About the episode
On this week’s episode, Jinx and Shea go deep into the genre-bending, modern-day classic that is Kid Cudi’s ‘Man on the Moon: The End of Day.’ They look back at the first installment of the trilogy and talk about Cudi’s unique vocal abilities and trippy, drug-infused lyricism with songs like “Day ‘N’ Nite,” “Soundtrack 2 My Life,” and “Sky Might Fall.” Later, Jinx and Shea debate who had the best guest verse: Kanye West, Chip tha Ripper, or pop-rock band MGMT. Find out how dreams, Cleveland, movie trailers, humming, and SunnyD are connected to this sonically obscure hip-hop album before things come to a close and Kerm gets his revenge as the judge during Deena’s Court. Stick around to hear this week’s featured song decided by the winner.
