Kid Cudi has a very impressive discography, but I feel like this album is wayyyy too overlooked. Not only does it have serious bangers, but it’s also his most interesting album to me from a sound and content standpoint. The context of being sandwiched between Speedin‘ Bullet 2 Heaven and Kids See Ghosts makes it even crazier.
This one really got me thru some shit and is always a welcome listen to come back to. Thank you Kid Cudi 💫

Last music recc i promise 🙈. The Dark Knight of Indie Sleaze. Cody has been my fav since I was little kid. This album does not get enough shine for bringing us into the Frank Ocean world we’re currently in. Definitely a spiritual blueprint for me with the whole genre-blending. Reconnecting with his catalog really helped me pick up the guitar again too.

"Ｌｏｖｉｎｇ ｙｏｕ ｉｓ ｃｏｍｐｌｉｃａｔｅｄ"
a concept album that weaves a soul, funk and jazz infused narrative with the rapper's struggles balancing the discriminated background he came from versus the hypocritical position of power he ended up in
yeah yeah, everybody and their mama has talked about this album, we all know it's good, what else is there to say? well namely, a decade later, this album is not only as poignant as ever, but it truly feels like it will become timeless
the cohesiveness and the way it truly feels like you're being taken on a hero's journey is where this thing truly shines. the narrative crafting on this is something you almost never see anymore. the LYRICAL MOTIFS my god
and even if it didn't have all that, it's got hits!! alright? these walls? king kunta? wesley's theory? like come awn
i still cry to u every fucking time i listen to it
anyways yeah it's good not news keep it movin
(my absolutely chaotic evil thought is that somebody should adapt this into a musical like green day's american idiot it probably won't be good but i'm morbidly curious)

All naps are not made equal. The Friday afternoon nap is the most powerful nap ever invented and should be mandatory for everyone.
There’s like a 75% chance you wake up and have no idea who or where you are, but I promise it’s the lil boost you need to head into a lovely weekend. 20 mins minimum. Bonus points if you’re still on the clock.

Somebody could argue that eating lunch in your car is kinda lonely—and they may be right. But there’s something so lovely about escaping the hospital lighting in the office and enjoying a nice meal and a chill break in a quiet space. Throw on some good music or a lil podcast and it’s perfect
