K.i.D CuDi hails from Cleveland, but now lives is Brooklyn and is signed to A-Trak's Fools Gold label (home to Kid Sister). This guy is high on my radar right now and I'm hoping that he comes through town for a show with the Fool's Gold crew during SXSW.
This tune 'Dat New "New"' is taken from the Day 'N' Nite EP that has gotten quite a bit of attention. With an upcoming new album called 'The Man On The Moon' this guys reminds with a bit of Lupe Fiasco. Not necessarily with his style but I think his musical maturity and understanding of melodies and lyrical structure is similar. Very interesting guy.
From a HHNLive interview with Aaron Frank.
"At the age of 15, Kid Cudi recorded his first song on a karaoke machine
in his friend’s basement. It was a freestyle over the beat to Wu-Tang
Clan’s “It's Yourz,” an undeniable hip-hop classic. From recording on a
karaoke machine in his friend’s basement in Cleveland to packing venues
all over the country with his Fools Gold cohorts, Kid Sister, A-Trak,
and the Cool Kids, Cudi is clearly living out his dream, even though
his journey to underground stardom hasn’t been an easy one.:

Just wanted to thank you, not just because the nice post, but pretty much more because my grandfather is nearly recovering from his surgery and he has almost nothing to do but staying on bed all day, his best source of entertainment has been this blog and I feel this is something good for him and his recovery.
