Legendary American emcee, record producer and songwriter Kid Cudi, born Scott Ramon Seguro Mescudi, has released crucial details about his forthcoming ninth studio album “Insano”.
Earlier today, Cudi tweeted 4 evocative distinct “Insano” artworks. The artworks, which feature two self-portraits and two abstract digital art reminiscent of Cudi’s Emmy-nominated animated motion picture “Entergalactica”, arrive amidst unprecedented anticipation for a new rap LP by “The Scotts” rapper.
Reportedly, Kid Cudi’s ninth studio album “Insano” is slated to release on September 15th this year.
Notably, Cudi premiered the lead single “Porsche Topless” from his forthcoming LP in June. The iconic rapper, who most recently linked up with Houston’s ruthless rapper and record producer Travis Scott on his fourth LP “Utopia”, is yet to reveal any further details about the record.
Cudi has teased “Insano” numerous times.
While in November last year, Cudi shut his retirement after he himself confirmed it during an interview with eminent rap music journalist Zane Lower and assured “one more album for his fans”, Cudi confirmed the “Insano” LP in March via Instagram Live.
“I need y’all to understand, motherf—– are not prepared for this s—.I’ve never made a project this powerful before in my life,” Cudi said at the time.”Sitting, listening to these mixes, I just know that this s— is going to move you, y’all are going to f— with this s— in such a major way, and I am so f—— excited,” Cudi said at the time.
In fact, Cudi ostensibly confirmed that he “was working on an album” during the pandemic just ahead of his interview with Zane Lowe.
“Since 2020, I have been recording a new album. When I dropped Man on the Moon III, I hit the studio and was just f—– around with some vibes, gettin’ into the groove and I don’t know when I’m gonna release my next album, I really don’t. But I do know what’s gonna happen and before then, I wanna kind of just give you guys some s—“, Cudi.
The “Man on The Moon” emcee then went on to preview his unreleased rap record “Solo Dolo Pt. 4” featuring Playboi Carti.
“Release some songs, get the vibes out there you know. and this is one song I have been sitting on for a while. It features my brother Playboi Carti,” Cudi said just ahead of previewing the unreleased single.
