Kid Cudi speaks why he doesn't like hip hop! claims one of the Top 5

[musicsk8lovereapeat]

Kid cudi is so open and i love how he just says what he feels, and he likes band of i have so much respect for him

[jokingBo1]

He was right when he said Drake

[omardipset]

kid cudi has got his kanye on in this interview. just his music aint that nice

[22yankev]

@omardipset Music is more than just the audio tunes you hear. Ya, his music, SO FAR, probably attracts more stoners than anyone, but he is not about getting on the radio. His lyrics are poetry. He focuses on what matters in life, as opposed to "how much cash your stackin".

[BloodySunnday]

Kid Cudi = real.

[anotherstreetskater]

suchh a cooll ass dude. much respect,

[Supremed9]

He does have a point. Just litsen to what guys like Soulja and Wiz are "rapping" about, look at what message they are spreading. It's Bullshit.

[streetmischiefkids]

Cudi is obe of the dopest artists hands down

[Breonna164]

I'm in love with is vocabulary .

[fqknstaro6]

Cudi ^

[stekuya11]

[MrWannabesuperhero]

[qnthomas]

[Jetr5115]

[JERMAN67]

shout out to the DMV and those who listen to 93.9 and go to the 9;30club

[DJPolair]

every rapper on radio shows is some dude in the back

[CuDiRaGeAllDaY]

Haters gon hate. People like his music so fuck off!

[GamersNetworkTv]

hip hop was once about da lyrical content now its about if u wearin jordans and skinny jeans



[vampXr33pr]

You know what im saying you know what I'm saying, the fuck up maricon

[JumpmanAlan23]

@vampXr33pr I think the maricon is you with a username as vamXr33pr xD

[lotsabored]

you know what I'm sayin?

[Sileni]

This Kid Cudi is the downlow of homosexuals trying to manipulate the mindset of blacks from the inside out but nothing speaks to me about rebelliousness or conscious hip-hop!

I see why Sean Price said cut your ears off.

[EtchedSketch]

@Sileni I don't really like him as a person or think any higher of him after this interview, but your opinion is ridiculous and you should never expect to be taken seriously by anyone, ever.

[MegaOmar48]

Im the Lone wolf i go where i wanna.

[lilrain3000]

Yes, i know what your saying!

[toocoolforaname1]

i love wat hes saying too bad i dont really like his music :(

[KewkehMonstuh]

@toocoolforaname1 FUCK YOU

[SonOfTheBug]

@beoneOone lol "faget", Learn how to spell.

[jamesposs]

Cudi is RIGHT. Who cares the way a hip hop artist dresses. Idc. I love the music. Shit.. I wear vans and and whiskered jeans and atleast a V-neck almost every now and then. And ladies still love me. Ha

[Sileni]

@jamesposs They care because its been perpretrated by both MTV and Music Industry to bait those who were locked up in jail or sold crack etc...isn't gangsta image!

People have become vastly aware after President Obama became president, tight jeans is a lame rehash of the 1980's - I hated that tight shit back then and now after turning 30 yrs old - also, people like Mos Def, Talib Kwali, Common etc spent 3 decades to send a positive message is eroded with heavy overtones of homosexuality!

[Gowatch3kb]

U know what im sayin?

[kevthekid41]

i have been enlightened

[daryltd1]

6 minutes of wisdom

[mrsnapman1]

Kid cudi interviews like haters gona hate... You know what I'm saying

[Thebadbrain1000]

[elpelli25]

you know what i'm saying!!

[PimpingRice]

I just see a whole new level and respect for Kid Cudi. He forgot to mention Lupe Fiasco you know what I mean?

[LittleMissCooper]

Wtf? Drake? I'm confused. I thought he was supposed to be naming talented people, not ugly retards.

[AxeheaveR]

Drake? why did he include him, that dude is fake as fuck.....dude was raised corporate, it's always gonna be money before music with him.

[Chinasawr]

@AxeheaveR but this was in 09', when he was a freshmen, a new face. just unfortunate drake turned out the way he did today.. -.-

[KLuTzTHeFreeMind]

no, I know what you sayin'.. but you know what i'm sayin?

[hector4930]

drake lil wayne the whole young money and gucci maine Fake !!!!



