Hip Hop is my main genre.
I like Kanye well enough even though I’m not a huge fan, and I have had a heavy dislike for Cudi since his first album. All that being said, Kids See Ghosts is amazing. I’ve listened 15-20 times since its release.
I didn’t like it very much my first listen, I thought Kanye had some good verses but his performance on the first track (the gun sounds) made me think he wasn’t taking it too seriously. The main thing that made me relisten was the production, and my opinion of it has continued to grow with each listen, it just keeps developing and each new part I notice fits so perfectly. And when the vocals clicked with me it was just an addictive experience.
I usually text my opinions of new albums to my friends, and it’s funny reading them back and seeing how my texts developed from making fun of parts of the album (WHERE DA CHORUS) to “there’s something about this that keeps bringing me back” to “I think I actually like this” to “holy shit this is so good I can’t believe Kanye and cudi dropped my favorite album of the year.”
