Kid Cudi is officially preparing to expand his massive musical catalog. Following his recent multi-disciplinary run across film and television, the chart-topping artist has announced plans on his X account to release a brand new EP this coming Friday, March 20, which will serve as a direct prelude to his highly anticipated next full-length studio album.
Ready to return to his sonic roots while pushing his sound forward, Cudi’s upcoming EP is designed to set the narrative and thematic foundation for the larger album to come. Ahead of the official rollout, the multi-hyphenate has already given fans a taste of his next era through his livestreams. This week, Cudi surprised listeners by dropping three brand-new singles — “Ride Ride,” “Drown,” and “HALO’S ON ANGELS” — directly to his SoundCloud. The surprise delivery serves as an official release for the highly anticipated tracks, which the Cleveland native had previously been teasing to fans during his recent live streams.
While specific details regarding featured guests, production credits, and the upcoming projects’ official titles remain tightly under wraps, the new music carries the introspective and genre-bending aesthetic that has defined his career for over a decade. The dual EP and album rollout strategy mirrors some of his past successful releases, building substantial momentum ahead of the main event.
Kid Cudi’s new singles are available to stream now via SoundCloud.
