Kid Cudi feat Ratatat – ‘Alive’

Despite its ubiquity and chav-ringtone appeal, HWD loved the Crookers remix of Kid Cudi’s ‘Day ‘N’ Nite’; we even worked it into ‘My Heart Is Set On You’ during our live sets. None of this prepared us for Kid Cudi’s debut album Man On The Moon: The End Of Day, a sprawling and surprising concept record which recalls Marvin Gaye, Andre 3000’s The Love Below and the best of Kanye West. Amongst numerous highlights is ‘Alive’, one of two collaborations with HWD favourites Ratatat.
