Kid Cudi's Album Got Leaked

Kid Cudi's album got leaked last night [ironically on a full moon]. Legally I cant tell you all to download copy-written material, nor can I post a link to it. I will say that Cudi's album is pretty decent. My favorite song off the record is "Heart of a Lion" hands down! I need to meditate on it some more to judge the lyrical content [he did go deep on some of these songs]. I might actually buy it when it comes out next week. Cudi surprised me by releasing a concept album that actually has a good story line. The best part is that this story is narrated by Chicago rapper Common. What really intrigues me is the thought of what this guy will sound like in five years. After reneging on a promise to retire after his first solo project we can only hope that Cudi lasts that long lol.

"Oh shit my album got leaked lol oh well. Enjoy yall :)" - via Kid Cudi's twitter.

An Open Letter To Trey Songz's Fans

Dear Trey Songz Fans,

I'm truly sorry if the following letter angers or offends you in any way. In an attempt not to appear to be a hater, I will not straight rag on Trey Songz's new album, "Ready". Instead I will give an honest review of what I felt after listening.
First and foremost, the only song that stood out to me after listening the first time was "LOL :)", and that was only because of the off the wall collaboration with Soulja Boy. After a second attempt to listen to it "Jupiter Love" stood out a bit more. But, the fact of the matter is that this album is nothing special. I couldn't listen to it the second time all the way through. Not because its terrible, but because its simply mediocre. After hyping this album for the better half of this year, Trey Songz has failed to deliver amazing material. He does try to go for more of an edgy, rock R&B sound on some songs such as "One Love" and "Black Roses", but it doesn't quite push the genre anywhere. Keep in mind that I'm a guy that actually does listen to various genres of music. I cant listen to an amazing album from Radiohead, Kanye West, Bjork, Black Eyed Peas, and Amy Winehouse and then listen to mediocre work and appreciate it. I know the preceding artists are all in different colors on the musical spectrum, but as the saying goes, "real recognizes real" [if that makes any sense]. Even as I write this letter, I wonder, what separates Trey from the average run-of-the-mill R&B artist? His vocal abilities and arrangements are EXTREMELY reminiscent of R.Kelly, he doesn't produce any of his own music [which makes him dependent on the abilities of others], and he doesn't come off as a musical genius at all. To me, a great album is one that I can listen to for three days straight and still like it enough to listen to it again the next week. I'm sorry if you don't agree, but "Ready" is not an album that I will be listening to next week. Furthermore, another thing that turns me off is the fact that Trey only finished recording this album several weeks ago. In my opinion, an artist should record a lot, take a break, reflect on their creation obsessively, and then tweak it before releasing it. I'm not going to tell anyone not to buy this album, I just want you all to listen to it and come to your own conclusions. Especially you female fans. Would you really go so hard for Trey Songz if you thought he was ugly? Trey probably wonders the same thing. After all, check the album cover!

Your favorite N*E*R*D,
malik|alexander
