Kid Cudi went from mixtape phenom to the upper echelons of the Billboard albums chart in little over a year, so it’s no surprise he wants to keep the ball rolling. What is a surprise is who he wants to keep it rolling with.
We already know he’s hard at work on projects with rapper Chip Tha Ripper and Brooklyn electro duo Ratatat, but backstage at this past weekend’s Ulalume Music Festival in Columbia, Maryland, he revealed details of another album, a compilation disc he’s dubbed Cudder. And he’s aiming extra high on this one.
“Cudder is basically an album of me working with artists that have inspired me or artists that have helped me grow and people who I’ve always admired,” Cudi said. “So far, we’ve got Snoop, Travis Barker — trying to get Green Day onboard, hopefully, Kings of Leon, hopefully. I’m really trying to do all the collabs that I couldn’t do for the [Man on the Moon] album, and then some, because the album was so themed that I had to strip a lot of features. We’re going to have the Clipse on this compilation, Robin Thicke, hopefully we’re going to get in the studio, I just did a record for his upcoming album; it’s amazing.”
Cudi said he’s aiming to have Cudder out by “summertime at the latest,” and while the idea of him working with, say, Billie Joe Armstrong might seem a bit odd, he points to Moon tracks like “Pursuit of Happiness” (his collaboration with Ratatat and MGMT) as proof that he can pull it off and as a possible preview of how the song might turn out.
“On the Ratatat song, you can hear Ratatat and you can hear me; we don’t compromise each other. That’s the same thing I want to do with anybody I work with. … I don’t want it to be, like, a Green Day song with me rapping over it,” he said. “What I want to do is, have the triangle effect. Have Green Day involved and have them co-produce with someone like a Ratatat or my producers, do like a joint thing, and then we all create from the ground up. That way, it’s like a fusion of each sound and each inspiration.”

Hope he works with The Neptunes/N.E.R.D. on this one.
DOPE! I feel like I’m going to buy everything he ever puts out, only other artist I’ve done that for is Nas..
It’s all about the hustle and doing things that have never been done before. Cudi is a genious in that sense.
Cudi, do work with Empire of the sun boys. 8D
All I need in life is a Cudi & Cee-lo collaboration… ok, I’m exaggerating… but that would make me soooo happy! Lol.
It’s funny, I prefered his a Kid Named Cudi mixtape over the album..even though I never physically OWNED the mixtape. I cannot wait for the album with Chip!!!
Dude, the thought of cudder + the clipse just made my head explode.
Like the characters head within the first 10 minutes into the movie Scanners Wow?? I watched that yesterday in class, and could not help but notice the style. Very much like Cudi’s!
Wait a minute..that should be A Kid Named Cudi. A*
