Kid Cudi cancels ‘A Man Named Scott’ Mixtape
By Matt Morris / News / August 22, 2011 / 4804 Views

Sad news has surfaced for Kid Cudi fans. At the beginning of this year, the G.O.O.D. Music artist took to his Twitter account to state that he would be releasing two projects in 2011: Wizard, which is his collaborative rock album with producer Dot Da Genius, and A Man Named Scott, which would serve as the follow-up to his 2008 debut mixtape. But unfortunately, it turns out Cudi has only been able to focus on the latter. Read the statement below from his Tumblr in which he lets fans know that A Man Named Scott has been cancelled, but Wizard will still be released sometime this year and work on the third installment of his Man On The Moon album series will ensue after that.

A Man Named Scott is scrapped everyone, I know its a bummer but ive just been too busy with this new album and thats where all my energy and focus is right now. I gotta work on what moves me creatively. After this im going straight to work on MOTM3 so dont trip. You’ll definately have the WIZARD album this year so no worries. Trust im working extra hard to make this shit as amazing as possible and get yall some new jams. Again, sorry for the late notice. I know youll understand, I hope you understand ha :)

    Kid Cudi is a busy guy. Touring, recording, and acting. All I'm going to say is that Kid Cudi is a rapper. And he cancelled his rap mixtape in favor of his rock album. That bothers me.

    BoomDigga he is a musician, i can't believe someone who appreciates music (which you obviously do) would want to put artists in boxes like that.

    I don't care which he releases. So long as i get new cudder music before this year is out I'M GOOD.

  • http://twitter.com/GottaBeTory Tory Barnes

    It bothers me that you still consider cudi a rapper.

  • That_Shit_Cray

    If Cudi was still smokin' dat maui wowie this post woulda been about a release date not a cancel.....but oh well

  • xyz

    If Cudi was a rapper he wouldnt of canceled the rap project. Let him make the music he is inspired to create.

    lol he is a shitty musician. one of the most mediocre ive ever seen people defend. just goes to show the shitsticks that listen to music these days, hipsters actually think this guy is some kind of talented artist. no one needs to hear this dude mumble over any more tracks

    I'm very curious about how WIZARD will sound. It better not be like Rebirth.

    He's only been able to focus on "A Man Named Scott"? Because that's how "the latter" is used here

    As a Cudi fan I'm disappointed, but the rock album should be amazing and MOTM III should be epic.  I'm not listening to any leaks this time because that's how I spoiled my experience with MOTM II.  I know that nigga's working hard.  G.O.O.D. Music is gonna come out of it too. 

  • Theodoreelohino

    They'll never learn...Cudi was never a FULL MC.  He has even said that.

  • Theodoreelohino

    It won't be...it'll be Pure Rock N' Roll

    I'll give it to Cudi in that he's been very successful with everything that he has done so far. I'm just not a fan of the idea of a Rock album. I feel like he's getting a little greedy and trying to do too much. I don't want Wizard to be Cudi's 808s and Heartbreak.

    don't get me wrong they were amazing i just was disappointed that i knew alot of the material already

    won't be pure rock n roll but it most surely will be leaps and bounds above anything rebirth ever aspired to be

  • fano

    Ayo, as a dumb ass muthafucker who doesn't know shit about anything, I personally don't listen to rock music, so FUCK ANYTHING that cudi puts out that sounds like it. And FUCK AUBREY DRIZZY DRAKE, that lotion-wearing, snowflake-on-his-tongue ass bitch.

  • Addea

    It says he could only focus on the latter, being the second album in the order he references them in the previous sentence. His use is correct, if maybe a little confusing.

    Sad news man!

    Dont despair as there is plenty of good music over here...
