Kids See Ghosts track listing

"Cudi Montage" is a song by American hip hop duo Kids See Ghosts, composed of Kanye West and Kid Cudi, released as the final track on their eponymous debut studio album (2018). The song was produced by Kid Cudi and Dot da Genius, with co-production from Mike Dean. The song also features vocals from Mr Hudson. Dot da Genius recorded with Kids See Ghosts in 2018, and he recalled West as unifying him and Kid Cudi's musical interests. An electro-gospel track with rock influences, the song samples Kurt Cobain's unreleased track "Burn the Rain". In the lyrics of the song, Kids See Ghosts pledge to not repeat past mistakes.

The song received universal acclaim from music critics, who mostly complimented West's vocal performance. They were often appreciative of his lyricism, while some critics praised the sample of "Burn the Rain" and a few named "Cudi Montage" one of the highlights of Kids See Ghosts. The song reached number 69 on the US Billboard Hot 100 and also appeared on the charts in Australia, Canada, and Ireland. It has been certified gold in the United States by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA). Kids See Ghosts performed it live at the Camp Flog Gnaw Carnival in 2018, with West forgetting certain lyrics while performing.