[P0PPASMOKE]

Cudi is just such a positive role model

[iamretartedlol]

@P0PPASMOKE hes a blueprint

[P0PPASMOKE]

@iamretartedlol I dont know what you mean by that, I'm fucking retarded

[yeski]

"you know what I'm saying?"

[Blaze936]

I didn't think I could like Cudi anymore, but after this video I surely do.

[JimbrowskiEarned]

sooo fukin truee! 90% of cudis fans like him cause he can dress his ass of.

[colefam88]

wuts up dark skin den!

[SixString0rchestra]

HAHAHA... only thing he's saying is posing a question what do we Love about Hip Hop. After 5 minutes of intelectual mumbo jumbo. Anycase, the man knows what he's talkin about. If he also walks the walk he's going to be a promising artist.

[merrimanrocks]

#RealTalk

[TheFlawlessMotions]

you know what im sayin. HELL YEAH

[LittleMissCooper]

I love this man. I love him for being from Ohio my home state and I love him even more for loving Band of Horses. His music is genius.

[markysaoy]

Many people have been blinded by the mainstream Hip-hop...shit i won;t even call it hip hop ..that is how bad it is to me... i learned the roots of hip hop is from bboying...from that i learned the knowledge the roots and began to think open mindingly of hip hop today......

[DoubleA023]

yuall see how that nigga looking in the grey shirt? lmfao

[EBBsk8Norge]

Real

[SooWoopKiillaH]

you know what im sayin'??

[TheXdiversionzX]

Did someone steal this dude in the back's chicken?

[ButteryAssAbel]

hip hop is based around ego. thats what he meant to say.

[xXxDKWNxXx]

I think I know what he's saying.

[9471919]

its not about glitz and glamour its about the music

[crazeyskill]

kid cudi

[D4KINE808]

this guy is super respectful

[rap33r100]

lol guy next to him giving him a bad stare

[PBJTASTIC]

@rap33r100 hahah yea. thats actually his friend.

[peckerslap20]

that guy in the backround needs to get punched

[redeem72]

this guy is cool he's calling all these fake rappers out...he's making them look bad..calling all of them on their bullshit fakeness..hahaha..go kudi

[MrSaer2]

@redeem72 you comment was so good until you spelled Cudi wrong . lol js.

[123435454646453434]

@MrSaer2 he was saying Kid CUDI in short form. KUDI

[MrSaer2]

@123435454646453434 lol your stupid . no one shortens it like that. why change "Cudi" to "Kudi" if its spelled out already with a C. no point of switching to the K just because of "Kid".

[Captainfruity]

Holy shit, the guy beside him looks pisssssssed.

It's rather frightening.

[InfamousAct]

wait someone tell me what is he "sayin"? whats the message?

[IndieeLovee37]

@InfamousAct ahahahahaha, oh i knowww. He said "you know what im sayin?" atleast 300 times. hahaha gotta love him :)

[dannybigblahze]

he's not one of the top 5 he's the only one

[mcesavage]

black ppl look good in gold



[nativepeacemaker]

CuDi's the man

[Panger94]

cudi's a dick

[GreenLjSwag]

@Panger94 vote down

[SidsMusicUk]

big up cudi

[drsicksmalls]

asher roth is badass!!!

[bobclues2]

bitch hes high thats why he wearing glasses

[Demonboi9]

You know, Kid Cudi is pretty mainstream himself. He also looks pretty "glitz and glammy" himself. No offense to him, I love his music and they have great messages, but who wears sunglasses indoors? He is a great artist, but he's being a bit arrogant.

[drsicksmalls]

@Demonboi9 look at bobclues2 comment then stfu

[drsicksmalls]

@Demonboi9 look at bobclues2 comment then stfu

[ArmyStrong95]

@Demonboi9 i think the difference is, most rappers wear those glasses cuz theyre tryna put on this act when kid cudi wears those glasses its cuz he wants to, nothing else

[AnOmiCKs]

Yes Cudi, I know what youre SAYING.

[XxDaNiiiMaLxX]

Cudi's the realest mother f*cker out there. The REALEST

[ItalianStalian99]

He's so right tho. I mean look Wale is mainstream now

[NardDawg131]

Cudi went to Band of Horses?? That's sick. Kid Cudi down with indie music that's one of the reasons he's so good. He likes everything and isn't a bitch about liking other genres.

