This album single handedly saved a generation of kids.

i seriously believe that this album comes into your life at the perfect time

Every fan has a Cudi story. Its almost like you can feel him saying "I'm going through some shit too, lets escape for an hour and listen to some music."

as a massive cudi fan this is so fucking dope to see! Props to you & your dad man. Keep killing it with the videos too

This album is timeless. In 50 years a sad kid will listen to this album for the first time and it will save his/her life.

The fact that your dad doesn’t knock his beer off the table is impressive.

To this day, I still do not believe Kid Cudi gets all the credit he truly deserves for what he's done for the music industry. This man took Hip-Hop and molded it into his own unique style that influenced so many different artists and producers for years to come. Ill never forget when I downloaded "A Kid Named Cudi" mixtape by Plain Pat for the first time on my IPOD which was released right before he added most of the songs to this first studio album. I hung out with all my friends after school at their house for 4 days straight with that mixtape on repeat nonstop. Cudi is A Legend. Thank you guys for your reactions and input!

this album was like a brother to me this album was like a father to me this album was like the only family i ever had

after watching this and seeing him like cudi open up his emotions, you should do 808s And Heartbreak eventually

Dad’s emotional intelligence out the roof

I instantly started fighting tears at 3:18. Those sounds brought back soo many memories of a depressed lonely 19 year old mourning the death of my father. This video punches me in the feels every time the dad is moved by something cudi says

I feel like Cudi fans would hype a older guy up being at one of his concerts lol

Even though your father joked about Cudi replacing him in your teen years, I can tell your dad has raised you in a safe and comfortable household...Seriously cool father you have...People would kill to have a father to connect with like this...

Your channels poppin'. You & your dad have a winning formula

No feeling will ever complete with lying down on your back, staring at the ceiling, putting on your headphones putting on a Cudi playlist and letting everything melt away you as you just focus on the music and thinking of nothing else.

First time I listened to "Sky Might Fall" I flipped out. That song is so goddamn good. I love Cudi.

Really need to see him react to Frank Ocean’s Blonde

This album is so Important to a lot of people. Caught myself closing my eyes and just vibing throughout the video.

My best friend took his life when I was 16 years old, and this album helped me through it. Pursuit of happiness was our favorite song and 13 years later it still brings me to tears every time I hear it.

Dad has such a good grasp on music not only by ear but by just pure production and orchestration. He’s been in the business a while it sounds like!

2:50 look at the eye contact he gives his son, it just shows he’s truly listening and giving his full attention to what his son is saying. That is so dope, the importance of being present for your kid no matter the age is more important than anything we can give our kids physically

He already listened to Kanye and now Cudi, its time for KIDS SEE GHOSTS 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾

Haven't heard soundtrack to my life but as soon as I heard the line "I got some issues that nobody can see, and all of these emotions pouring out of me it made me instantly tear up and get sent back to when I was a kid in foster homes and cudis music is what I needed most in my life.

Kid Cudis vocal registry and humming especially is fascinating. Online you’ll find entire threads devoted to his best humming for therapy, and remember seeing a study on him and other musicians regarding their singing and it’s effects on the brain. Will link here if I find it again, but definitely feel his voice giving me the shivers, even now listening to cut clips despite growing up on the music. Man on the Moon and the Prayer are forever lifesaving

Your dad seems to enjoy cudi and kanye together, and Thats why you should introduce him to Kids see ghosts. Completly different vibe and a perfect synergy of the two :).

Pops, go to whatever concert you’d like. He put it perfectly; there will be a few people who’ll look at you weird, but you wouldn’t want their opinions anyway. Nothing wrong with you feeling 22 again. Worked all week, paid your bills and now allow yourself to enjoy yourself

It’s not an exaggeration to say that Kid Cudi saved my life, especially this album. It came out my freshman year of high school and I honestly don’t know what I would’ve done without it. Cudi will forever have a special place in my heart ❤️

I think it’s dope how your dad picked up how big day n nite was just from listening to it once. It’s like he could tell just how it sounded it must have been a big hit. I was in middle school when man on the moon came out and literally everyone I knew whether you liked rap or not fw day n nite

What's mad about Cudi is the amount you learn about him, just from his music

I'm so jealous of your dad getting to experience these great albums for the first time

hearing your dad talk about getting chills from the music is such a weirdly validating moment

my dad is 62, bought him this album on cd like 10 years ago and he still loves and listens to it

“In My Dreams” is one of best opening tracks, period. Hypnotizing, trippy, delusional… Fuck. It gets me EVERY FUCKING TIME.

