Easiest money for cage..... Just feature on a song that mostly clueless teenagers will listen to, make a couple thousand and never hear from them again.
Kid Cudi has something special. For someone like me who has a bit of a "hipster" mentality towards music, I find this song brilliant. At first I thought St.Vincent (who did a beautiful job---like always) was the only reason I enjoyed it, but I found myself listening to all of his songs without chastising them. He brings in all these other artists outside of the rapping world and collaborates with them which is truly interesting and unique. I hope his music stays fresh.
Annie Clark was perfect as always and by far the best she sounded exactly like she does on the album but cudi was a little off on the tune but he did pritty good other then the outfit but cage sucked it sounded like he forgot his words what the hell to him
wow didnt know st. vincent was that cute and fucking cudi was blazed as fuck there you can tell when he puts his shades on at 1:50 The Rager is Alive....
@kc42291 Please, they could have found anyway who sounded a little bit like herbert from family guy and put them in this song. she should be happy she gets to mooch off of a little Kid Cudi/Cage success for a bit.
@xenadu1 Are you kidding me? St. Vincent is one of the most talented and intelligent performers out there and has been doing quite well for herself. Her lyrics actually require some sort of intellectual understanding (references to EE Cummings, politics, famous figures, not just about getting high) not to mention she is one of the greatest guitar players music has seen in awhile. Do yourself a favor and check out her music, you will regret everything you just said.
lol as a cage fan since like 2003, i say you need to calm the fuck down. who cares if some ppl are just discovering him. great music is great music, better late than never. yea i wish cage would be less underrated, but theres no denying that cudi has a great taste in music and exposed all of his fans to cage so fuck off
why does it have to be about who heard of who first? artists wanna be heard and if they are fuckin good then don't be mad when they blow up. personally i'm glad cudi introduced me to cage, and i don't mean i only like it because cudi likes it. as i watched him perform "i never knew you" i immediately wanted to listen to everything he had to offer. so if your a fan be happy for the artist, it's not like hes getting big and selling babies. chill and enjoy...dammit.
@fantazmacy well if yr serious about music u take a personal outlook on artists and i just find it anoying that some people im not saying u, but some people just in general start liking a artist because hes getting in the spot light now, but when they were just coming up they didnt want to know and just pisses me off that people would clame to be a cage fan when all they are, are fake mother fuckers
and its the same with if aesop rock went with a famous artist some of you people would be like o my god aesop rock and justin timbelake my life is now complete and thats just an example because aesop rock would never do that, or el-p the same thing would happen
i bet some of u mother fuckers never even heard of cage because what happens with some people they only like artists which are in the lime light i hate it people like that so if yr one of those stop commenting as if u ever liked cage u only like him because hes with kid cudi now ive liked cage since his movies for the blind and when he did smut peddlers, and the weatherman so if yr one of these fuck off now !
@lopezz3084 yes he is bro hes one of the most talented mcs of today him and aesop rock we are lucky to have them so if yr not a cage fan why are u on this vid so please leave thank you
just let the roots and annie clark jam out. wouldve sounded better. paint the black hole blacker.
