Certainly, he's a Grammy Award winning, gold-selling rapper, an in-demand producer, songwriter, acclaimed actor, a leader of the urban alternative movement and an "artist" in the truest sense of the word.

Cudi’s ready to unveil his latest masterpiece, his epic third solo album—Indicud[G.O.O.D. Music/ Republic Records].
