(Video) Kid Cudi Performs 2 New Songs at SSMF

Performing last night in Hollywood for the Sunset Strip Music Festival Cudi took the stage and performed two brand new tracks for the upcoming album. Hit the jump for video, photos and more.

The first song is called Ghost, here’s what he had to say about the song:

This song was one of the last couple jams I did for the album. I was really kinda goin’ threw a time where I was  lookin’ at all the shit that had happened to me the past year n a half, people I’ve met, places I’ve been, shit I’ve been gettin’ myself into and just thinking; man like whats the end point? how do I feel after all this shit, was it worth it type thing, you know? This jam is really about that and it’s called Ghost.

The second song is currently untitled but it sounds dope:
EDIT: Trapped in My Mind Produced by Dot Da Genius.

    kid cudi is one of my fav artists ever now with that being said ghost is ghost sounds horrific. the beat is annoying and the lyrics dont come together. this is the only bad kid cudi song ive heard. trapped in my mind sounds amazing though.

  • Wesley

    I’m not feelin the first song, Ghost. First song I haven’t felt from cudi in a while. Album’s still gunna be dope though.
