Last night, Cudi performed at ComplexCon in Long Beach, Calif., where he was joined on stage by Pusha-T and actor Timothée Chalamet.
He is now gearing up to release his new album Entergalactic, inspired by his upcoming adult animated music series for Netflix. He is teaming up with “Black-ish” creator Kenya Barris on the show, which is set to debut in 2020.
“I’m trying my hardest to still introduce new sounds and push the envelope, sonically,” he told Complex. “So it’s still gonna be like everything that people love about Kid Cudi music. The only difference is that it’s gonna be told from a different perspective.”
