Released on January 12, INSANO serves as the follow-up to 2022’s Entergalactic, with features coming from Lil Wayne, Travis Scott, Young Thug, A$AP Rocky, Pharrell and more.
In October, Cudi said on social media that INSANO would clock in at over 40 songs between its standard and deluxe versions and “have a wonderful cast of features that I’m sure [you] all will love.”

A collaboration with Pusha T, which Cudi previously said would be on the album, landed on the expanded edition, INSANO (NITRO MEGA).
There’s no shortage of star power behind the boards, either, with the likes of Pharrell, Honorable C.N.O.T.E., WondaGurl, BNYX, Clams Casino and longtime collaborator Dot Da Genius handling production duties.
“This talented group of individuals helped me execute something next level,” he said ahead of its release. “I am so thankful to have worked w some really awesome folks, and next week u will all hear the magic we all created.”
In an interview with Apple Music’s Zane Lowe to promote the project, he revealed that watching Kendrick Lamar perform in Paris on The Big Steppers Tour made him realize what type of sonic direction he wanted to take.
“I was really at a place where I had a goal,” he said. “I was like, ‘Okay, I’ve done all these different types of albums, I’ve touched on all the different types of spaces creatively, sonically. What is the one thing that I haven’t accomplished?’
“And I was still in this place tryna figure out what that album would sound like. I was in Paris, I just finished my European run of tour and I go to see Kendrick. And this muthafucka, it blew my fucking mind.”

He continued: “I’m sitting there, I’m watching the crowd reaction from the beginning of the show ’til the end. People were in it, party mode, singing every fucking word. I’m not saying this doesn’t happen at my shows, ’cause it does. But all the way through, I don’t have that experience.
“I had this moment where I was like, ‘You know what? This is the reaction I want.’ I want people to feel good and it to be a joyous occasion when I’m performing.”
