I'm donating this video's RUclips ad revenue to charities that benefit black people. Not sure which one I should do yet, please send suggestions on Twitter or Insta. Big video on current events coming next week. I've been protesting. I've been in the street helping my community. Finally sitting down to use my platform for good, but I'm a member of my local community first. And by the way - if you're in Philly, reach out to me on social media and let's make something good happen together.
i thought about kid cudi the other day and i have never been a fan and i was thinking to myself..who is this kid cudi charachter? that i hear people like so much. two days later...this pops up on my feed...hmmmm
Johnathan Jacobs same. I’ve known who he is for quite some time and never really listened to his music. Now I’m gonna go back and listen to man on the moon and his other albums since when it came out I was legit 3 years old
@@h0ld0n_73 not gone lie Man on the moon was the first album I'd ever heard that sucked me in emotionally, and I was 25 when it released. Now finding out he lost his dad to cancer at 11 and I lost mine the same way at 13, makes me feel like he wrote it for me lol. Don't know your mood, but if you're going through some shit, that album is pure therapy. A certified #Classic
Cudi and Ye’ really helped me get through high school. I’ve suffered with anxiety and bipolar depression since I was 11. I remember when I first heard Cudi’s Man On The Moon track and being brought to tears and when KSG dropped I listened to the whole album on repeat for a week. They’re truly my idols
@UCpEx_MOnByF064Lp_N9sxOw yes there is bro if you have bipolar disorder you go through long lasting moods that make you feel either happy,confident,hyper and sometimes godlike or like a piece of shit
Dora's Daddy big facts the version on TurboGrafx16 is incredible, it’s a song featuring Kanye, Kid Cudi, Daft Punk, and Michael fucking Jackson. I mean come on.
@@zhalosupercell9518 cudi sampled daft punk's beat. Just search "the son of flynn" its part of a soundtrack that daft made for the movie "TRON: legacy" in 2010 the soundtrack is amazing btw. One of daft's best work imo. And the movie is rlly good too
One of my favorite artists EVER.. Kid Cudi's influence is heavily present throughout this past decade. I'm so happy to state I've been a avid fan since 2009, his music has helped me very much, and I'm happy to see him received such praise a decade later.
Cudi, kanye, kendrick in that order have helped me through hard times, also helping with perspective, and a mix of both, plus great music and lyricism. Keep keepin on cuz whether we know or not we need artist like this. Especially now.
@@joshuaakinbami1941 I say my guy cuz I'm white but I get the other from my best friend all the time doesn't bother me in the slightest and in the proper situations I can give him the same reply
@@joshuaakinbami1941 anytime my guy, my friend I mentions raps too, he's damn good, so shameless plug if you look up "Trey M's" he's only got a few songs up on youtube but has an album... were in the PNW in the US. Always making connections if I can to help him out.
Just some constructive criticism: I think it's kinda distracting that you have to look at your script all the time when you have the camera on you. I think if you're gonna cut to the video of you, you should always be looking at the camera. It'll just look better. Because it's very weird to be just looking at you looking to the side. Its not all the time but I noticed it a few times on this video and it can be distracting.
That ending made me tear up just listening to you describe the impact that Scott has left on me. Without Cudi I don't think I would have been able to fight my mental breakdown with Bipolar mania and Schizophrenia. That 2-3 week period of my life was shrouded in a deeper darkness that was unimaginable but in the midst of that darkness I often found myself singing and humming to cudi in my head. He was a guiding voice a glimpse of light in the darkness. His words and sound came to me when I needed it most and from that I was able to come out of this and feel reborn. Cudi is an artist that is so respectable meanwhile completely different. The way he lifts the soul is why I listen to him day in and day out.
Super stoked that you're adding your self throughout the video. Appreciate you stepping out of the comfort zone! I enjoyed the addition, you can tell the amount of work you put in! Thank you for these vids!
I remember hearing day and night for the first time back in 2009 probably in my first year in collage... it was so amazing I had goosebumps..tripped on it for months..
I was actually about to write about it too why he didn't mention it since that album is really good. Either way, I loved the video and editing. Volksgeist is my favorite channel where I learn a lot about my favorite artists.
Speeding bullet to heaven was soooooo good.... I’d be lying if I said every track on there is “good” but it’s a modern take on grunge and alternative rock similar to deftones... amazing
Cudder has gotten me through a lot, continues to get me through a lot, and will probably get me through a lot in the future. I cherish his sounds and vulnerability. I hope others have gotten help through his music as well.
Arguably the most important music artist of this century so far, his insight into the darker side of the psyche and dealing with these issues has helped thousands cope with their own problems by making them feel as though they are not alone and that there is a light at the end of the tunnel.
Quick note: Leadbelly didn't make where did you sleep last night its a traditional song from the 1870s but was first commercially recorded by Dock Walsh in 1926 and was called In the Pines
I just wanted to talk about the face cam at around 3:00. I think if you were to have an animation instead of with the deposit of information it would make it a lot more interesting because it broke my immersion. I also understand that memorizing a script or just staring blankly at the middle of a screen might feel awkward but I couldn’t help but notice you constantly looking at the script and then back maybe have the script behind the camera. Still I really love the video and hope to see more in the future!
I can't imagine life without music, and Cudi will always be my favourite.. i started listening to him when i was 16 smoking to King Wizard, Mojo so dope, man on the moon and basicly every song he released. Speedin Bullet 2 heaven is the deepest song i ever heard. I just hope he comes to germany one day
Volk, it's good to see you appearing and talking to the video, it's a nice addition! Just making a suggestion/tip for this matter: Try to put your script at the same level of the camera, when you change your look to read feels a little bit off. Excelent video, as always!
bro i mean no disrespect by this but i feel like i can vibe more w the material you’re saying without a facecam. absolutely love your vids tho u one of the realest on the whole platform
havent watched one of ur videos in a while but the face to camera approach and the set is very nice, minimal but with a good amount of character. the only thing that takes away from the video is you breaking eye contact a teleprompter would increase the production value so much. The production value is already exceptionally high looking like it was made by a full blow staff with the good editing and wonderful writing. What you already have with a teleprompter would make it seem like you're apart of a smaller music news type company
I'm sure people have commented this, but "Where Did you Sleep Last Night" isn't a Nirvana song. It's a Lead Belly song that Nirvana covered on the MTV album. Great video, BTW!

