Pursuit Of Happiness single cover


Just like "Day 'N' Nite", which I covered as #trackoftheday 15 here, the track was released as a single from Kid Cudi's debut studio album "Man on the Moon: The End of Day". Contrary to "Day 'N' Nite" though, the track was first released on the album on September 15, 2009, and was only published as a single on January 25, 2010.

Just like "Day 'N' Nite", the track had "(Nightmare)" attached to its title on the album, as the album's titles shared the theme of dreaming.

The track was produced by Ratatat and features vocals from MGMT on the hook.

You can also see fellow rapper Drake in the official video of the track, which released December 8, 2009:

March 29, 2010, another music video was released, directed by Megaforce:

One of my favorite songs to this day! Thanks for sharing. Also, it was Kanye that signed him not Drake 🙃

Oooh you're right, I mixed that one up. Thanks, I'll correct it right away.
