn’t been rapping for some time
Funny I didn’t want his verse on “Christian Dior Denim Flow” either
AHHH YES REALITY. EVERYONE CAN”T RAP!!
HE RAPS???? HA!!!! NIGGA PLEASE!!!! I DON’T EVEN CONSIDER HIM A RAPPER!!!! THIS CORNBALL IS SO FULL OF HIMSELF!!!! FUCKIN’ COKE HEAD!!!!
DON’T HATE ON MY OPINION!!!!
Thank goodness because Lord knows I’m tired of him rapping…& judging by the comments above me, yall are too lol.
how original
No, we’re tired of YOU rapping, cornball. lol
Bye already
He may not rap, but he’s dope.
Good cus nobody is buyin rap music any more anyway. All the Hiphop fans download everything. Do more of that Erase Me type shit cus fans of all music actually go out and purchase the music. Rap is gettin boring. Shoot this, bitch that, fag that, drugs this. Its gettin old.
AND NIGGAZ IS GONNA ACT LIKE LIL WAYNE DID NOT PAVE THE WAY? MANNNN THIS NIGGA LIL WAYNE IS CREATIVE AS FUCK,
HE DID REBIRTH AND NOW KID CUDDER WANTS TO DO A ROCK ALBUM… THATS WHY WAYNE IS THE GOAT
O YEA 1 WEEK LEFT……. HIP HOP ALMOST HOME!
Lil Wayne 2.0
bro…you never rapped in the first place. you put out one album with a song that sounds nothing like hip hop and you come out with a bold statement like that? go fly a kite son
IM GLAD HE SAID SOMETHING…HIM NOT RAPPING HAS BEEN KINDA LIKE THE ELEPHANT IN THE ROOM….HE CAN SPIT,..HE SHOULDN’T LOOK AT IT THAT WAY…I SWEAR CUDI STOP BITCHING MAN…WRITE SOME 16S…ITS WHAT YOU GOT SIGNED FOR…BUT I ALWAYS FELT HE WOULD BE MORE OF A HOOK GUY
do yo thing cudi, just like when wayne wanted to do the rock because he was tired of rappin I respected his mind, It’s what he wants to do and that’s what it is, if you don’t like what I’m doin fuck you I wouldn’t give a fuck.
That’s fine; I never fucked with hiatus bars, musically.
with his*
Damn autocomplete
I dont get his story yet.
@donn_stfu! Rnb, pop, country and all that other stuff u listen to has been way more stagnant.
All pop/dance/eurotech coming out is the same shit. Can even swear they’re using the same beats(someone talk to d.guetta nd redone pls).
THIS GUY HAS BEEN A CORNBALL. I DON’T UNDERSTAND HOW HE BECAME FAMOUS, HE’S FUCKIN WACK. HE FUCKED UP THE CHRISTION DIOR TRACK, AND NOW HE’S REALIZING THAT THE ROSTER AT GOOD MUSIC ACTUALLY HAVE TALENT (BESIDES BIG SEAN). CUDI GO SIT DOWN SOME WHERE AND FEEL SORRY FOR YOURSELF SOME WHERE ELSE. YOUR WAY TO ARROGANT ANYWAY. ONE YOURSELF!!!!
I FUCKIN CO-SIGN MY NIGGA F*CK YO COUCH!!!!
FUCK KID CUDI THIS NIGGA IS A FUCKIN DISGRACE TO HIM SELF AND TO HIS FANS AND HIS FAMILY!!! NIGGA NEED TO GET BACK ON THAT BLOW I HATE HIM!!!!!!!!!!
hes shot… lmao
but im looking foward to his new ish.
@RAHBLACK get real bro, go listen to sum flaka and punch urself in the face a few more times..
DAMN HE’S A GLUE SNIFFER
good..the nigga cant rap anyway lol
@zoomzoom lmao at the last comment
yes this nigga fucked up the christian dior song with that druggy coked out flow !
HA! One decent album and this guy seriously thinks he’s one of the best in the game. He never really rapped in the first place so it shouldn’t be hard to give it up and put out a wack rock album. Keep diggin that grave Cudi!
Very ungrateful cat! Sells records, lots of cross merchandising, huge fan base, and he wants to quit more than anybody i’ve ever seen in this game for such a young career! Cudi should flop, and be denied in everything he does, then he’ll appreciate what he HAD! Reason #4080 why Hip Hop has imploded!
I didnt know he rapped homie is way over rated
yo its sad but real niggaz never last when he said im doing a rock album its like what is going threw ya head nigga? ur fans are hip-hop heads gtfoh so disapointed…
daaamn cudi gay now
lol some of yall are MAD cause he dissed hip hop… its pretty bad right now tbh. LOL
SMH didnt know hate was so alive on here
These damn A.D.D rappers….sum wave this fool bye already.