These reactions are heartwarming, and it's lovely how open minded the Dad is (sorry, don't know your name). Hip-hop is an incredible genre of music. Just remember that it's kind of like food. There's junk that tastes good without much substance, and good stuff that nourishes. A lot of radio hip-hop is like a burger with fries. Rightly or wrongly, it's what a lot of people use to form their view of the entire genre. Your son is feeding you the best of the best. You're lucky to have each other. :)

Kid Cudi got me through high school. Listening to him now brings back so many memories and chills. He was sent here for our generation for real

pursuit of happiness, soundtrack 2 my life and up up and away make me so emotional. This album is a certified masterpiece and an essential listen for all music lovers

My dad passed 3 years ago. He was my best friend. This fills something in my soul that I didn’t know was missing. Y’all are awesome. L O V E

Life of Pablo would be sick

"Cudi Zone" is my favorite of this album, but this whole album is a piece of art!

So much respect to him for listening to this with his dad. Such a vulnerable side of yourself to reveal to someone.

48:16 that little smile you give when pursuit of happiness comes on, knowing your dads about to have a full on experience 😂

i love being able to see someone experience this album for the first time. it’s addicting

My dad died when I was a kid. I wish I would have had the chance to talk to my dad about how hard life was for me and how music helped me. Your very lucky bro. Thanks for sharing this gives me a glimpse of what that might have been like.

Dude this is my first time listening to the whole album besides “Day n Night” and “ Pursuit of Happiness”because I never thought how impactful and influential an album can be when you piece the rest of the album. Man honestly I should’ve made video reacting to this video because it was that special of an expirence.

As someone whose now 33, and lost their father at age 10, this is such a beautiful thing to watch. Helps me live a little vicariously through the 2 of you. I can feel the love. Love to see it ❤✌💯

I was nervous your dad was going to knock over his beer the whole time.

This album came out when I was 17 and it helped me so much. It made me realize I wasn’t alone in the way I felt and he was the reason I asked for help and now I’m 28 and I would not have made it here without Cudi.

Soundtrack 2 my life is one of my favorite songs of all time. Always gets me emotional and reminiscing of the time when I was a lil kid.

Your dad was spot on with his assumption about “Up, up and away” being the closer at a set. The first time I saw him in concert he closed with it and it fit so perfectly.

Definitely would like to see MOTM2: Legend of Mr. Rager. Arguably more raw and dark than MOTM. Love these videos man, keep up the great work!

I’m 35…this album came out when I was 23. It got me through the hardest time in my life by a long shot. My mother had just passed away, I had moved to another country, and was hopelessly caught up in my addictions. Thankful to have had it in my life at the time and not sure what woulda happened if I didn’t. I really wish I could of listened to this album with my mom…she would of loved it

I'm so thankful that this video exists and that I came across it. After highschool my father committed suicide and I listened to this album religiously for a long time in my grieving process. It truly is a magical piece of art that captures many emotions from Kid Cudi, including lots of references to Cudi's depression processing his own father's death. I'm glad that your father enjoys this album! That's so awesome to see. Thank you again for the content, cheers!

That sly side eye when you dropped the pursuit of happiness at 48:16 🤣🙌🏻. Like "Dads gonna think this is a banger"

I love thinking Scott’s at home watching this feeling proud of himself for making such amazing music for all generations

Hands down my favorite album of all time. The emotions I get from the lyrics and the beats is somethin else.

Wow the emotions I went through watching you show your father Kid Cudi and I bawled my eyes out at end knowing someone at least got to experience this with their own father. Wish my pops was around to share him an artist that truly helped me through the darkest times of my life. Mad love to you and your pops

absolutely love how open minded your dad is about music.

