Emile, the producer behind some of the best songs on the new Kid Cudi album (it’s awesome), was interviewed by Complex magazine recently and in it, he walks through a lot of the tracks he produced and explained what happened behind the scenes to make them happen. Whether it is what frame of mind Kid Cudi was in or how the beat was created. It’s pretty cool.
Here’s a snippet from one of the questions that isn’t song specific. Follow the link to see more.
Complex: Did you or Pat or Cudi ever feel like this album was too bold for a debut album? It’s not the most Hot 97-friendly record…
Emile: Yeah I mean, that wasn’t even needed to be thought about. We’re not the type to even really give a fuck about all that. It is what it is. Like when you hear “Day ‘N’ Nite,” you know it’s incredible but it’s not like a generic radio record. It just so happened that the people heard it, and loved it, and it managed to find a place in our world. I never even thought about it, I think we knew what we were doing was good and wherever it fit in, it fit in.