And we all know why you wanna do rock music? (literally and figurative)
YOU’RE TIRED OF RAPPING?!?!? … muhfucka WE’RE TIRED OF YOU RAPPING! Stick to hitting the harmonies, Wale would eat you alive.
He raps?
No
He’s a fag?
Yes
premadona
I thought Cudi said nobody could fuck with his bars? And now he’s tired of rapping? Luckily, son ain’t no rapper in the first place. Stick to that emo shit yo…. the white girls love that.
G
Then stop you dumb lazy nigga!
What’s wrong with you, just wanna throw a little bitch fit cuz you wanna start singin or summin?? How bout you retire?
Wtf is he talking about his verse on Christian Dior Denim Flow was classic”I done heard it all baby save it for them other niggas” he snapped on that shit.
dude is trash. i’ve said it before and i’ll say it again.
he’s a stoner “rapper”. his delivery/lyrics/tone are all awful. i’ll give him his beats though…oh wait….he doesnt even make half his own beats. i
he sucks at rapping anyway thank god he came to his senses
only good at hooks #RealTalk
good nigga stop rapping
haters shake my hand but i keep the sanitizer on deck fuck every one of you faggots browsing the net to hate on the realest there has ever been why the fuck r u even checkin in on him if ur just gonna talk shit go outside try and get some pussy or smoke something do fuckin something if ur gonna hate get a fuckin job or smthn i hate each and every one of you cudi is my hero bc he is real unlike yourselves
he was spittin weak bars anyway,hes only known for his hooks.his new album is gonna flop cus theres no strong single.Last time he had Day and Night now he has nothin.whatta spit in the face of Kanye,Kanye could’ve given tht contract to someone who actually wants to do his job, and make good music not some junkie who dont even like the music smh.
Man all you commenters are bummy. Claiming rap sucks but you don’t have enough of a say when it comes to putting down an artist. Have you ever even gave Cudi a listen? Judging by the comments everyone only seems to be referring to 2 singles off Man on the Moon; ie. Pursuit of Happiness & Day N Nite. Give that album a proper spin and don’t let media exposure dictate whether or not an artist is dope.
Let’s not forget the mixtapes… Cudi’s not the best rapper at least he speaks his mind and doesn’t water shit down with fakery.
A Kid Name Cudi Mixtape
Dat Kid From Cleveland
Stone Charm Mixtape
Seriously though who cares if he’s switching his swag up. I mean he went into light weight acting on HBO’s How to make it in America. Whoever said Wanye did the first rock cut is stupid. Check your facts RUN DMC pioneered this talent before I was even born.
Cats getting mad because artist wants to make music. Expression of words is one means… expression through rhythm is another
This nigga is garbage.when did he start rappin
Werd but check me out…Zombies N Monsters
http://www.reverbnation.com/crymeakagnotes
these guys are frauds…. as soon as they get love from the otherside rap aint shit to them anymore….. let the kids who really want it get it… Cudi you are mos def the man on the moon cuz you out there bruh.
THIS HAS TO BE DEJA VU CAUSE I REMEMBER WHEN HE SAID HE WANTED TO DO THIS THE FIRST TIME
FIRST OF ALL THIS NICCUH IS A ONE HIT WONDER ANYTHING HE HAS RELEASED SINCE THEN HAS BEEN CRAP SO IF YOUR GONNA RETIRE PLEASE DO US ALL A FAVOR AND FINALLY DO IT FOR GOOD
He never really fit in the niche. Guy got popular by appealing to emo kids. His first album was the most overrated thing I’ve heard in recent times. He’s unique and whatnot, but he’s off genre and not really in a good way, IMO.
I wouldn’t consider Kid Cudi a rapper. At least with the songs that I’ve heard, he’s a hybrid – a singer, albeit not well, that raps.
As for the Rock album, I think all recording artists should try a different genre at least once.. You should always try to push yourself and expand your horizons musically.
Terrible decision, thought it was weird he sang most shit when I saw him in concert, his voice sucks ass. Should stick to rapping, can actually stand listening to that.
Hopefully his rock album will be better than Rebirth though, all I care about!
Cudis album leaked! http://www.mediafire.com/?s5pbjctw3pslhbu
thank me later
So apparently he has been tired of rapping since before his first album. Because that nigga don’t rap! Or sing well for that matter
Wow, can’t believe he wouldn’t want his verse on Christian Dior Denim Flow.
