HBO’s new show, “How To Make It In America” debuts this Valentine’s Day. As we’ve known for some time, KiD CuDi stars as Domingo (the well connected friend) and even though he only appears on here for a grand total of one minute between scenes for this first episode, we look forward to seeing how his character plays out on the show. The pilot has been put up for preview by HBO and at first glance, the show definitely has some potential. Heads up: DatNewCuDi.
“How to Make It in America” follows two enterprising Brooklyn twenty somethings as they hustle their way through New York City, determined to achieve the American Dream. Trying to make a name for themselves in New York’s competitive fashion scene, Ben Epstein (Greenberg) and his friend and business partner Cam Calderon (Rasuk) use their street knowledge and connections to bring their ambitions to fruition. With the help of Cam’s cousin Rene (Guzman), who is trying to market his own high-energy drink, and their well-connected friend Domingo (“Kid Cudi”), the entrepreneurs set out to make it big, encountering obstacles along the way that will require all their ingenuity to overcome.
