KiD CuDi and Dot Da Genius' project, WZRD, dropped yesterday but CuDi is already mad at his label for not shipping enough copies. He took it to twitter to express his anger:
'Ok so just a heads up, my weak ass label only shipped 55k physicals cuz they treated this like some indie side project tax right off. So i apologize on behalf of my weak ass major label. And I apologize for the lack of promo, again, my weak ass major label. They tried to rush me thru this so i can just give em another MOTM, but guess what? ? that, next album is WZRD. MOTM3 on hold til 2014.
who mad??? not me and @DotDaGenius : ) So its def gonna be tough to find one in the stores guys, I’m sorry about that. I gotta go out and find one too, becuz my weak ass label never even gave us a copy of our own album. FAIL!!! Im lettin Universal Republic have it, ? it. What they gon’ do, spank me?? hahahaha
AND Teleport 2 Me, Jamie aint on the radio!!!! like helloooooooooo????? HIT HIT HIT!!!'

so you aren't allowed to cop this on itunes. i mean most of his fanbase is probably in the age range that would just buy the ? online
and what label is he on? -
Though its not like he needs major promo or marketing... his second album came out of nowhere to sell over 220K the first week with less than half the buzz and radio support of his debut that had that Day n Nite song....
-
Never cared for the egomanical wannabe-Kanye ass dude.

He on UMG still as far as I know, but in this day and age you can't complain about hard copies when most people cop digital anyway.
-
WZRD has some good ? on it...Its nowhere near as good as I wanted it to be, though
-
Haven't peeped it yet...Gonna wait til I start back smokin next week...
-
can't wait to cop. just really started to listen to dude, loved his first album, second is cool as well. he most definitely got a new fan in me, for sure.

yah Cudi has that arrogant ? going on with him. His MOTM albums are great to me, love his music. I think that he thinks he's on some living legend ? . Probably thats what all rappers think of themselves though.
-
he said hes on univeral republic in the his own comments ... thats like being on geffen ... but u need albums in the stores to do 200k again ....
side note yall think this is what really happen to tiger minus that bs mlk story lol ... cause it def sounds more feasible ... -
side note cudi makes some of the weirdest music its funny that he still gets mentioned amongst the hip hop crowd ... his ? dont sound anything hip hop ... day and night was the closest he got to hip hop
-
I ? with Cudi's music but instead of ? how about just sell those 55,000 copies and make the retail stores beg for more copies. Can't blame the label, ? costs money, and without a buzz they would be fools to ship 500,000 copies first week.

Lies........... -
kudi always seem mad
-
That undership excuse don't fly in the era of digital releases and preorders. We don't believe you!
-
If you don't ? with Cudi, I seriously question your taste...In hip hop and music in general
-
Lol that is a damn foolish statement right there bro. People's opinions are their own. I ? with him but still, how do you expect the entire world to be into him?? Lol jokes.
-
i would say he falls under alternative hip-hop
-

I didn't say everyone should be into his music, I said if they're not then I question their taste -
will this album even sell 10,000?
-
lol Cash Money dont even deal with Universal Motown like they used to, its all Universal Republic now

I hear you. Anyhow I am ok with Cudi's music. But this ? in the first week of your unknown "rock" band's debut release isn't a good look. -
Kid Cudi makes wake and bake rap music
This alternative rock ? is not cool
