Having already collaborated on the track “Too Damn High” from Cudi’s latest album, INSANO, the duo is eager to explore more collaborative ventures, fueled by what Cudi described as “crazy chemistry.”

During the interview, Kid Cudi expressed admiration for Lil Yachty’s unique talents, referring to the rapper’s “special powers” that left a lasting impression. According to Cudi, their collaborative session resulted in the creation of multiple songs, with plans to incorporate more of Lil Yachty’s work in the deluxe edition of INSANO.

This revelation follows a recent social media post by renowned producer The Alchemist, who shared a photo of himself and Kid Cudi in the studio, accompanied by a rocket emoji. The image, posted on Friday (January 19), hints at an upcoming collaboration between the two artists, further solidifying Kid Cudi’s commitment to his craft despite his brief retirement contemplation in 2022.

Reflecting on his decision to temporarily step away from the music scene, Kid Cudi acknowledged feeling “out of it” and uncertain about the reception of his work.
