Kid Cudi And Nigo ‘Want It Bad’ On Their Hazy And Upbeat Collaboration

by

Next month, designer and producer Nigo will release his first album in nearly two decades with I Know Nigo. The project was announced at the end of last year and it is being handled by Steven Victor, who manages Pusha T and Pop Smoke. So far, fans have heard one single from I Know Nigo, “Ayra” with ASAP Rocky. Now, they can enjoy a second release as Nigo teams up with Kid Cudi for “Want It Bad.” The track is a hazy release that seems Cudi glide on production that becomes more and more energetic and chaotic as he progresses through the song.

The new song concludes quite the up-and-down week for Kid Cudi. It began when Kanye West declared that Cudi would not appear on Donda 2 because of Cudi’s friendship with Pete Davidson, who is currently dating West’s ex-wife Kim Kardashian. Afterward, Cudi launched his new live music app Encore after securing $9 million in funding. “My number one priority has always been inspiring others and providing them the space to tell their own stories in an authentic and meaningful way,” Cudi said about the move in a statement.

Afterward, Cudi shared a concerning message on Instagram, which sought support from his fans from all over. “God… please watch over me and keep my mind sane,” he wrote. “I could use it right now. To anyone who feels alone, I’m with you and I love you.” Many of his supporters sent him love, including Kanye, who reshared his message on Instagram and wrote, “Love you family.”

ASAP Rocky Joins Nigo To Flex His Riches On The Braggadocios ‘Arya’

by

At the end of last year, fashion designer and producer Nigo revealed that his first album in nearly two decades was on the way. The upcoming project, titled I Know Nigo, is set to drop at some point this year and it’ll feature Tyler The Creator, Kid Cudi, Pusha T, Lil Uzi Vert, the Teriyaki Boyz, and more. I Know Nigo is handled by Steven Victor who is Pusha T and the late Pop Smoke’s manager. The album also includes an appearance from ASAP Rocky who appear on “Arya,” the newest single from I Know Nigo.

The track is a laid-back braggadocios release that sees Rocky flexing his riches and how it places him above the completion. It’s a satisfying offering from Harlem rapper who hasn’t delivered an album, and much music at that, since his 2018 project Testing. The new song gives big promise for what the rapper has to offer as many wait for his fourth album, which is tentatively titled All Smiles.

He previously revealed that the project will come with contributions from The Smiths’ lead vocalist Morrissey. “Anything you need him to do, he show up and do,” Rocky said about the singer during a GQ interview last year. He added that the two spent some time remotely working on the album, which Rocky described as a “ghetto love tale” and “way more mature” than his previous projects.
