I've been told I might be one of five people that likes Kid Cudi's new album, Speedin' Bullet 2 Heaven.
To quote an article: "It’s not that’s it’s just terrible. It’s that it’s so mind-bogglingly atrocious, so far removed from any modern conceptions of taste, that it grows into this fascinating and hilarious slog where each new half-baked idea, offensive cliché, and ill-advised Beavis and Butthead skit brings it to deeper and deeper lows, such that by the end, you could make a convincing argument that it’s the worst album of all time. Somehow this doesn’t get people excited."
And from the same article: "Perhaps he thought he was making his In Utero, and in many ways he did, but whereas Kurt Cobain wrung pathos out of apathy, experimental songs, and disgusting riffs, Cudi fails at wringing any emotion at all."
Which of course leads us to: "I really hope Kid Cudi finds some help, but as for his record, I’ve listened to Speedin’ Bullet 2 Heaven more than I have half of my favorite records of 2015, and can safely say that it has been one of my sincerest joys this season."
Of course, the reason I'm taking the time to share this with you all is because I abso-fucking-lutely love this album, and want to see if I really am 1 of 5. Oh, and it's grunge. Not rap, pop, hip hop, etc.
