Kid Cudi had a soul-crushing announcement for his die-hard fans on Monday morning (May 17). According to a pair of tweets, the G.O.O.D. Music artist has decided not to proceed with a deluxe version of Man On The Moon III: The Chosen. Instead, he’s chosen to concentrate on his forthcoming project Entergalactic while focusing on an accompanying animated Netflix series with black-ish director Kenya Barris.
“Im sorry yall but im not doin a deluxe of motm3,” he tweeted. “Ive decided to start workin on new material and the shit is madness!! Cant wait for yall to hear!! Arghhhh!!! The snippet I released is for something special im doin. Ull see very soon.”
Kid Cudi also reiterated both the Netflix show and Entergalactic would arrive sometime next year in a follow-up tweet that read, “Entergalactic album and show droppin 2022 end of summer!! Recorded the first season and couldn’t be more hyped for yall to see. Ur gonna be blown away. Next level shit only. Changing the game as always.”
He added, “Got some other magical shit in the chamber comin soon!! A lots happening. Stay fuckin tuned baby.”
