Kanye, too, seems twice the man he was, if only a week ago thankfully exhausted with the media storm, which was inflamed in anticipation of these releases. It delivers to us a newly invigorated artist, whose vocals are stirring throughout. Kids See Ghosts, though, offers more than hope for Cudi.

Presumably this, and a number of his lyrics throughout are aimed at his detractors who heavily (and often rightly) panned his art as he sank into a state of extreme depression. In fact, the record’s opening track is dominated by Cudi’s soulful and titular cry “I can still feel the love”. Cudi is far from instrumental to Kanye’s genius on this record. Kids See Ghosts not only provides a blissful trip into psychedelic rock-hop, but it also redeems both its protagonists, whose calamitous personal lives have threatened to overshadow their music in recent years (which itself is a testament to the music’s dwindling quality, especially in Cudi’s case). The project doubles as the finest Ye project since Yeezus and the definitive album of Kid Cudi’s catalogue. Three weeks deep and we have Pusha T’s brilliant Daytona, the barely reheated leftovers that comprise Kanye’s eighth album Ye, and now (and I am unequivocal in saying this) we have the best of the bunch thus far, a collaborative album by Cudi and Ye, entitled Kids See Ghosts. It’s been a cruel season now, as the disparate strands of Kanye’s signees and collaborators queue to release albums with either Yeezy on beats or heading the project, all via his ‘G.O.O.D Music’ label. Whereas Kanye gave us notions that struggle could at least be immortalised in art, Cudi’s sombre droning simply reified the fight. But the mob never took to Cudi and as we grew older, Cudi was set-aside, callously mistaken for little more than ‘Ye’s collaborator eating from the hand of God, a sort of human theremin. We never met behind the church again.Ĭudi, on the other hand, we infrareded mostly for the smugness of being on to a Kanye Protégé before the mob. So, when Graduation dropped, it was hot so much that our ritual was caught and shut down within the week. There was no question as to whether ‘Ye had earned his place in the Hiphop pantheon. When Kanye later ordained himself a god, we simply nodded he transcended the grind of broken schools and dead-end jobs, leaving a hymn behind for the rest of us. Pre-Kardashian Kanye was a role-model that vouched for our everyday fight, each record rooted in anti-establishment and rightfully indignant sentiments. Kanye’s College-Dropout trilogy was gospel to us. It operated on the DL for an entire school year, with Kanye’s Graduation dropping at the stub-end of the Summer ‘08’. Phones unfurled from secret pouches and pencil cases.

So, every new album entailed this shamanic ritual. Nobody knew who brought the tunes, where or how the music arrived, or by which block it was as if one of us had divined each new release into being. There a knowing congregation hung, lining Blockias one to one, infrared beaming new albums to one another. Life’s joy was reduced to furtive meetings behind the local chapel after school.
