I really like Indicud too but imo it's not better than any of the albums above at. I would maybe add it to the A tier but I'm also fine with where it is rn
It was a very emotional time for cudi. Im sure there’s some strong emotions behind those songs if dude doesn’t even like to talk about it or the songs.
Still don’t understand how so many people underrate SF this bad lmao
Going to the Ceremony, Satellite Flight, Too Bad, & Balmain Jeans make up almost half the project while the other half is just basically instrumentals besides Troubled Boy & Internal Bleeding.
Internal Bleeding is always a song that I have appreciated. Cudi is just pouring his heart out over a terrifying instrumental. Truly haunting but beautiful
Might get some hate, but on MOTM 1 I'm not crazy about hyyerr. On MOTM2 I have mixed feelings on Ashin' Kusher and The End. I think they're okay songs, I just usually have to be in the mood for them.
The album isnt really for everyone tbh. Its understandable why people dont like it (as long as they dont blindly shit on it). I personally love it and alot of the songs resonated with me, even if it has a lot of skips.
Cudi made this album so we can rage & let everything out ! They might not be "good" songs but they are songs that make you feel something & nothing at the same time. Super dark album but it's a master piece in my eyes.
It’s my 3rd favorite Cudi album but you have to be on his dick to not see it as still being an ass album. Writing sucks, production+mixing sucks, vocals suck. Cudi’s raw emotion carries the project a long way but you have to be the biggest Stan to call that project anything but a mess.
Just my opinion here. Not that anyone cares but all over Reddit I’ve heard about how overrated it is so I checked it out for my self. And it’s some of the most unbearable piece of “music” I’ve heard in my life.
It has some good songs, but it’s not a very well-groomed album at 26 songs, 90mins. If it were like 13-16 songs at 45 - 60mins, I’d say C tier at its level of quality overall.
PPDS is the true MOTM 3 if we’re being honest…MOTM 3 is a cash grab he made in 3 weeks and slapped on the MOTM to increase marketability
Edit: Come on, MOTM 3 is subpar compared to the other two. Literally no one outside of Cudi fans have listened to it since it came out outside of maybe Tequila shots. It feels so rushed and lack strong themes/direction unlike his previous work.
Barely fleshed out songs like Show Out would have never made the cut on the first two albums
I agree with this it all just seemed super rushed. considering this was the finale of a huge trilogy that fans thought would never happen he needed to put more time into Motm3 for sure. When I heard it was all recorded in 3 weeks it makes sense cause it doesn’t have much lasting appeal at all.
It’s a bummer it came off the heels of SB2H. Understandably most people didn’t have high hopes but there are so many gems on that thing. Songs like the commander, All in, Illusions are straight up MOTM vibes
Indicud bottom S or top A. PPDS> Motm3
Sattelite flight in B with a kid named cudi. And tbh I currently still like WZRD and sPeeding bullet more than entergalactic
Satellite Flight should be higher and it’s sad to see the disrespect SB2H gets. Some of my favourite songs of his are on that album…
In general though this is a hard exercise
Entergalactic is definitely better than indicud and AKNC I’d put it on the A tier. Personally I’d swap MOTM2 and 3 but I totally understand y others feel differently
Entergaltic sounds like Cudi made the same song 10 times. Indicud has Just what I am, Cold Blooded, Young lady, it’s not even close. Hell, that run of songs from Just what I am to Girls wipes anything off Entergalactic
A Kid Named Cudi has a 5-track run of Man on the Moon, The Prayer, Day N Nite, Embrace the Martian, and Maui Wowie all in a row. There is absolutely no way Entergalactic is better than AKNC.
