Kid Cudi may be famous for lonely stoner anthems like “Day ‘N’ Nite,” “All Along” and “The Prayer,” but it appears he’s leaving those kinds of records in his rearview mirror.
While answering fans’ questions about his upcoming album INSANO (NITRO MEGA) on X (formerly Twitter) on Wednesday (February 21), the Cleveland rapper declared he is no longer making “sad songs.”

In response to a follower who asked if “there any sad songs” on his new project, Cudi responded: “No. I dont do sad songs anymore. Sorry.”
“Tortured was the last sad song i wrote 2 years ago,” he added, referencing his recent INSANO ballad. “We on some new shit now. We in the light. If ur not ready, I have about 9 older albums w that vibe u can still listen to.”
Cudi’s announcement was met with mixed reactions, with one fan replying: “To remove sadness from your work entirely is like painting in black and white without any black paint. Can’t have happy without some sad.”
Another said: “Everyone respects the growth but the ‘sad’ songs arent to keep us down when we’re listening. Its some of the most inspirationally accurate music I enjoy listening to.”

Others were more supportive, with one fan writing: “Happy for you man. You saved my life with a lot of your music back in the day, but I’m glad to know you’re in a better place now. Most people call your old songs sad, but they were always more motivational and comforting to me than sad.”
