Aviator and Kid Cudi at The House of Blues!


Boston University took over the House of Blues Boston on March 20th for the spring "Scarlet Fever" concert. The audience teemed with excitement as local artists, including DJ E-MARCE, Taylor Walker, and Aviator, shared the stage with hip-hop phenomenon KiD CuDi.







Aviator performance included tracks from his new mixtape “Thank You, Come Again” and opened with his signature song, “Tell Me Why.” Avi’s energy was contagious and got the crowd making the two-fingered A in no time. He proved, like the track states, that “the mic looked right in [his] arm.” Avi connected most to the audience with his song “Bring Nick Back,” giving a shout out to “all [his] 90’s kids.” References to “Hey Arnold!” and pogs hit a sweet note for Generation Y as well as the artist himself – the song is an homage to his days growing up with his little brother who provides the infectious beats in the background). Other songs performed included “I Like It” and “Jai Flow,” a tongue-in-cheek allusion to his Indian heritage.

The pairing of Aviator with KiD CuDi was a logical move based on their similarities. Both artists started rapping at a young age. However, CuDi was only a few years older than Aviator when he released his first mix tape in 2008. A year later, he released his first album, “Man on the Moon: The End of Day.” But Aviator isn’t far behind CuDi. Later this Spring, Avi's expected to release his full-length album “Bigger Than My Matador."


Until next time,
