Kid CuDi - REVOFEV
Artist: Kid CuDi
Producer: Plain Pat, Strings by Larry Gold
Album: Man on the Moon II: The Legend Of Mr. Rager
Label: Universal Republic
It’s a big, big day in the Cudiverse. Much to the delight of hip-hop stoners everywhere, this morning Kid Cudi let loose of the first single off his upcoming sophomore album, Man on the Moon II: The Legend of Mr. Rager, the enigmatically titled REVOFEV. (Say it like “Rev of ev,” short for “revolution of evolution.) Sonically, REVOFEV picks up where Man on the Moon left off, with producer Plain Pat crafting an eclectically influenced, often chaotic beat, accompanied by Larry Gold’s string arrangement, that Cudi uses to drop the same slowly drawling rhymes and “whoa whoa whoa” singing style he’s made his highly successful trademark. While I can’t hear anything particularly revolutionary, or evolutionary, about the track, I’m sure Kid Cudi nation will be more than happy to pour over the lyrics for hours (perhaps assisted by their good friend THC). No official word yet on when we can expect Man on the Moon II, but it’s only a matter of time before Cudi shakes up our definition of hip-hop once again.

REVOFEV is merely an extension of Cudi's debut. If it ain't broke, don't fix it works here. This is dope.

Cant wait for the sequel. Though I feel this is too much like the songs on the first album, yet as @DJ Z says it ain't broke. I'll fux with it.

I honestly hope Man On The Moon II is very similar to his debut, which I still blast from start to finish to this day (It seems to get better with every listen).
Production is nice and CuDi uses his trademark style (as Nathan alluded to) to full effect. This is a nice buzz single to get the internet jumping in anticipation for what he has in stores for us in the coming months. |

Great record from Cudi, his first album was a critical and commercial success so I guess it makes sense to continue what worked. Can't wait for the album.

KiD CuDi's signature sound. A different form of hip hop, and that is the truth. try comparing him to any other "rapper"
dope production, dope melodies = a win for kid cudi |

This is what Cudi does so there is no point in him changing. Love the feel to it and he does a great job of making it his own.

Cudi just keeps making Cudi tracks, which should keep Cudi fans very, very happy. Not really my personal favorite, but I have to give it to the man for his original sound. Well done Scott.

For any other artist, this would seem like a odd choice for a lead single. Kid CuDi however, isn't your typical Hip Hop artist as he continues to push boundaries with his left field approach. Like most CuDi records, you almost have to give it a couple "Spins" to fully enjoy.

listening to it again, it sounds it would be track 1 on the album haha. I bet it is. It just sounds like an intro track. I just cant see this doing well on the radio. If it does, then cudi can obviously make whatever song he wants and it'll get play lol

This is classic CuDi right here, prob one of my most favourite albums of all time 'Man on the Moon'. This is just amazing, I honestly don't know what to say other than I don't want to stop listening.

Is it wrong to be a bit disappointed with this, even as a cudi fan? probably, but I feel if he tried to speak deeper then his voice is, and it sounds bad most of the track. the production is banging though, and i like the whole vibe of the song.

I liked it. Not really as a rap song....but it helps show Cudi's musicianship. He isnt a rapper. He isnt a singer. He just makes good music, and once everyone stops trying to categorize him....they will see how great he is.
