Unexpected!
Quick turns in life, and just as quick in the music business.
He barely just got started in the business, but KiD CuDi seems to be changing his mind as often as you would change your shorts. XXL reports that after the success with 'Day n' nite', which peaked at number 27 on Billboard's Hot 100 list, CuDi has simply decided he doesn't want to be a Hiphop artist any more. His debut album 'Man on the moon: The Guardians' will his first and last contribution to the charts.
Apparantely, people in his surroundings are saying that he has changed after getting the spotlight pointed at him. And this doesn't fly high with CuDi, who decided to quit and focus on his acting career.
First of all: If it's true, it's a shame for a young talent to throw the mic in the trash after just one album.
Second: Is it true? We have heard this sort of announcements before. And they have most often been false.
Been there done that. 50 Cent said that if his album 'Curtis' sold less than Kanye West's album 'Graduation', he would step back and enjoy the retired life with a walker, reading glasses and lots and lots of money. But despite losing the battle, his next album is set to come out later this year. This is just one example. The list is so long I can't be bothered mentioning any more of them.
Why would this be false then? It's simple. PR. KiD CuDi's debut album is highly anticipated, and if it will be the last album he ever makes, and by that the only album, sales will go through the roof. Then, a year or so later, he finds the mic deep down in the bin and everyone will want to hear the mighty comeback of the One Album Man.