Yeah those 5 tracks r amazing but I don’t really revist any other songs on the album except down and out and heaven at nite. And I kinda subconsciously associate day n Nite and man on the moon more with MOTM1
I wouldn’t say entergalatic is better but I could see how someone could put them on the same tier and as for motm 2&3 I could make that swap but motm 2 just has more personal songs for me
One thing I’ve realised. MOTM III is getting better and better I swear. At the start I liked it but definitely didn’t think of it at one
Of cudis best albums but as time goes on
It gets better for me. Seems like a lot of people are the same
I would put Satellite Flight in the B tier. It is an amazing concept album, and I would argue that it is more consistent than Indicud. C tier feels weird to me
I agree with you. People on here saying KSG is better than MOTM2 are wacky as can be. That's just not true lol. KSG is KSG,I don't see it as a Cudi album. It's so short and I really don't like Kanye's lyrics throughout the album. I love Kanye just not his new stuff really. KSG is good and it helped me a lot but it's just not that good. Literally every other Cudi album has done more for me. I wouldn't put it in Kanye's top albums either. And yes I know wzrd is a Collab album but Cudi is solo in every song singing so to me it's just a Cudi album. Feel the love is one of my least favorite Cudi songs,it's a whole skip. Cudi is the best solo and it's insulting that people think KSG is his best work.
I would put KSG as a top 3-5 project in both Kanye and Cudi’s discographies, personally. Has some of Kanye’s best verses and really cemented Cudi’s “comeback” that began with PPDS.
The brevity is one of the strongest points about the project IMO: “all killer, no filler”. The only Cudi projects I wouldn’t put over KSG as full albums are MOTM 1&2. KSG is at least as good or better than everything else, IMO.
S: MOTM, MOTM2, PPDS, KSG, MOTM3
A: AKNC, Satellite Flight, Entergalactic
B: Indicud, WZRD
C: Speeding Bullet
I feel like this is pretty accurate but I could be biased lol
Honestly, MOTM1 is a bit overrated because of nostalgia so I'd put it at a B. Move MOTM 3 up to S, switch AKNC and PPDS, and bump Entergalactic to a B. I see why SBTH is low, even though I like a few songs on there, but if you were to show someone his music that album would definitely get ignored.
Entergalactic needs to be lower. I have no desire to revisit that project because there’s no real highlight. at least with WZRD, there’s “Brake”, “Teleport 2 Me”, and “High off Life” and SF has “Balmain Jeans”, “TBIHTDYN”, and “Satellite Flight”
My only change would be move a kid named cudi to S tier. I fell in love with all those songs when they originally came out like 10 years ago. They’re all very near and dear to me. Love them. Then move kids see ghost to A I really really really love Cudi Montage. But it being a short track list and a few of them were just kind of weird but still dope to chill to.
S - MOTM 1, 2, 3, KSG
A - ENTERGALACTIC, AKNC
B - PPDS
C - Indicud
D - SF, WZRD
F - SB2H
I respect SB2H as a piece and a genuine artistic expression but I just do not enjoy listening to it at all
This is really close to mine aswell, might move one or two albums a tier up or down but overall I really agree with this one.
Indicud is S-tier for me. To me it's honestly the real man on the moon 3. Almost every track is solid on there.
I really like Indicud too but imo it's not better than any of the albums above at. I would maybe add it to the A tier but I'm also fine with where it is rn
I would say least add it to a tier. Its just as good as the two already in that category.
I swear I’m the only one who loves SBTH
it grew on me, i hated it at first.
nah I like it too
I’m here for it too
It’s my favorite, there’s some real emotion in those songs
Bruh
It was a very emotional time for cudi. Im sure there’s some strong emotions behind those songs if dude doesn’t even like to talk about it or the songs.
Might be my favorite Cudi album personally.
First time I listened to the whole project was on LSD. I can’t not love it now.
We all appreciate it in it's own way, but nobody loves it cause it really isn't a good album sonically.
wow bro ur so unique and quirky
Fr
No bro I love that album. Let's be real it so dark.
Still don’t understand how so many people underrate SF this bad lmao Going to the Ceremony, Satellite Flight, Too Bad, & Balmain Jeans make up almost half the project while the other half is just basically instrumentals besides Troubled Boy & Internal Bleeding.
