In an interview with Complex, Murakami explained how the work came to be, saying, "Last year, Kanye and Kid Cudi said they wanted to come to my studio. They gave me a month notice, and maybe it was July or August that they came." Apparently, Cudi and Ye put on an impromptu performance of one of their songs with Cudi on the guitar during the meeting. Murakami continued that he was unsure where everything was headed, "The visual you saw on Twitter was something that me, my assistants, Kanye, and his assistants all got together for. We drew different ideas on a paper. That was the very rudimental plan. But then nothing came of it, so I didn’t know what was happening."

Fantano is probably the most rational and least agenda-driven music critic in the business.

He's often on the receiving end of a lot of criticism from fanbases that were on the receiving end of a scathing review from him.

But that's what I dig about him. He doesn't really cave into any pressure or shape his reviews around what the social consensus is. He sticks to the music and keeps it moving.

Wasn't he exposed for promoting alt right views?

i think it's hipsterish, emo-gospel, borderline druggie/trippie/psychadelic but somehow still dope. album has been on repeat since friday.

I tried it once and couldn't do it. It pained me to see Cudder go out like that.

Yeah but Cudi returned to form on PPDS.

The bars are low key hard tho, Kanye and Cudi were low key son'in people

For an album that is so diverse musically, it's surprisingly cohesive.
