    For those of you who want to hear a return to the MOTM wait till you get to acts 3 and 4 and The Void starts. First part of the album is more modernistic with some great features but the second half of the album is where we get that sound we are all used to. Listen to The Pale Moonlight and tell me that you don't get goosebumps! I was waiting for this album for 4 albums!

    One of the greatest returns to hip hop, with a fresh take on Cudi's classic sound mixed with a modern touch of the new generation of rap. Incredible.

    Cudi wrestles with the same struggles that have plagued him since he began sharing the complexities of his internal world, but at its best, Man on the Moon, Vol 3: The Chosen shows that years of struggle have yielded substantial growth.

    His music might still be relatable, but it has never sounded so cliché.

    Throughout the journey of the Man on the Moon trilogy, which is imbued with many twists and turns, The Chosen captures Cudi as victorious, finally reaching his long-awaited destination.
