Kid Cudi emerges with a new track, “Perfect Is The Word,” produced by “Day N Night” cohort Dot Da Genius. Continuing on his musical path, “Perfect” finds Cudi embracing his Wizard alter ego and exploring a more rock-infused sound. Far from standard boom bap but just fine when you consider the guy’s always leaned towards traveling the darker side of the moon.

Not sure where rap fans will fall in terms of how they feel about the track, but the Cleveland MC’s adventurous side is one of his main draws. Instead of continually giving us the same song each time out, he switches it up and asks fans to keep pace with his growth. Sometimes, the music works while in other situations it doesn’t. After a few listens, “Perfect” will find a home in a few iPod, somewhere between your “Nirvana songs” and “old Cudi” playlists.

Cudi’s 2 Be Continuum release is slated to hit shelves during the summer.
