Kid Cudi (correctly pronounced kid KUH-dee - spread the word) released his first mixtape, A Kid Named Cudi, in collaboration with New York street-wear brand 10.Deep in July of 2008. But it was the singles 'Day 'N' Nite' and 'I Make Her Say' off of Cudi's debut album Man on the Moon: The End of Day (released in 2009) that propelled him to the forefront of the hip-hop and pop music scenes.
David Guetta, a French house producer and DJ, has been around for quite a bit longer, but also just recently jumped into main stream attention with his 2009 album One Love, which included the hit singles 'When Love Takes Over' (featuring Kelly Rowland), 'Sexy Bitch' (featuring Akon), and today's RAD song.
This song has been everywhere in the last month or two; you're probably sick of it already. But check it - bangin' beat, slick delivery, and an inspiringly care-free (if not overly simplistic) lyrical content - it's so genre appropriate it's sick.
The video shows the pair kickin along Biscayne Boulevard in mid-town Miami (also genre appropriate) and while Cudi looks like he knows exactly what he's doing, what the hell is Guetta up to there - he looks like he's trying way too hard...
