Mexicans are pretty dark and a very popular race so there shouldn’t be anything to fuss about. Kid Cudi probably just has his mother’s melanin because compared to most African Americans, He does have Hispanic features in him.

Look at his whole name. Just because he doesn’t look like your typical half mexican/black does not mean he is not just that. People come on now its 2010 genetics have their own routes.
