![]() Sharing his journeyĪct 1, titled “The End of Day,” introduces us to Cudi and his state of mind. The album’s five-act structure (denoted by the CD’s liner notes) guides listeners through the album, which Cudi calls the “soundtrack to his life” on the similarly titled song. Storytelling sits at the core of this album. He writes a vulnerable and honest self-portrait without puffing his chest or couching emotion in glamour. Here, Cudi bares his soul as only he can. In that sense, he’s become a sort of leader in the hip-hop community for his openness and willingness to broach topics often treated as taboo in hip-hop. In the ten years since Man on the Moon, Cudi has become an outspoken voice of mental illness and drug abuse.
