Kid Cudi: Immortal Review

By - J

Just a few days ago Kid Cudi unleashed another single off his forthcoming album Indicud and it's a unique song. Immortal features samples from MGMT "Congratulations" as well as Billy Madison.

It starts off with Adam Sandler in Billy Madison with the line "I am the smartest man alive." It then blends in with the MGMT sample coupled with Cudi's unique style of production. The one thing that sets this song apart is that Cudi sings the entire song, it features no rapping. The hook features a two liner,"I'm living my life as if I got powers/And tonight I feel immortal/I said tonight I feel immortal/Tonight I feel immortal." Definitely a reflection of Kid Cudi's struggles and his recovery. You can check out an in depth description of all the lyrics at Rap Genius.


After dropping the first two singles off Indicud, Just What I Am and King Wizard. I'm definitely excited to hear the full length LP. Cudi's stated that the album will be his version of Dr. Dre's "The Chronic 2001"so let's see what he'll bring. After the tragedy that was WZRD and a bunch of crazy features off Cruel Summer, he's off to a great start for Indicud.
