    Muy buena producción, buena composición, aunque una letra muy repetida, no quita que esté álbum sea un clásico

    One of the best albums of all time and definitely the best debut album in any genre. There isn't a bad track and after many listen to this album I am still not sick of it.

  1. This first official release is a soul searcher and may require more patience than your everyday debut. Still, the chilly, complicated Man on the Moon perfects the futuristic bleak-beat hip-hop Kanye purposed a year earlier, and rewards the listener with every tripped-out return.
  2. It’s spacey, adventurous, and ridiculously intriguing if only because it’s so different.
  3. Cudi turns out to be that rarest of rap phenomena: a hyped upstart who really does represent a promising new phase in the genre's evolution.
