Kid Cudi forms rock band, working on album

October 28th, 2010

He hasn’t even released his second album yet (it’s due November 9), but Kid Cudi has revealed his third album is already in the works.

“I already have three songs done,” he told an audience during a listening party for his new album, Man on the Moon II: The Legend of Mr. Rager.

The yet-to-be-titled disc will not be credited to Cudi but his new rock band. “Our band is called Wizards! We’re starting to record on the tour bus. We’ll be doing college runs.”

Like he demonstrates in his new “Erase Me” video, Cudi has also taken up the guitar, which will be prominent in Wizards. “I never thought I could play an instrument. I always downplayed that shit. It was like learning how to read sheet music. F**k that! That’s like learning how to read again!”

As for Mr. Rager, the rapper has put a lot of faith in his new album, saying, “This is an album that will get you through any problem that you may have, and I specifically made this album for y’all. When I was growing up, I didn’t have songs like this. This is my motivation.”