I’m hoping for a Mac Miller album! And this is to answer your pops question about the age. I’m 27 and one of THE biggest CuDi fans, and if I were to see you there, I’d question in but not in a rudely manner but once I’d see you enjoying the music id have no questions, just pure respect.

"This album single handedly saved a whole generation of kids." This isn't hyperbole. Kid Cudi/Scott did more for my generation and those like me than any other artist/hip hop star. Depression. Unreturned love. (He who increases knowledge increases sorrow). King Solomon said that. The wisest man to ever put words to paper. And it is a universal truth. Just so happens that many of the people who found Cudi and that he helped also happen to be highly Intelligent and gatherers of knowledge. Not all. There are almost no absolutes in life. But many of us are that. Than you Kid.

Man.. I bet that was so special to sit down and share that whole thing with his dad. Honestly made me tear up a couple of times. Beautiful!

Listened to this a lot in high school but as singles and never the full album. I'm loving experiencing it with you both. Pursuit of Happiness always made me cry in high school.

The way Kevin prefers to listen to albums with the lyrics alongside makes these videos so much more engaging. Having him unpack everything while also enjoying the music itself makes it feel like listening to these albums for the first time again. I check your channel all the time to see if a new video is up lmao they're such a cool experience.

Loved watching this. My father and I used to stay up late, have a few drinks, and share music with each other from our respective generations. The conversations you guys had and your father’s perspective made me feel like I was back in my hometown talking music with my old man. Keep it up!

it's so great to see you guys genuinely enjoy and appreciate music as pieces of art and everything that happens within and around it. Feels like one is sitting there next to you.

I just listened to this album, and I can’t believe I missed such a beautiful piece of art. This project is one of the best things I’ve ever heard. I’m going through a hard time with family members passing away and this album is one of the few things holding me together. 10/10 album.

How many followers until you’re passing a blunt back and forth listening to Chronic 2001?

This is the coolest thing I have ever watched. To show someone so close to you something that you listen to on a daily basis and vibe with so much, it's so good. I can't wait to watch more.

This album brings back so many memories and this video just made me happy af. Love how in depth his dad gets when talking about the album. One of the most influential albums of all time, absolutely timeless.

Pops got shivers down his spine listening to Soundtrack 2 my life for the first time... same pops.. same..

MOTM was influential for its time after 808s and Heartbreak (which he co wrote). Being openly emotional and admitting to one's flaws like drug use was a major shift in hip-hop from the 2000s macho gangster and dope dealer bars (not that either are bad, just documenting that change)

this had me tear up at times. cudi is a beautiful artist that brings me to very nostalgic highs and even lows. there was no better album to introduce your dad to his music with. i wish in some ways i could share this sort of moment with my pops and like your dad said, open up a part of myself to him. congrats on the success, keep it up

i’m getting chills listening to this in the background as i re live all the memories of listening to this album for the first time

Just listened to MOTM 1 for the first time as a junior in high school. It is a time capsule.. I’ve always kind of had exposure to Cudi with Kanye and all of those collabs, but this was my first true solo Cudi album.. incredible, absolute classic in my book

It’s not as necessary for this album, but I really appreciate how you print the lyrics and features to have your Dad follow along with.

You guys are freaking awesome. This is one of my personal favorites as well. It's amazing how many times I've listened to it and yet watching a video like this brings back the chills like I've never heard it before. Then seeing the reactions and hearing you guys talk about it is just very special! Thank you. You guys deserve to blow up!

sharing this experience with your Dad and the world is truly a healing experience for all. Much love you both. Been revisiting this album thiis past month or so, it rocked my world in high school and is even more relevant today.

This is honestly beautiful see you guys bond over these albums, me and my mom love playing this album together, first hip hop album she ever liked, thanks guys

I don't have a good relationship with my father at all. He's been verbally abusive and belittling throughout my entire life and has never once showed any interest in me as a person or any of my hobbies. Seeing you interact with your father and sharing this piece of yourself with him and him expressing full interest and enthusiasm in it is very heartwarming to me. Amazing content guys ♥️

i have been watching you guys constantly these past days. i go to music when I’m in my most vulnerable and lonely spot. sharing music and artist like with parents is like really opening up to them. this is amazing keep doing what ur doin

The stars aligned and this video was put in my recommended. I’m 30 minutes in and I love what’s happening. Really cool to see you and your dad bond over such a monumental album. Love it and love you guys already.

