about this album

KIDS SEE GHOSTS is the the only studio album by the American hip-hop duo composed of Kanye West and Kid Cudi. It was released on June 8, 2018, through Wicked Awesome Records and GOOD Music, and distributed by Def Jam Recordings. Prior to the release, West and Cudi had collaborated on each others' work since 2008, although they experienced personal quarrels due to creative differences. The first studio sessions for the album began after the two reunited in late 2016. Guest contributions are included on KIDS SEE GHOSTS from Pusha T, Yasiin Bey, and Ty Dolla Sign, as well as a vocal sample of Louis Prima, who is credited posthumously as a featured artist. Kids See Ghosts handled the majority of the stylistically fragmented production that includes varying elements, with further contributions by Dot da Genius, Mike Dean, and Plain Pat, among others. The album was the third of five records produced by West in Jackson Hole as a part of the "Wyoming Sessions", each being released weekly in the summer of 2018. It succeeded the release of Pusha T's "Daytona" and West's "ye", while preceded the release of Nas' "Nasir" and Teyana Taylor's "K.T.S.E.". Commentators noted the genre of KIDS SEE GHOSTS as a fusion of psychedelia and hip-hop.
