Care for a quick-hit preview of Kid Cudi's debut album, Man On The Moon: The End Of Day? The fellas over @ Dat New Cudi compiled a downloadable version of the :30 second samples that were released on Amazon.com earlier 2day. It's still too early to fully judge but I am impressed with the sounds and vibe of a few of the previously unreleased tracks like "Soundtrack To My Life", "Heart Of A Lion", and the album's concluding track: "Up Up & Away". September is already off to a great start, arguably the best for new album releases (Trey Songz, Jay-Z, Kid Cudi, Melanie Fiona... who am I missing?) and Cudi's much hyped debut is a big reason why. September 15th!

Below, Drake unleashed the final master of "Forever" over at his blog. It definitely sounds cleaner but doesn't feature the rumored R&B singer on a new hook. I still like Drake's though so I'm not completely underwhelmed. Most notable difference in the final master: the beginning of Kanye's verse. Most disappointing non-change in the final master: the random bullhorns that make it sound like a mixtape track. *shrugs* Now that you've had a few days to digest the track (or now for the 1st time), who do you think has the best overall verse? I'm still pickin' Slim Shady for that one.

Under "Forever" is an underwhelming (word of the day calendar!) trio of tracks that feature big names like Akon and Cassie before you hit a quick behind the scenes look at the fly video coming soon for Consequence's "Whatever U Want" f/ Kanye West & John Legend and directed by Hype Williams. Enjoy!