[youngfreezy328]

i love this guyy

[zacsodmg]

Even if kudi don't rap he can still rap it doesn't need to be abou pussy or money or anything I herd his freestyles he good better then good kudi can become the new will smith in the rap gam kudi u don't even know

[nineteenct]

When Wiz gets high, all he talks about is how high he is. When Cudi gets high, he comes up with masterpieces

[soFlyliKag6]

you know he's high

[MrRandomVideosguy]

I LOVE KID CUDI HIS MUSIC IS DOPE REALLY CHANGED MY LIFE AROUND THANKS KID CUDI

[MikaelaSloanJones]

And this is why Cudi is in my top 5 i love him :) he's too real

[bently103]

I love cudi but lupe spits the most knowledge

[dosavian]

Love the message. I've been wearing whatever I want as long as its comfortable for quite some time (though its not a good idea to do this while jobsearching) pyjamas 24/7 ftw. If it doesn't make my music sound terrible why should I stop.

[Myelement2110]

in my opinion cudi is no.1 in mainstream

[THEmoodyKID]

i just walk around naked.

[ciibah]

Yeah, I know what u sayin' Cud

[OfficialLos]

Kid cudi is that dude!

[TheWetNomadXD]

that guy behind cudi looks like he wants to slap him XD

[1800IDNTGIVEAFUK]

he said this now and Wale is up there now lol

[Wolveslune]

Cudi is more realistic outta allll mf "rappers" today <3

[Waffles827]

what other rapper would give props to band of horses

[joshuaprescott0]

@Waffles827 Me

[JacobJones6240]

my mans next to him looks like ben gordan

[tolololin]

I dont think drake can be the cure to hip hop

[Shnotz45]

Band of horses is amazing

[popadoppp]

he said it himself, Infecting peoples' brains with knowledge.

[siriuship]

drakes lyrics are like takin pics on the mirror... know wha im sayin?

[siriuship]

Yep Cudi, this madness makes you look great!

[EastEZ82]

Why does that nigga next to.him look that dumb.

[greyhallow31]

Totaly agree with him

[CarlChub]

Love this guy.

Truly about the music.

[artemiodesantiago]

TOP 1 FOR ME!

[Cyantifique]

@artemiodesantiago I Totally Agree!

[ShooobyBrah]

Wow I just want to chill with this Kid. No pun intended :P

[MusicMaster509]

i am all for cudi, but shiit, sounded to me like he was relating hip hop to that whack ass mainstream rap.. its all good tho cudi, real hip hop wants to remain hidden, and all the artists i listen to are saying meaningful shit, or just killin it on the mic, but not one of em talks about money an bitches... i just figured id give real hip hop some credit and im not tryin to rag on cudi or anything like that, anyways get at me if you need some good music :)

[neli308]

He is so real. So down to earth. Doesn't give a fuck, TRULY doesn't. It's just hard to find someone who isn't a poser. His music is so unique.

[skateboardinpjdj]

The Guyy Said What Don't U Like About Hip-Hop Kid Cudi Nevaa Said he Dosent Like Hip-Hop Smhh @ Misleading Title

[sk8skiboard3]

cudis a tank, and knows whats up when it comes to rollin to the beat of your own drum, if a brotha dont like ya steez tell him bugg of your N.U.TZ

[xXCHICAGO71Xx]

I do listen to other hip-hop artists but i don't limit myself to a specific genre.

back to the issue, i don't like how other artists like wayne gucci ect, make it seem like killing and overall crime is "cool and ok". Kid Cudi sings what he feels and what he things in general! Long live da KID!

[AIKMMCC]

Cudi you are not top five, you are easily the greatest rapper to ever live...PERIOD

[ashinthakush]

cudi, i do know what youre sayin

[HighdrateGB]

cudi has more swag then half these mainstream lames imho

[papercutpaige]

@HighdrateGB eh, the actual definition of swag is to be conceited.

I know what your saying, but I think it's more like cudi doesn't have their amount of swag, which is actually a way better thing.

[Supremee022]

@HighdrateGB you right. :)

[FLOOD504]

@HighdrateGB At least you admit you're a ho.

[freshprinceofsd]

@HighdrateGB did you not understand the point of this wholevideo? its not about the swag... and quit saying mainstream you sound like an idiot.