It was so good that I edited it out of the song on my itunes.
what is clear to me is most of us don’t bother to actually watch the videos.
we just read the headline then comment.
honestly. admit it. i actually watched the videos and he didn’t say ONE offensive or arrogant thing. you guys just are getting fooled by the shock-headlines.
the headlines are designed to get an emotional reaction out of you; create drama. his answers were very tame; he said essentially that right now he gets most of his passion out of singing more than writing 16-bar rap verses. big deal.
and i’m not even some cudi fan or defender. i think he doesn’t really “rap” by our hip-hop lyricism standards, anyway. he’s more like a hipster nelly or a hipster flo-rida. so what? i let him live. who gives a shit about genres anyway? not me.
yo big ups cudi. the new album is so dope
damn. bruh just as u were getting G.O.O.D! haha stop switchin’ but i am and always still be a fan. as long as ur stay tru to yoself kid. wayy to make a grown up decision on da real bruh. unlike these other lames. ~ B.W.
What the fuck ?
Cudi was one of the realest in the game !
Thats some bull, gahh damn .
& rock aint for yu booboo,
There is a God!!!!

good, you can do some fuckin punk rock for all I care.
no one givs a fuck
I’m glad he’s tired of rap, dude is whack
You’ve been TEACHING YOURSELF guitar for TWO MONTHS, and now you’re coming out with a ROCK ALBUM!!?? FOH –_____–
I blame lil wayne.
Ya’ll can shut the fuck up! stop hattin on cudi, he does what he does because he loves it, and since he has lost the passion for it, he isn’t going to drag us along on something that he is no longer passionate for. Have any of you heard any of his albums..? he goes HARD and he is a rapper, just because he loves marijuana doesn’t mean that the only people who listen to him are potheads, people judge him just because they don’t know who he is or where he comes from, Cudi’s lyrics are some of the best i’ve heard, and i don’t expect anything less from his rock album. Good luck cudder, the game is worse off without you
Cudi is the best thing that has happened to the hip hop/rap industry in a long time… and now that he’s leaving, the game is going to be so much worse off. Yes he does marijuana, so do many many people in the world, but just because he does doesn’t mean that the only people who listen to him are potheads, he loved rapping, and now that he doesn’t love it anymore, he’s not going to drag us along on something that he is not passionate about. cudi can go hard!!!! so for all of those out there who hink he can’t, maybe you should listen to one of his records… good luck to you cudder, all these haters are going to realize how much they miss you once your really gone, i’m looking forward to you makin a big splash on the rock scene!! good luck cudi, we’ll miss you
Give him a fuckin break, this guy can rap, sing, and do whatever he wants. As long as hes making it in the industry(which he is) then who gives a shit. Even if his “rock” album doesnt make money, hes probobly having a great time making it and he is still getting rich off his previous albums.
Fuck all yall haters, FUCK ALL YALL. Cudi is the real shit these days, not lil wayne or fuckin drake trey songz b.o.b. shit. what the fuck are they about? Gettin money and fuckin bitches. They can relate, but not everyone in fuckin america cares about what they spit. Cudi raps about REAL SHIT not fuckin gettin out of jail to get back in. Yea lil wayne is a dumbass that cant stay outta trouble and makes shit music that’s autotuned the fuck out. No talent. So fuck yall cudi haters suck my cocks bitchezzzz
I don’t care what y’all say. Erase me was dope. If that what his rock gonna be then good for him. Fuck all ya haters.
i kinda feel him when he says he can’t get fulfillment from writing 16s any more… i kinda know what he means by that.
its funny how many people dont know what good music is…just because kid cudi didnt do that gay as gangser rap that all sounds the same..kid cudi actually did rap…just because you fags heard a couple of his songs you gotta judge him on his mainstream shit….if you would stop being so judgemental and actually sat down and listened to some of his music you would think otherwise…unless your into that mainstream shit thug rap ..then just fuck off cuz you dont know real music..
1) you dont have to say he isnt lyrical, he knows that. heck he even said himself in an interview.
2) not just “potheads and drunk bitches” listen to his music. your a ignorant dumbass if you think that.
3) Do any of you listen to his lyrics? do you here the message that he is trying to get through.
4) I wouldnt say he is a rapper either but he def brings something to the music world that is on a whole other level. so you might think he isnt the best rapper artist but atleast his songs have meaning. He is one of the best artist right now along with B.O.B and Little Lu(Lupe Fisaco),etc.
5) While I am also a big eminem fan. his new shit just plain out suck ass. no offense to eminem. I loved his old stuff. His life has changed but he can still rap with meaning. just some of my thoughts.

I’d have to test with you here. Which isn’t something I often do! I enjoy reading a put up that can make folks think. Additionally, thanks for allowing me to remark!
kid cudi’s a boss, people are just haters.
youre all trippin.. MOTM 1 was a legendary album
i fallow cudi no matter what hes doing but i do agree he was better when laying out some deep meaning raps instead of his rock stuff……. But i still love cudi no matter what he wants to do!!!
thanks for your great post and advice. i think this will be great instruction for ourself and familys.
