Since the record caught on in late ‘08, it’s been virtually impossible to walk into a club, concert, or sporting event without hearing Kevin Rudolf‘s Let It Rock blaring over the loudspeakers (it got my vote for Best Crossover of ‘08).  As if that wasn’t history enough, his debut album, In The City, was the first album not by any Big Tymers, Hot Boys, or Teena Marie to be released by Cash Money since Boo & Gotti’s Perfect Timing dropped back in ‘03.  Now, Rudolf’s released a new version of his previously-featured Welcome to the World.  While the original cut saw Rick Ross contributing a guest verse, the revamped single version features a up-and-coming MC who retired and unretired last week. When Kid CuDi hears his ex complain about life since she left him, the rapper responds, “What did you expect?”  Whether you prefer the Boss’ guest verse or the Kid’s, you can’t deny that this version of Welcome to the World will hype up the crowd just as much as its predecessor.  ‘Till next time, rock on, Booth!

Kid CuDi guest feature > Rick Ross guest feature.

Amazingly, Rudolf has only two hits on his whole album. You heard the first hit plenty... this is the second. Enjoy... while it lasts.

i have to disagree with you Z. because there's been a couple good songs from him and i dont think this is one of them. "in the city" and "NYC" were way better than this song. but hey, its all opinion.
not to mention he has alot of good songs that arent even ON the album.

Nothin but pop garbage to me. Sounds like it could get big like "let it rock," but its sounds pretty lame to me. I hope everyone realizes, and I'm sure they do, that this is in NO way rock music. He's not even singing very well, which only works in rock music with a solid musical background. Just my opinion, but a really lame, boring track here.

I feel like Kevin Rudolf should have a new name, and it will be dubbed Monotonous. Cudi is nasty, and I can't wait for the Spring/Summer of some very anticipated albums

all this dude stuff sounds the same, like dude learned one riff and plays it on every song and cudi is the wackest out of the new class of emcees

the Kid Cudi feature is definitely better then Rick Ross's. Though overall, i aint a fan of this song.

Im not a fan of NYC either.

I think Rudolf will find himself in the one hit wonder category somehow.

First of all, let me say this: Kid Cudi is an aritst...not just an emcee. He's one of the dopest and most innovative artists that the industry has seen possibly since Kanye West (with the exception of Kanye West). So I just thought we'd get that out the way right now.

This wasn't his best verse, but it was decent nevertheless. I've never got down with this Kevin Rudolf cat. He's kinda wack. The production was rudimentary and the only thing that intrigued me about his part was the two-word interpolation of Nirvana's classic "Smells Like Teen Spirit". I'm almost compelled to wonder why Cudi got on this low-grade track. But hey, any exposure is good exposure I guess...not to mention the dividends for the featuring. But still.

I heard the original version on the radio and it didnt like it that much. Kid Cudi is aight, but not his best. It took me a while to realize i liked let it rock so maybe its the same thing but for now, only OK

I liked the original so the only thing I will base my rating on is Kid CuDi's verse. His was as good, if not better, than Ross's. Four stars.

Kevin Rudolf did his usual. CuDi is very innovative rapper (like what MH said). I think I will be the first person to say that the production was more than decent

I was thinking Kevin Rudolf's songs sound all the same, but this one is particularly energetic. I love the hook, I'm feeling like jumping over the chair listening to this! Good work, Kevin!

You guys are wack. Kid CuDi took what was a great verse from Rick Ross and just ruined it. I will continue to listen to Rick Ross' verse and will not be persuaded.