[G6B5Militia]

love kid cudi to death but didnt he do a song with vado &cameron

[TheRealFamousKid]

Curren$y

[MrHolly14Wood]

Hands down Cudi is the truth, I'm talking the real shit man. He pours his heart out. He's my favorite artist

[6Wild0Style2Phx]

Real shit cudi....Tell all these fake nowaday rappers whtz up

[kfreshify]

i love love scott <3

[RadioactiveBboy]

Nonono people getting it mixed up. Yall gotta understand that it's TODAYs hip hop which shouldn't be called hip hop at all actually thats terrible. And I love that kid cudi is different hes my fav artist.

[Streetlights10]

So TALENTED!!!!!!!

[GORILLAMAFIA17]

If you really listen to his songs then youll understand that he is one of the top 5 artist sayin some real shit. Listen up and you might learn something.

[minniec93]

Kid Cudi-3 Real ass dude I LOVE his music so damn much

[Balla4life3]

Easily top 5, KID CUDI is the SHIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[innocencefaded2112]

Why are rappers always so arrogant? Top 5? Not a chance pal. I could name 100 guys that have better lyrics than this guy, and what's more, they don't brag about it.

[Bigmarsh713]

I would say that Cudi is definitely in the top 1 one rappers rapping about real shit

[superwiicrazy]

hiphop = fake fuck genre

[scrispy12]

"if your a kid cudi fan, you should kill yourself" -sean price, a real rapper

[SalvageMuzikk]

@scrispy12 LMFAO nigga who the fuck is sean price? ahahahhaha smh I RAGE fuck haters cause cudi's on his grind and doing shit people can relate to smh

[iamjordandavoll]

woah i'm listening to The Prayer right now, haha

[okoyum]

high as a mother fucker.. definitely one of the top 5 highest mother fuckers today

[WICKEDONE94086]

Real words from a real artist young people seem to stupid to recognize a real artist

[ScoSkier17]

He claims he's in the top five of best singers and he's right

[M3gaBouncyBall]

He says "You know wat i'm saying" jus as much as Eminem :O

[lifprasir]

I actually don't know what is he saying....

[chavo2k7]

Man if cudi made a song with lupe ide go crazy

[weetoddtv]

every time he says youknow what im sayin take a drink

[thekushalian]

To all those people that r sayin shit. Just give it up cuz kid cudi is one of the best out there in that type of music. All these rappers curse and dont even have a good vocabulary and even if they do its not that good. Kid cudi has one of the best vocabulary and dosnt need to curse just to make his song "cool" or "sound good". He does it through intellegance.

[jordangross123]

Everyday this guy amazes me, I never even met him, And til this day he still Knocks me off my feet!

[DjBatawi]

you know what i'm sayin?

[jnwpse]

@DjBatawi Nah, its yom sain?

[ItalianHops24]

@DjBatawi hahahahah i just realized

[rawnotion22]

I'm nigga u dnt go that hard lyrically. So wtf is he talking about. J. Cole hardest new dude to come out and go mainstream in a while

[blaineasbury]

@TheEddiebx I'm not worried about offending anyone, and yes "saying something" means SOMETHING.

He has a message, he has a focus, he has intent, he may be trying to change something. Rather than just rapping about his possessions or the bitches that he fucks. I know this reply is a year late, but I don't use youtube that much.

[rbhammond]

good point...but the hypocrisy is how he calls out judgement about "how fly you are" and then he turns around and says "and their music sucks" It's almost as if he doesn't realize that he's got the judgement bug as well....

[mikejpete]

@rbhammond music should be judged on musical merit and originality though

[JoiDior]

Who the fuck was the guy looking upset in the corner? Lol, they should have cropped him out.

[adilbabar271996]

tooooo fuckin true no smoke still swaggin I love kid Cudi we were what we want

[graduation911]

His swag changed now that he no longer smokes lol

[jn010jn]

@graduation911 how so

[bluesun1989]

Why you countin' my "you know what I'm sayin"

[liltone122]

do you know what im sayin?

[matinthehat1]

a genius... this guy knows it.

[ThisNiggaTone]

cudi must be dumb top 5 artist.? hell no. his music honestly just is a replica of kanye's 808's man. i dont fk with Cudi.
