We’ve all been there: It’s late at night, we’re putting down our paint brush, we’re pondering our life’s work, our oeuvre, and we think, “I’ve reached truly staggering artistic heights.”
Such was the case with Kid Cudi, who, overnight, as he was painting, listened to Indicud, his 2013 album, and experienced a moment of clarity.
Damn my discography is fuckin masterful. Listenin to Indicud while I paint, I was just on fire producing this album, the bars, the hooks. Im gonna dive into Satellite flight next

By his own impartial assessment, Cudi was “just on fire producing this album,” as evidenced by “the bars, the hooks.” Indicud includes fan favorites like “Just What I Am” and, of course, “Unfuckittable,” titles that suggest Cudi had at least some sense of the album’s resonance.
Forgive me if this seems like this is just hittin me now, but during those times I was in my head about alot and couldnt see what others did. Its a beautiful thing when albums age well, and I feel like all mine do.

Cudi released eight solo albums after Indicud. His discography also includes projects with Dot Da Genius and Kanye West. Per the tweets—which drew a near-unanimous response—he’ll revisit Satellite next.
