why I think you was op

I don’t think it was bandcamp, maybe it was and I forgot. It dropped on iTunes back in 2014. That being said cudi referred to it as an interlude project between motm2 and 3. That’s why it’s so short and has the instrumental tracks as well.

Got myself a new friend MMMMMMMMMMMM HMMMMMMMMMMM HMMMMMMMMMMMM HMMMMMMMMMMM

Speedin' Bullet 2 Heaven

Notoriously, one of the worst received albums in the last decade. I confess that the main reason I made this thread is I was curious to listen and talk about this album and needed an excuse.

I came with the expectations of this being the worst album, and to say some positives about it I think the more emotional/chill songs which are always Cudi's strength, can be decent here and this sound works for them. Far from his best stuff but little sparks of light in this album.

That being said the majority of this album is bad, some songs sounding hilarious and some just grating to my ears. Also the lyrics are not good. I like that he goes for a more "rock" voice but somebody should've guided him. This album coming out at a low point in his life makes sense. It's very unhinged / delusional.

Also the last third of the album which is supposed to be B-sides, some of these songs should've been deleted immediately. Audio terrorism.

I understand fans who like this album. It has heart, which is important to me in any album. I also think it comes from a place of appreciation to 90s rock. And I think Cudi could make a good rock album. But make it be more like "Love", not like this!

Edit: Forgot to mention Beavis & Butthead. Luckily there aren't a lot of these skits, but they're very annoying and long.

Score: 3/10

Favorite songs: Wedding Tux, Confused!, Adventures, SB2H.

I agree with the second disc, wish he never added that and just put Insides Out, Worth and MELTING on the main album.
Songs like Amen, Seance Chaos and Angered Kids should’ve never been released by anyone ever

Time for demon slaying

The return of chip Douglas is a F***ING CLASSIC

I love showing people that song

Yeah sb2h is a mess but the title track to the album is one of his best songs ever

Fuschia Butterflies > Speedin Bullet > Embers is a great final 3 track run to close an album

Adventures is fire. PPDS is cudi at his best

Passion, Pain & Demon Slayin'

I want to spread love, there are lot of things to love about this album. It restores the feeling, brings back the MOTM essence but you can tell Cudi has changed, his lyrics are more positive and spiritual, some of it is s*** about feng shui, but its feels authentic.

A lot of versatility here him bringing a psychadelic vibe, dance/electronic influence on a lot of the songs, rhythm and groove, and also orchestra (every song with violins and s*** is good here).

My main issue with this album is how long it is. It was a little hard to get through in one sitting. I still believe most of the album is great but this is like the director's cut. Either some of the songs should've been shorter bc most of them go for 5 minutes, or he should've cut some of the weaker ones.

But as a Cudi fan this is exactly the album you'd want, realness from Cudi, and him trying to revive his sound and make it modern and different than anything we've heard before. Btw happy Pharrell and Andre are a part of this. Also Travis & Willow which is Cudi both working with influences and passing the torch to new artists influenced by him.

My favorite songs as usual are the dreamier / more emotional ones, but he put a twist on them. Overall a good, underrated album and a return to form.

Score: 7/10

Fav songs: Swim In The Light, Rose Golden, Wounds, Kitchen.

Btw bro really did NO NO NO NO NO YEAHHHH YEAHHH again lol

PPDS definitely top 3 Cudi imo. It’s probably a 9/10 for me

My only gripe is that some songs are a little too long

Flight at First Sight is amazing

Wow...

Fantano was really hating on this album lol.

tied with motm2 for his best album

His magnum opus

Once again completely agree

Wish u gave motm 2 a 10 but the thread been on point other than that

Kids See Ghosts

Played this album earlier today in the car. I know it’s cliche to say so and so saved my life. But this and a few similarly emotional and vulnerable albums from 2018-2019 helped me through these type of thoughts. So this album is improtant to me.

I like the direction that Kanye & Cudi took, I think they’re a good duo with chemistry, Kanye figured out which sound fits Cudi, and lets him shine in this album. Kanye’s verse are alright and the beats and musical direction is very unique but with a nostalgic quality. Doing sort of a fusion with alternative rock with indie. It’s different enough and passionate and still pretty chill album.

The only issue is how short it is and how some of the songs feel a little unfinished like how a lot of Kanye songs started becoming. As I said before I would give all of Wyoming away for a full length version of this. I think it Ghost Town was in this and they treated the album like its own era and not shared with other albums, more people will accept it as one of Kanye’s and Cudi’s best albums. Because the sound hits just right and so does the art direction.

I also like how the message of the album is positive and about accepting yourself. Always a feel good listen to me.

Keep moving forward…….

Score: 9/10

Fav songs: Freee, Reborn, Kids See Ghosts, Cudi Montage.
