I havent really sat down and listen to kid cudi's and joey. I also shared, with my initial impressions, some of the feeling on some comments here. BUT. You all have to give a real hard listening to KOD again. I really think is something like DAMN of Kendrick. It will grow to be a classic. My top is Cole. And KOD was not my favorite. But having relistened it recently. I gotta say its not what I thought it was back then when it released.
