WZRD Flies On COMPLEX
Complex is known for their unique and artistic covers. Kid CuDi and Dot Da Genius literally flies on the latest cover. Cudi has seen the cover three times in the past. Watch the WZRDs fly here.

Yesterday, Kid CuDi and Dot Da Genius, collectively known as WZRD, unveiled the album cover for their self-titled alternative rock collaborative effort. Since the announcement of the project, songs intended for the album have been underwhelming. CuDi and Dot realized this and returned to the trippy and chill sound the Cudder is acclaimed for.
