I definitely feel the emotional tug of this album, like I respect both the artists have been thru and that it’s freeing for them to feel redeemed

I guess I focus too much on like the actual sounds and voice tones and structures too much sometimes, like I’m judging it too harshly on Kanye’s nasallyness and I’ve never been a fan of cudi’s sound really

yeah no I struggled with rating this as well noler but I kinda got the vibe the "freeing" theme of this album applied to not confining themselves to make "objectively" amazing music but instead music that came off very naturally, hence why it feels a bit messy but at the same time it kinda drives home the album's conceit

Yeah the fact of the matter is me harshly judging the sounds of the album is probably exactly what both artists are trying to free themselves from lol

So fuck maybe I’m the bad guy

Probably my favorite aspect of music is when theme and execution go hand in hand, and I already love both artists, so I can concede my 4.5 is subjective for sure

I'm still pretty disgusted/very conflicted when it comes to him lol but yeah it definitely fell by the wayside relatively quick

nolerthebowler , Kids See Ghosts has so much appeal because it shows that Kanye and Cudi have triumphed over relatable struggles. Not to mention the sampling was very unique. From the Louis Prima one on "4th Dimension" that in standard Kanye fashion, should not have worked as well as it should have. To the Kurt Cobain sample that actually didn't feel forced and worked well with the song. A couple of weeks after the album released Drake used a dispicable Michael Jackson feature where he altered his voice, it just shows how much care was put into what was used in everyone ounce of KSG.

One of my fav memes ever was “y’all getting worked up ab drake featuring Michael Jackson like Kanye didn’t thro GOD in the booth”

The Santa sample is used very very well, that song and T/T are the clear standouts imo
