    SHAME ON KID CUDI! This video is a BLATANT ripoff of Hey Champ’s “Cold Dust Girl” video. So much so that I think he deserves to be sued!!!!!!

  • Freurys

  • ryan

    Freurys, sure it’s a good video but did you watch Hey Champ’s video for “ColD Dust Girl” which came out in 2008? KID CUDI RIPPED THEM OFF!! Here’s the proof:

    Who Cares Rayan!! Cudi or the director of this video probably dosent even know about “Cold Dust Girl” Im sure they didn’t really try to copy it. coincidences happen every day. Knock it off. If you’re gonna hate get off his Website!!!!!!

    Kelsey- it’s called artistic property, and infringing on it should result in a lawsuit.

    And by the way, Hey Champ is ALSO from Chicago, opened for Kid Cudi in Portland a couple nights ago, and were signed by Lupe Fiasco (mutual friends). Cudi DEFINITELY knows about Hey Champ and I guarantee you he has seen the video.

    F*** Kid Cudi! I only hate when it’s well-deserved.

  • Kelsey

    Once again “WHO CARES” are you a lawyer or somthing? I’m sure Cudi knew exactly what he was doing so leave it be.

  • Edgar

    Terrible video, this just shows how even Cudi gave into what mainstream hiphop wants (Partying, DRINKING, BOOBS). i thought his album was creative, but this shit isn’t. extremely disappointed and I’m A HUGE FAN OF CUDI.

  • Nicole

    I completely agree with Edgar. Disappointed.

  • Andyy

    Whats wrong with you people?
    The video is ‘similar’ to cold dust girl not the same. Why do you need to come on this site and hate? Its a cudi fan site.
    The video is dope.
    The song is dope.
    And anyone in the loop knows you can be mainstream and still be real to yourself.
    Which is exactly what cudi is.
    Keep up the good work Cudder!

  • sdfsd

    Am I the onnly one who thinks Cudder ripped off some ideas from “We Were Once A Fairytale”? Especially the ending

  • Kelsey

    Andy couldn’t have said it better!!!! I love Cudder

  • http://N/A JAZZMAN

    A fan of Cudi’s but this is bull sh_t. Looks like Jaimie Fox’s wack ass “Blame it” video. All you needed was Ron Howard at the party. Are you serious with this ? Thought you were pushing it to a new creative level Cudi. Disappointing… Someone should auto-tune this, it would make more sense.

  • Ashleigh

    We want more Cudi!!!
