Kid Cudi's Back With the Silky Ratatat Collaboration "Love"
It's been a long year since Kid Cudi's fourth album, the trippily, verbosely titled Satellite Flight: The Journey to Mother Moon. The record was almost entirely Cudi-written and Cudi-produced, with a single feature from R&B and neo-soul legend Raphael Saadiq.
Today the Kid's back with "Love," a smooth, Ratatat-sampling cut from the Satellite Flight era. The word from Mr. Mescudi, via his Soundcloud:
"Something I made during the SF sessions. produced by me, keys by Dot. Sample is from one of my favorite Ratatat jams 'Sunblocks.' And love to Evan and Mike for allowing me to release it. For you. Hope it brings you some peace if you have a lonely heart out there. byeeeee."
