I discover music in weird ways. Shopping at Orange, boutiques along Robson Street in BC or standing outside the Y Grocery drinking Hennessy-infused orange Slice. I DVR Subterranean - and I jotted notes on this artist named Kid Cudi who was so unknown, the folks at Easy Street thought I was lying when I asked for this man's music last year. Alas, he resurfaces - but this time on the MTV Hits Playlist on channel 472 (right after Lady Gaga) - which tells me, this guy might be going mainstream, (kind of like that shampoo we used to buy exclusively at the salon, but can now be purchased at Costco) so I'm compelled to get his music out of my system. I've been replaying this song from 7am and will do so til the time I must leave for the atelier, sacrificing my need for liquids and a bowl of oatmeal. It will be worth it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VkSq2Zn2XoY
