Eh, TPAB has a few songs that only really work for me in the context of the album. GKMC otoh has mostly songs that work both as part of a whole as well as standalone tracks.

also: I hate y'all 😂
Every song on TPAB is good on it's own to me. There is a reason it's my second favorite album ever

double post cause of thread title scust
So what does he have going for him if he's a bad songwriter, his albums are boring and underwhelming, and his hooks are among the worst in Rap?

Production on Cudi's album is so good.

HIs lyrics look fine,the hook depend on the song but he's one of the most original rapper I ever listened to.
I was just about to say the same. Just started with the second half because I didn't have the time yet in the last few days and the production is really cool. Gonna listen to it again in a few days on my big speakers. This really is Cudder's best (or, well, the first listenable) since MotM, no? The last few albums were hot basura. Never listened to them again.

hey, more power to you. TPAB was my AOTY 2015 and one of my favourite records ever (I even got the vinyl, word to irish) but I find it hard to revisit some tracks (in their entirety) outside of a full listen. Which I still do on the regular but I agree with the widespread notion that it's weaker at a casual listen.

I'll agree on revisiting TBAP. It's like either I revisit the entire album no tracks at all.
The tracks are heavy, and they have skits on the end of them too. I'll go listen to something like Hood Politics and Alright and forget about the "I remember you was conflicted part", then I feel like I have to finish the album.

1. J. cole is a reputable artist.
2. The album is solid.
People simply like J. Cole.

He's a damn good rapper technically. As we all know at this point, this doesn't mean anything in the grand scheme of things.

Kendrick's my future GOAT and I believe that Good Kid, Butterfly, and Untitled are pretty much perfect, but for some reason I actively don't like Section 80, Ab-Soul is essentially the only thing I go back for.
Now all we need is Jay to be inducted into the songwriters hall of fame.

Man, this miles Davis dude is fucking nice. What's his best album?
I know you're joking, but Sketches of Spain is my absolute favorite. So good.

In a Silent Way is my favorite

I'm not joking. I was browsing Spotify last night and was listening g to Kamasi Washington's The Epic and Miles Davis was recommended. I've heard his name before but never listened to his music.
Thanks for the recommendations.

Spotify only shows 2 tracks for In A Silent Way. Is that correct?

All the ones listed ahead were good. I'm personally fond of Bitches Brew.

Impossible to pick. But if you're starting out, depending on what you like
Kind Of Blue, Sketches Of Spain, and ESP are good starters. If you like TPAB check out On The Corner.

Kid Cudi's Passion, Pain & Demon Slayin' (Hums Only Version)
So, what's the concensus on the new Cudi here so far? Des, you heard it yet?

As someone who never heard a full Cudi album before, I like this new one well enough. Only listened through it once but I enjoyed most of what I heard. Favorite track might be dance 4 eternity.

PPDS is mediocre and just as awful as the venereal disease its acronym should represent.
Sounds really samey and annoying throughout. 1 or 2 standout tracks the rest are recycle bin tier.