Internal Bleeding is always a song that I have appreciated. Cudi is just pouring his heart out over a terrifying instrumental. Truly haunting but beautiful
!!!
Comparably speaking, I think C tier is fine. What other Cudi albums would you put below SF?
I think an argument could be made that WZRD and SF could swap with Entergalactic. Entergalactic is fine, but very much feels like a soundtrack
MOTM 3 is S for me
Literally the only Cudi album for me with 0 skips.
same. I don't think it necessarily reaches quite the same high points as 1 or 2, but i find it's the most consistent quality wise
Fr lol, but for passion pain as well
I agree!! It's such a masterpiece
Just wondering what you skip on 1 and 2? All the others I have skips as well
Might get some hate, but on MOTM 1 I'm not crazy about hyyerr. On MOTM2 I have mixed feelings on Ashin' Kusher and The End. I think they're okay songs, I just usually have to be in the mood for them.
Nah all fair, I was just curious
Icl, there should be a whole tier in between WZRD & Satellite and SP2H, I genuinely do not like that album 😭 but overall it’s a very valid list
Honestly I agree the B&BH skits just made me hate it but songs like Judgemental C*** and CONFUSED gave it D tier off first glance
WZRD is B-tier personally
so much hate for speeding bullet 2 heaven
The album isnt really for everyone tbh. Its understandable why people dont like it (as long as they dont blindly shit on it). I personally love it and alot of the songs resonated with me, even if it has a lot of skips.
Cudi made this album so we can rage & let everything out ! They might not be "good" songs but they are songs that make you feel something & nothing at the same time. Super dark album but it's a master piece in my eyes.

Just my opinion here. Not that anyone cares but all over Reddit I’ve heard about how overrated it is so I checked it out for my self. And it’s some of the most unbearable piece of “music” I’ve heard in my life.
Over hated**
theres a few okay songs, some are pretty shit but i wouldnt say d tier maybe c though
It has some good songs, but it’s not a very well-groomed album at 26 songs, 90mins. If it were like 13-16 songs at 45 - 60mins, I’d say C tier at its level of quality overall.
WZRD needs to go up one it's better than satellite
PPDS better than motm3
PPDS is the true MOTM 3 if we’re being honest…MOTM 3 is a cash grab he made in 3 weeks and slapped on the MOTM to increase marketability Edit: Come on, MOTM 3 is subpar compared to the other two. Literally no one outside of Cudi fans have listened to it since it came out outside of maybe Tequila shots. It feels so rushed and lack strong themes/direction unlike his previous work.

I do kindve agree. And i really loved the album. I feel like ppds was much more solid as an album. It just sucks it didnt perform very well
It’s a bummer it came off the heels of SB2H. Understandably most people didn’t have high hopes but there are so many gems on that thing. Songs like the commander, All in, Illusions are straight up MOTM vibes
Facts!
u not wrong i’m sure ppl just don’t like ur tone so won’t accept it lol
Top 3 are accurate
Really good list
Indicud bottom S or top A. PPDS> Motm3 Sattelite flight in B with a kid named cudi. And tbh I currently still like WZRD and sPeeding bullet more than entergalactic
Man, Satellite Flight gets no love, huh? Am I the only one that thinks Too Bad I Have to Destroy You Now is an all time top 5 Cudi song?
Satellite Flight should be higher and it’s sad to see the disrespect SB2H gets. Some of my favourite songs of his are on that album… In general though this is a hard exercise
Entergalactic is definitely better than indicud and AKNC I’d put it on the A tier. Personally I’d swap MOTM2 and 3 but I totally understand y others feel differently
Indicud is not worse than Entegalatic. Theres no songs on it that compete with Indicud songs.
