This was released around the time when he came out of his cocaine addiction so i'm assuming that the cudi with brown jacket represents his cocaine addiction, and the building represents himself or his mind trying to fight it until he (cudi with black jacket) gets out of it when he kills the other cudi.
All of the people are supposed to be his inner demons. He's fighting them all, and winning, but in the end he couldn't defeat his worst demon: himself. Mr. Rager is supposed to be an extension of him, a part of him that wants to take over and consume him with anger and hatred. His self-destructive side, more or less.
All of the people represent the issues he must face throughout his life and how sometimes they bring him down but he always gets back up and never stops fighting. Kid Cudi himself is the guy who breaks the chain and all that and Mr. Rager is the one who kills him at the end and takes over his life, the "bad" side of Kid Cudi. That's my theory.
@FA1S3TT0 I agree about the combatants being issues in his life but I felt as though Mr. Rager was the one fighting his way through them. From the calm and peaceful look on the killer's face I thought that would be his good side eliminating the part of him, The Rager, that endured so much struggle and self-hatred. And sending him on his "way to heaven." That's how I like to interpret it, anyway.
@FA1S3TT0 Thanks It's been a long time since I posted on youtube and didn't get some "FUCK YOU" hostile type of comment as a response. lol so thanks for keeping the peace.
Much has been said about this video, like this curious interpretation in YouTube: "This video is a classic representation of rebirth. kid in light colored attire, searches for and fights the evil within (dark colored attire). And is ultimately defeated,(by himself, meaning that he allowed it) leaving the dark entity of kid to rule over his physical self, as seen in the last shot (wearing dark colored attire). You can watch the video, but do you SEE it?"
Brown jacket=mr rager black jacket=cudi and all the guys he fights are his troubles in life then he sees a guy with glasses who looks like Kanye and he misses his punch and it goes down hill from there and the only one that gets to him is himself killing the monster from within
The black Jacket that Kid Cudi wears in the video was created by Surface to Air, and is available off thier website for $1,220. Just search for "THE KID CUDI FIRE JACKET V1"
Holistic already shot a video in this same building less than a year ago, to a much better song. Their song is called "Hit the switch" its on my youtube page.
All of you people have pretty good hypothesis, but you guys are wrong. Did you guys know KiD CuDi started a rock band called "2 Be Continuum?" Well, this video is basically him getting over his old, Mr. Moon Man self, which rapped, and switching to Mr. Rager, who sings. He just wants to sing, and this is his transition.
So is the one that dies supose to be his old self because he was messed with and felt like he was fighting everyone and the one that kills the old cudi the new famouse cudi has everyone on his side to protect him or am I just wrong? :l
Mr. Rager is Kid Cudi's inner demon that is trying to take over his life.
In the video, Mr. Rager breaks into Cudder's soul and is met by Cudi's guardians, who he proceeds to fight. When the woman blinds him, it represents how Rager would take him over and make him blinded by material things such as women. Afterward Cudi comes up and stabs Rager, therefore killing him for good.
this video was freakin awesome the cinematography was of the chain and the director really got the point through, the music cues were right on with the drums to when he starts singing and the first punch. The cues were raw as hell having everything in unison gave it an awesome affect and the awkward shots of mr.rager gave this vid a really amazing look and feel and everything fits into the song so well i loved it.
This was AMAZING! I can't explain this!!! first how it's all dark and then the torch is in the air the song starts and when it drops "I'm off on the adventureeeeee" man this is sweet. Never seen a video like this. Love Cudi.
@manb15 mr. rager is the cudi in the black coat, if you bought the album you'd see that when he describes the journey the song mr. rager is about the old cudi dying and mr. rager taking over. kanye was wearing a black coat too, he was on mr. rager's side
My favorite music video from G.O.O.D. music use to be Welcome to Heartbreak, now this is definitely my favorite, there is no label out there as creative as G.O.O.D. music, have someone argue that
@PontFX not really i can see what u mean but oldboy scene is one take n in a long hallway, this looks like any fight scene you'll see in a fightin movie and im not sure but i think the dude from oldboy survives the attack :)
