Kid Cudi has issued a public warning to his record label after his recent singles failed to take off at radio.
The rapper took to
Twitter yesterday (January 8) to complain about the lack of airplay for his tracks 'Just What I Am' and 'King Wizard', despite their popularity on YouTube. He wrote: "King Wizard 3.4 million views on Vevo, Just What I Am has 4.3 million and my shyt is not on regular rotation on radio. Hmmm."
In his next tweet, Cudi compared his singles to 'All Gold Everything' by fellow rapper
Trinidad James, saying: "Trinidad James got 4.1 million views on his hit (rightfully so), and I hear that jam EVERYWHERE. Wheres my fukkin spins???"
Kid Cudi proceeded to deliver a warning to record company Republic, posting: "To my label, I swear to all that is fukkin holy in this world, if things dont change soon, theres gonna be some problems."
Then, defending his Twitter tirade, the rapper added: "I worked too hard on all this shyt. Producing, writing, directing AND executing the shyt proper. I did my part, I put in work. Wtf... Yall kno I cuts no slack. Not w my music. Every song is my life. A piece of my fukkin tormented soul. It matters to me. I give a fukk."