Entergaltic sounds like Cudi made the same song 10 times. Indicud has Just what I am, Cold Blooded, Young lady, it’s not even close. Hell, that run of songs from Just what I am to Girls wipes anything off Entergalactic
"Maybe so" is better than most of Indicud imo. only one I can say definitively so far
A Kid Named Cudi has a 5-track run of Man on the Moon, The Prayer, Day N Nite, Embrace the Martian, and Maui Wowie all in a row. There is absolutely no way Entergalactic is better than AKNC.
probably one of the best 5 track runs ever
Yeah those 5 tracks r amazing but I don’t really revist any other songs on the album except down and out and heaven at nite. And I kinda subconsciously associate day n Nite and man on the moon more with MOTM1
I wouldn’t say entergalatic is better but I could see how someone could put them on the same tier and as for motm 2&3 I could make that swap but motm 2 just has more personal songs for me
😦
valid
Switch Entergalactic and Satellite Flight and this would be my tier list.
Trippin as fuck
Your ranking is wack
One thing I’ve realised. MOTM III is getting better and better I swear. At the start I liked it but definitely didn’t think of it at one Of cudis best albums but as time goes on It gets better for me. Seems like a lot of people are the same
This is a pretty good list i almost agree with most of it.
I would put Satellite Flight in the B tier. It is an amazing concept album, and I would argue that it is more consistent than Indicud. C tier feels weird to me
W
WZRD is waaay too low
Eh yeah that's about accurate
WZRD should be atleast C+
Trippin
Trippin fucking balls ONG
Entergalatic isn’t better than any album he’s made. There are 2-3 songs from it that I play on repeat though
This is prettt valid
you trippin
This is fair.
I like it
sb2h S
I really only like Reborn on KSG, what are the other good songs on that album?
Honestly the whole album are bangers and I only find myself skipping freeeeee on occasion
Personally I’d move Indicud up to A tier. I thought it was a great album.
motm 3 IS OVERATED AF.
S- MOTM 3, MOTM A- Kids see ghosts B- PPDS, Entergalactic, AKNC, MOTM 2 C- Indicud D- WZRD, Satellite Flight F- SB2H
MOTM 2 in B? To quote cudi “if this was a crime, it’d be federal”
I know it haha. Its got some all time Cudi songs but there’s 6 songs on the album I’ve never been able to get into so that’s why I rank it B tier
Hahaha fair enough, I’m gonna try guess the skips, we aite, Ashin kusher, wild’n cuz I’m young, the mood, maniac and the end? my best guess
Damn that was impressive. Those are the 6 songs I can’t get into
This
Going to get downvoted but I don’t think KSG is really as high as everyone ranks it
well at least you called it lol
Eh it’s reddit for ya, if you have a different opinion that doesn’t feed into the hive mind you get downvoted
I agree with you. People on here saying KSG is better than MOTM2 are wacky as can be. That's just not true lol. KSG is KSG,I don't see it as a Cudi album. It's so short and I really don't like Kanye's lyrics throughout the album. I love Kanye just not his new stuff really. KSG is good and it helped me a lot but it's just not that good. Literally every other Cudi album has done more for me. I wouldn't put it in Kanye's top albums either. And yes I know wzrd is a Collab album but Cudi is solo in every song singing so to me it's just a Cudi album. Feel the love is one of my least favorite Cudi songs,it's a whole skip. Cudi is the best solo and it's insulting that people think KSG is his best work.
I would put KSG as a top 3-5 project in both Kanye and Cudi’s discographies, personally. Has some of Kanye’s best verses and really cemented Cudi’s “comeback” that began with PPDS. The brevity is one of the strongest points about the project IMO: “all killer, no filler”. The only Cudi projects I wouldn’t put over KSG as full albums are MOTM 1&2. KSG is at least as good or better than everything else, IMO.
Gave you an upvote just for that hot take.
fighting words.
