"KIDS SEE GHOSTS 2" is the unreleased sequel album to KIDS SEE GHOSTS by the duo of the same name that consisted of Kanye West and Kid Cudi. Like the other sequel collab album, Watch The Throne II, very little is known about this album and is one of Kanye West's most mysterious records.
Background[]
"KIDS SEE GHOSTS 2" was a concept created some time in 2019. The album was teased by Kid Cudi himself throughout multiple interviews that same year, Mescudi stating that he and Kanye had been working on a follow-up collaborative album following the release of KIDS SEE GHOSTS.[1]
Unfortunately, that album had never came to fruition. In 2022, the duo's friendship would come to an end during a spat due to Kid Cudi's friendship with Pete Davidson whom Ye had been arguing with due to marrying his now ex-wife Kim Kardashian.[2] Kanye would state Kid Cudi would not feature on his next album Donda 2, in which Cudi would reply saying he didn't need Ye anyways, calling him a "dinosaur".[3] The two would not work together for another two years, their final collaboration being on Pusha T's song "Rock N Roll".
Although the two would make ammends late-2024, Cudi even featuring on Kanye West and Ty Dolla $ign's song "GUN TO MY HEAD", "KIDS SEE GHOSTS 2" has indefinitely been scrapped.[4][5]
Songs[]
Very little is known about the songs made for this album. Only two songs were made during these sessions, being the song "Thank You (Vol. 2)" which was later given to Ty Dolla $ign for his album, with Cudi being replaced with Anderson .Paak and Thundercat.[6][7] Another track that was intended was Robinhood. Orchestral remixes to various songs from the KIDS SEE GHOSTS (2018), notably "Cudi Montage" were also created, although its very unlikely those were intended for this album.[8]
Though Cudi has confirmed himself that more songs have been created for the album past 2018, it's unclear if any songs had been fully finished for the album, excluding "Track 6" as the song had been given away to Ty Dolla $ign.[9]