Wish he would have heard the ‘Man on the Moon’ bonus track, really puts into perspective how different/self aware cudi was about his sound when the album first came out

This is so much better, more professional, and more substantial than pretty much all the other "react" channels I can think of. Having two guys that know a thing or two about music and are there to actually appreciate it and not just scream and overreact for views is refreshing.

Damn the shivers your pops was getting takes me back I’m glad he could relate to that feeling. Cudi saved so many of us man, 23 and I’m grateful to cudi

I've never seen your channel before, but from the bottom of my heart I have to say that I am so thankful to come across you guys when I did. This brought me so much happiness during a dark time, the combination of one of my all-time favorite albums and getting to see someone experience it for their first time, what a fucking magical thing. You guys keep it up, seriously.

31:31 “I feel like dancing to this one is it appropriate?” That was such a great moment haha

I love this channel, I found it a few days ago and can’t stop watching keep it up!

I love watching your dad fall in love with this album and Cudi. Cudi got me through the darkest days of my life when this album came out it helped keep me alive. Forever grateful. This music is apart of my soul.

I just found this channel and I’ve been binging all of your videos. I love the bond you two share over listening to music together. 😭

Definitely gotta do swimming… I have a feeling as soon as he hears come back to earth he’ll be hooked. Mac Miller was a real ass dude and made some real ass relatable music for any age

As a young guy, if I were to see an older person at a rap concert, or any "young people" music concert for that matter, I would automatically respect them for their open mindedness. Too often you see people scoff at the generation below them, claiming yours had "real music". Our generation will do it too, and I hope to be like your dad.

Watching these videos literally make me excited to have a kid so I can do this same thing. Truly beautiful thing you guys are doing.

I've always said this is probably one of the best albums ever released by any artist. Played this on repeat for years. Still one of my go to's.

I love how much he loved intergalactic. Its because it uses sounds he knows. I think he would love daft punk random access memories. Talk about funk.

Cudis music feels reassuring, feels like a big warm hug. It’s that feeling of relief after a good cry, that calm after the storm. Also Dad check out the deluxe edition when you revisit this album. It’s got one of my favorite songs on the album which is the title track man in the moon

Man I really enjoyed watching you experience on of my all time favorite albums. I really appreciate your appreciation of a genre that you aren't familiar with. You engaged with the music with a supremely open mind. Im very glad you liked this album and I can't wait to watch more vids gentleman.

Watching you and your dad vibe to music is extremely heartwarming. I lost my dad to cancer 5 years ago. Of all the things on the list I miss about him, being able to experience music with him is really high up. Listening to his favourite music like Rolling Stones, The Police, the eagles, I really developed a love for music and the feelings you get when you share those listening experiences. You two clearly have a special bond and the openness about music and the emotions you both have with each other is something you should cherish. I feel lucky to have found your channel.

This is my first time seeing this channel, it has been in my recommended a couple times. I just assumed it was like the other "mom/dad react to hip-hop" where they just listen to meaningless music that you would throw on at a party. I know nothing about the father(not even his name) but I can tell he has a ton of knowledge in music theory. I love how open and appreciative he is to new music outside of his taste. It warms my heart honestly, my father passed away 3 years ago when I was 17, and seeing a bond and just a simple conversation you two remind me of great memories I have with my father. He grew up in the psychedelic rock age. I feel like he would've enjoyed the feeling of MOTM. This is a great channel and dynamic between you two! Now excuse me I'm going to watch the rest of these reactions.

This is the first video I've seen from this channel. Might I say 10/10. You can see the love this father has for his son. It awesome to see you guys bonding over something you both are so passionate about.

Seeing all these stories from other fans brings a tear to my eye, man. I wonder if Scott realizes how many people his music has touched and how many lives it's saved. It's a shame we likely won't get any more music from him. You could probably fill a library with the stories people have of how his music was there for them when nobody else was. I feel incredibly lucky to be living in a time where we get to have his art in our lives.