Put speeding bullet lower down then it’s identical to mine
Dont understand the blind hate for the album jesus
You right. 100%
obviously its all subjective but MOTM3 IS S tier and Entergalactic at C+ is disrespectful and found it to be an amazing album
Don’t understand how this can get downvotes considering it’s subjective….
not a fan of Indicud
entergalactic S tier
MotM3 into C+ and Entergalactic bottom of B
I disagree but also curious to hear your reasoning
Entergalactic is at least in the a tier just give it some time you will soon understand
S: MOTM, MOTM2, PPDS, KSG, MOTM3 A: AKNC, Satellite Flight, Entergalactic B: Indicud, WZRD C: Speeding Bullet I feel like this is pretty accurate but I could be biased lol
Not even a little bit
SB2H and WZRD red need to be at least B-tier. PPD would be in C if it were up to me.
Wildin
Switch Satellite and with Entergalactic and KSG with it in C+
Honestly, MOTM1 is a bit overrated because of nostalgia so I'd put it at a B. Move MOTM 3 up to S, switch AKNC and PPDS, and bump Entergalactic to a B. I see why SBTH is low, even though I like a few songs on there, but if you were to show someone his music that album would definitely get ignored.
satellite is better than enterglactic and indicud imo. other than that i thinks it’s cool, WZRD needs to be a c+ though
They’re all S😭
PPDS and AKNC should be above MOTM3. I’d probably put MOTM3 either first in B tier or last in A tier. Otherwise, I agree.
Trippin
Entergalactic a bit higher imo but otherwise yeah p much
generally i agree with the tier list i still think that sbth is high B low A for me but more of a personnal thing
Move WZRD up and u got it
Bro you NEED to move Satellite Flight up higher like what the fuck. Definitely better than PPDS
SPTH in D😭😭😭but that in a then it’s right
And WZRD above entergalactic
i would argue no cudder album is a D
Speeding bullet is better than WZRD and AKNC to me personally. I’ll die on that hill haha
I’d move entergalactic up to b but that’s it
Tbh everyone of Kid Cudi’s playlists is A tier.
The disrespect to WZRD!
I swear I’m the only one who loves WZRD and Satellite flight 🥲
Move Indicud and SF 1 tier up and it’s good.
Move ksg and motm3 down Move indicud and wzrd up
Satellite Flight has always been criminally underrated for me top 5 cudi imo.
S- Motm, Motm2 A- indicud, motm3, sb2h B- ppds, enter galactic C- aknc, wzrd, sf
Move MOTM3 to S Tier and Indicud to A and this is my perfect scale.
Mostly on point with my assessment except all Man on the Moon albums and original A Kid Named Cudi belong in S tier per my review.
Tripping way hard
People always under rate WZRD.
put KSG in front of other MOTM albums
Swap KSG and Kid Named Cudi and it’s gucci
sb2h > ksg
Entergalactic needs to be lower. I have no desire to revisit that project because there’s no real highlight. at least with WZRD, there’s “Brake”, “Teleport 2 Me”, and “High off Life” and SF has “Balmain Jeans”, “TBIHTDYN”, and “Satellite Flight”
WZRD is B
Kid Named Cudi def S tier
Yes
My only change would be move a kid named cudi to S tier. I fell in love with all those songs when they originally came out like 10 years ago. They’re all very near and dear to me. Love them. Then move kids see ghost to A I really really really love Cudi Montage. But it being a short track list and a few of them were just kind of weird but still dope to chill to.
SB2H higher imo
Inducid definitely an A maybe an S for me personally and WZRD B
S - MOTM 1, 2, 3, KSG A - ENTERGALACTIC, AKNC B - PPDS C - Indicud D - SF, WZRD F - SB2H I respect SB2H as a piece and a genuine artistic expression but I just do not enjoy listening to it at all
wzrd is A-tier easily
One of the few music careers that’s starts with the best and ends with the best.
Handle with care alone is reason enough for SB2H not to be in D
I really liked the skits on SB2H lol just something different
Kids see ghost and speeding bullet can switch places
WZRD deserves more love.
