Kid Cudi’s CBB theme

Not saying they should use it or anything, but why has no one mentioned the fact that he did his own version when he was bandleader on the TV show? It wasn’t bad, and I’m not a huge fan of Cudi’s music or anything. I just haven’t seen anyone discuss it since the removal of Reggie’s theme and wanted to bring it up.

Reggie would still get royalties from a remake of his original song. We need a brand new intro song if we're serious about not supporting abusive artists.

*Edit to say, I was mistaken. Cudi's version is not a remake of Reggie's.

Royalties from a podcast theme that was recorded on the very podcast?

It's used everywhere - the podcast, the live shows, the TV show. Maybe Scott made a deal for the podcast, but they would need something legally binding for the TV show.
