Today is really a special day with three great milestones, so I will have a post trilogy, just as the two albums, that were released on this day in Germany, are also part of a trilogy.
For KiD CuDi‘s debut album we get the preferential treatment compared to the US, where his album ‘Man on the Moon: The End of Day’ is due to release on September 15. I pre-ordered the Deluxe Edition on Amazon.de and look what I got in the mail this morning.
As you can see, the poster is inside. And the CD contains the Crookers Remix of Day ‘n’ Nite (by the way, a few days ago I found out about the second video for that version). So far, so good.
What was missing was the DVD, that should be in the Deluxe Edition. I checked back on the Amazon site and the page didn’t exist anymore. I wanted to call them, but then came an e-mail basically saying, that the manufacturer told them, that there won’t by any Deluxe Edition, which is shocking news to me (and maybe to you, too?). At least, I will get the remainig amount or I can send the CD back. It looks like the Deluxe Edition is available on hhv.de on September 18, so I’ll try that and hopefully get it eventually. There is even a trailer out there for the footage of the DVD, so c’mon, there has to be a Deluxe Edition. Right?? Right??
For those of you looking just for the CD, you can now get it there, too, including a limited KiD CuDi shirt. Although I must say, that there are KiD CuDi shirts out there, that rank higher in dopeness.
If you still didn’t decide to buy the album, you can have a listen here with the Album Sample by DatNewCudi.com (by the way, if you are looking for CuDi information, that’s the site right there!).
Also, ‘Blueprint 3′ dropped today in Germany, as it was originally planned in the US, too. Jay-Z will give a beneficial concert at MSG this evening, on exactly the same day ‘The Blueprint’ came out eight years ago (Yes, Sep 11, 2001). I think that is also a great advertising you can see below.
I like both albums, but I really love KiD CuDi’s album. In my opinion THE album right now! I listen to it all day. What’s your favorite?
And stay tuned for the other posts coming today.