Right literally one of my favorites of his
I‘ve dreamed of this video.
They can’t comprehend, or even come close to understanding him
Guess if I was boring they would love me more
SuperKaboby guess if I was simple in the mind, everything would be fine.
Maybe if I was a jerk to girls... Instead of being nice and speaking kind words
“I hope they understand, that I really understand that, they don’t understand”
Then maybe it would be OK to say then

Love him or hate him Kid Cudi truly sacrificed being loved or popular in pursuit of creating what he loves and making new waves.

Ngl at this point of 2020 I wouldn't be surprised if volksgeist became an asmr youtuber
Why didn't you mention 'Satellite Flight: The Journey To The Mood"? That was another experimental studio album by him released in 2014 before SB2H

@@stevensanchez2032 It was a whole different shade of Travis lol, it was more than a sequel to RODEO looking back at it.

I don’t really understand how passion pain and demon slayin is an alt rock album
Lol i always took it as his statement like fine u don't want me to do analog rock sounds how about all 808s and string sections
PP&DS #Indie Rock-Hop right🤔
It's really Trip-Hop tbh
this is genuinely one of my favorite youtube channels- keep it up man
Man I love you Phillip. You should do “Understanding Isaiah Rashad”
Cudder has gotten me through a lot, continues to get me through a lot, and will probably get me through a lot in the future. I cherish his sounds and vulnerability. I hope others have gotten help through his music as well.
I literally fucking requested this on the last “understanding” video. I love you Volksgeist!
Big dude, love your vids and mousey face
ayy its u
I love kid cudi man he inspired a generation with his Art And Creativity God Bless Him.🙏🏾✨💕✌🏿🌍
We NEED an Astroworld video just like the ''Rodeo is a classic'' please. thanks and you're the most underrated channel. been subscribed since 50k
*Kid Cudi saved several lives, including mine!* ❤️
That’s Factz❤️
Happy you’re here:)
Facts👉💯
Whenever I need to remember who I am and remember to stay strong I listen to By Design and Rose Golden.
Explaining kid cudi lore is my HOBBY at this point

Quick note: Nirvana didn't make "Where Did You Sleep Last Night?" Leadbelly did. The cover was a Leadbelly song but stylized in Nirvana's cover

Kid Cudi's chorus on Gorgeous Ft Kanye West is his best Chorus

One of my favorite youtube series
Whenever my phone shuffles to a cudi song randomly I still get happy
I'm sure people have commented this, but "Where Did you Sleep Last Night" isn't a Nirvana song. It's a Lead Belly song that Nirvana covered on the MTV album. Great video, BTW!
10/10 discography. Great vid
what about passion pain and demon slayin
He mentions it but I think its his most underrated album
100% underrated
Passion pain and demon slayin doesn’t get the credit it deserves that album is beautiful
BAPTIZED IN FIRE!!!!
Fav artist of all time
one of my absolute favorite artists!
Where did you sleep last night was actually an old blues song composed and performed by lead belly but covered by Nirvana for their MTV unplugged.
Appreciate the video bro! But you missed
Satellite flight :(
Fantastic video man, very well put together and organized. Cudder is awesome
