    Idk, I love Surfin' but I've overplayed it and also The Commander would be perfect as the last song
    I really like Releaser but I see what you mean

    Yeah that would've been dope, but only if they made the gap between Cudi's hook and the "goodbye cruel world" part a lot shorter

    I honestly don't think any of the MOTM's are as strong as that is and I get that it's a mixtape. But I understand people don't feel comfortable rating a mixtape higher than an album. Sure. Doesn't change the fact that Da Drought 3 and Dedication 2 are probably better than any album Wayne has made. Sometimes, that's just how it is. Wiz isn't ever going to top Kush & OJ and that was a mixtape. Just how it is in this generation. You ask me, So Far Gone still feels like the most complete and cohesive body of work by Drake, today. But you're more than welcome to disagree or debate me over why an album just absolutely has to be placed over a mixtape in terms of qualitative rankings. Why? Because it was available to buy physical copies of? Doesn't matter.

    One of the only mixtapes I feel comfortable calling a classic and knowing I'm not exaggerating.

    I don't think Luke's posts had anything to do with the type of project it was...even I'd say MOTM 2 (and, most likely, MOTM 1 [I'd have to relisten to it again]) are both better projects, in general, than AKNC.

    Like I don't think anybody from any generation would say there's a Future album better than Beast Mode, 56 Nights, or Monster.

    I'll agree to disagree. But I just don't feel that way. I wish Cudi could f---in' flow like he did on "Spazzin'". He did N.E.R.D. so dirty how he just took their beat and renegaded the original.

    No because A Kid Named Cudi has f---ing classic perfect tracks, but it also has weak tracks. The impact and legacy it left made it such a masterpiece but it had more flaws than MOTM and MOTM2 had. Of course it's still one of the best tapes ever made, but in my opinion the MOTM's were the developed and finished ideas of AKNC.

    Honestly it's hard to rank Cudi's albums during his prime because everyone who experienced those albums during a certain time in their life would connect to one more than the other
