And it's pretty awesome if I do say so myself. No, it's not the typical rap album from him. Hell, it's not even considered a Rap album, but if you can look over that fact, then keep reading...
Dot da Genius came hard with the beats on this one, especially on songs like "Brake" and "The Arrival," which are mostly just beats.
My favorite songs on the album are "Where Did You Sleep Last Night" and "Efflictim." "Upper Room" is pretty dope as well. Of course I love his long song dedicated to his girl, "Teleport to Me, Jamie," but that's a given, plus that's been out a while. We definitely saw a softer side of Cudi this time around, and it's appreciated and welcomed- he's had a rough past few years. His daughter is almost one now, and this time last year he was dealing with ending his hard drinking and cocaine use. We're here for you man, salute.
If you follow him on his Tumblr you'd see that he put up a pic of his new tats today- two eerie-looking slit wrists- yes, with the blood red color and all. With that he wrote this, written underneath the pic:
"The old Scott is dead...slit wrists."
Well then...I do hope he doesn't mean the old rapping Scott, because that would suck REALLY bad. And yes I'm still waiting for another mixtape like "A Kid Named Cudi." (A girl can hope, right?)
Let me know what y'all think, and Dream On...
