Sep 14, 2016 Kanye and cudi have a long a--- past but both have exchanged their talents for eachother. Who helped out the other the most? Kanye kinda put cudi on and featured him on a bunch of classic songs, but cudi also wrote 30% of 808s and gave him "Heartless" and got signed to GOOD.
Sep 14, 2016 cudi was well on his way to being the s--- before kanye however no one became the s--- without someone else who was the s---, seeing them and changing it all. so, kanye changed kid cudis life, but so too kid cudi changed kanyes. its really some down low gay s--- 3bh like all hip hop n power hungry mindsets #facts
Sep 14, 2016 Kanye easily. Cudi had a hand in 808s, but he was just one of many. Kanye literally gave Cudi a career and is still keeping him relevant to the masses after Cudi left his label and took shots at him on twitter and in interviews. Some writing credits and reference vocals don't outweigh a deal and spots on various hits.
Sep 14, 2016 808s was trashed by the mainstream when it was released. I remember everyone clowning Kanye for singing with auto tune. I still see idiots now shi--ing on 808s like it isn't a fantastic album O.o
Sep 14, 2016 Cudi helped write Heartless, Paranoid, Robocop and Welcome To Heartbreak out of the other 8 songs
Sep 14, 2016 Cudi was Kanye's favourite artist. Cudi's AKNC was a major influence in Kanye who then released 808's. Often said how influential 808s was but really it was AKNC.
Sep 14, 2016 1. Kanye signed Cudi and gave him the cosign he needed to blow up 2. Kanye over saw Cudi's only great albums, once he left the albums started to go to s--- 3. Kanye knows how to use Cudi to his full potential, whereas Cudi is too wild on his own. (Examples: Cudi is incredible on all Kanye songs where Kanye knows exactly what he wants)
