Kid Cudi hit the big time in 2009 with the release of his debut album Man on the Moon: The End of Day. It shot to the Top 5 in the US Billboard 200 and spawned the hit singles Day ‘n’ Nite, Make Her Stay and Pursuit of Happiness. Now he’s hit the top of the charts again – courtesy of the fashion magazine Elle.
The Elle 25 is a list compiled the mag of what its staff are most looking forward to before the end of 2010 – and Kid Cudi’s new album topped the list! The staff were given a preview of Man on the Moon II: The Legend of Mr. Rager, which is set for release in October, and gave it glowing reviews. “A sophomore effort that up-stages his first” wrote one staffer, “with booming choruses, raging electro beats, and a rock-rooted single, Erase Me, which features that other hypercool skinny-jean-clad rapper, Kanye West.”
Two singles from the album, Wylin’ Cause I’m Young and Mr. Rager, have recently been leaked online.
