Kid Cudi blev lanceret af Kanye West, og siden har den unge Atlanta-rapper skabt sin egen karriere. Det her er hans tredje, delvist selvproducerede album - og der er dømt retro-rap. Selv har Cudi udtalt, at han ser "Indicud" som sin version af Dr. Dre's legendariske udgivelse "2001", men vi er snarere tilbage i 90'erne med albummets tykke, stadion-agtige synthflader. Det fungerer til dels, men Cudi er ikke en producer af Dre's klasse, og hans snøvlende rap er en smagssag. Gæstes af blandt andre RZA, Kendrick Lamar og - Michael Bolton (!).

"It's ominous but hollow stuff. Ever prone to grandiose proclamations, Cudi wastes no time on Indicud; "You know I'm unfuckwittable!" he belts, his chest fully puffed. He's certainly putting his money where his mouth is, but to ill effect; though A$AP Rocky and Kendrick drop by, they do just enough to collect the paycheck and hit the door. Old heads RZA and Too $hort roll through and check in and out just as unremarkably. Nothing sticks".

"Cudi's said that Indicud is his 2001, in reference to the Dr. Dre album, but Dre was always considered a producer first, and this rapper's shift to producer/rapper is much more sudden and drastic. Still, it's an entertaining, vibrant, and artistically filling album, so consider it a "presents" effort and enjoy the show".
