Were you surprised to hear Kid Cudi on Kanye West's track "Guilt Trip" seeing as his he split from G.O.O.D. music? Well you're not alone. In an interview with Complex (via Pitchfork), Cudi was just as surprised to hear his vocals ("If you love me so much then why'd you let me go-o-o-o-oooo?") on the Yeezus track and he isn't happy about it.
"I discovered that I was on the song via Twitter," he said. "I saw kids hitting me up, like, 'Are you on 'Guilt Trip?!' or saying 'Great job!' and I'm like, 'What the f**k is everyone talking about?"
He said when he listened to the track and recognized the song, at first he was okay with it. But they he got to thinking and changed his mind. "Why not call me and have me come in there and give it? Why underuse me?" he asked. "Why put four bars of vocals to coax my fans into thinking this is a legitimate Kid Cudi feature on this song and it isn't?"
"Same deal with the G.O.O.D. Music album, the compilation," he continued. "Had I not given Kanye 'Creepers' [for "The Morning"], my only presence would've been on that one song, that I can't even remember the title for. I would've barely been on that album."
What do you think? Was it fair for West to include Cudi on the track without even giving him a heads up or a say in the matter? Let us know in the comments section below!
