Ever since G.O.O.D. Music announced a blockbuster summer, Kanye West & Kid Cudi’s joint album has generated tremendous expectations. With the impact of 808 & Heartbreak in mind, this all-out semi-long format feels natural, as the personalities of both artists converge. Edgy and sensitive, they both went through tough times and despair, sprinkled with some self-destructive tendencies. And it’s from this darkness that the light of Kids See Ghosts emerged. Featuring seven tracks like all the projects of this series, the two damaged artists face their demons, experimenting with their melancholy to shape it into an ironclad raw material. Kanye raps like a madman on each track, and Cudi shrouds with his ample yet febrile voice the production’s flights, a mix of wild folk rock, tribal drums and youthful freedom. To start things off, Pusha T breaks the earth open with Feel The Love, a fault from which all the ghosts of the two teenagers of American rap music escape. With great restraint on the eponymous track, Mos Def drops his best interpretation in years, and Kurt Cobain lends his depressive guitar chords for the very last notes of the project. Between horror and awe, musical Yōkais fly through the air, providing with Freeee a great sequel to the epic breath of Ye’s Ghost Town. Between the invocation of destruction and the journal of a rebirth, the symbiosis of Kanye West and Kid Cudi’s contradictions is complete, for what can be considered as one of the very best projects of their respective discographies. © Aurélien Chapuis / Qobuz
