This video is a few weeks old but I just ran across it. Kid Cudi is proving himself to be a weirdo, and that's a great quality for a rapper to have. His latest song "Pursuit of Happiness" is a trippy collaboration with indie rock bands MGMT and Ratatat. He played the song live on Letterman with Ratatat last month.
