Kid Cudi, Cage And St. Vincent Let “Maniac” Loose On ‘Jimmy Fallon’

Thu Nov 4 2010 by Robbie Daw
With less than a week to go before the release of Man On The Moon II: The Legend Of Mr. Rager, Kid Cudi turned out a mesmerizing and, quite frankly, creepy performance on Late Night With Jimmy Fallon last night that had us questioning whether Halloween was truly over.
