All this publication's reviews. WZRD's strengths are rooted in Kid Cudi's vocal tone, one that is gripping and melodic despite his quite limited singing ability. All this publication's reviews Read full review. WZRD, the album, is sort of emo, sort of dream pop, and surely an indulgent effort that surprises with its chemistry and willingness to follow the music.
The album lacks the urgency of successful rap and rock, instead wallowing in a blah middle ground in its best moments. Rolling Stone. The rudimentary guitar, starchy beats and formless synths just sound rough, never fun or spontaneous. Q Magazine. Wonky vocals and a lack of guile strangle the project, not least on Efflictim, where a terminal aimlessness befits the melodramatic-teen lyric[s].

But he does that in all his other albums too I promise anybody that is a Cudi fan, give this a try and let it grow on you. You have to give him credit for trying something new. I would say that he and dot didn't do too bad.

He calls it a "rock album", which I guess it counts as. With that being said I think it has decent beats and his lyrics are pretty good. It lets people know that I'm not out here taking crazy pills. When I get passionate about something, and people hear me kind of outraged, it's not coming from a place of me being irrational, or being difficult to work with.
I believe in something I've created. Music label and Universal Republic. Cudi adds, "We really wanted to make a traditional rock album - no programmed drums, nothing modern. I was just really worried that it would sound like Kid Cudi shit and people wouldn't be able to tell the difference with the music, but it got to a point where we were so inspired. Dot Da Genius says that he and Cudi are "working on the live show," and plan to tour behind the album later this year.
So now we're trying to find cool ways for people to discover what we're doing. Meanwhile, Cudi confirms that WZRD will release another album before he returns to his Man on the Moon hip-hop series, after promising to stick with the project on Twitter last week. This is not a one-off. This is something that's real for me. Search term. Billboard Pro Subscribe Sign In.
