Kid Cudi Man on the Moon album preview

Last night in NYC Kid Cudi held a listening party for his upcoming album Man on the Moon: The End of Day.  ShowingOut.com was on hand and has composed a detailed preview of the album.  Below is an excerpt from it.  Click here to read the rest of the article which includes mini-critiques of each track.  Overall, they loved it.  The album drops on September 15, and the hype is getting louder.

Earlier tonight, journalists and bloggers gathered at Griffin Lounge in New York City’s Meatpacking District to get an advance listen to Kid Cudi’s highly anticipated debut album Man on the Moon: The End of Day. Set to be released on September 15th, the album is a front-to-back listen that takes you on a journey through Cudi’s consciousness, narrated by Common and featuring production from Ratatat, Kanye West, Emile, Plain Pat and even Cudi himself. Call it Cudi’s version of 808’s & Heartbreak, only less sappy and more idealized. This album plays from beginning to end, marked by high points and intended low points (by way of mood, not quality – there’s no compromising on that, considering that every track sounds scrutinized to the very last synth bleat). To put it bluntly, Kanye wishes that he could have made this album, one that sounds genuine without a single forced element.

With an introduction and conclusion by Universal Motown President Sylvia Rhone (she called it a “seminal album” that’s “going to change the game”), Showing Out was there to get an advance listen to the debut in its entirety.
