Cudder took to Twitter on Monday (February 27) to announce that his forthcoming project will drop this fall and he’ll be kickstarting the rollout this summer.

“Album this Fall. First singles this summer. The new chapter has begun,” Cudi wrote. “Ur not prepared man. We’ve reached a new level.”
An eager Cudi fan replied to his tweet and asked whether a tour is on the cards, to which the Man on the Moon rapper confirmed he’ll be embarking on a world tour in 2024.
“World tour next year. Count on it,” Cudi wrote back.
Kid Cudi previously said that his next album — the proper follow-up to 2020’s Man on the Moon III: The Chosen — would likely be his last, given the fact that he has just one more project left on his current deal with Republic Records.
“Im doin 1 more album and then im done w my deal and not sure what ima do after that but yea, 1 more,” the Cleveland native wrote on Twitter last November. “Wont be next year. Keep u posted.

“This is for all my fans that have been ridin w me for so long. This will be all new music. The songs ive teased ill prolly put out as singles here and there to hold u over.”
Cudi hinted at retiring from music during an interview Apple Music’s Zane Lowe last September, suggesting the recently-released Entergalactic would serve as his final project.
“The Kid Cudi stuff, I think I want to put it on the back burner and chill out with that,” he said. “I think, I want to be done with it. I think, closing the chapter on Kid Cudi.
“I’ve said a lot and I have other desires, I have other things I want to do. And I do not see me never making music. I’ll always fuck around in the studio, or make something here and there. But, as far as getting in the studio and working on an album, and then going and touring it, I just don’t have it in me. I don’t have the desire.”

He continued: “I have so many other things I want to invest my time into… I really want to spend more time with my daughter. You know what I’m saying? We’ve been kicking it a lot lately and I’ve been having more time and it’s good. She’s growing up, our relationship is super tight. It’s what I always dreamed of.”
While little is known about Kid Cudi’s next body of work, he previously teased a guest appearance from Young Thug, who remains behind bars awaiting trial in the YSL RICO case.

“I got 2 songs w Thug I did last year,” Cudi tweeted in December. “1 of them goin on the new album the other he’ll use. These songs are fuckin INSANE. Im tellin u. U have no idea.”
