Kid Cudi recently hopped on Instagram, announcing a new collaboration he has on the way with Star Trek. The “Boldly Be” collab is set to include a song, apparel, and a gaming component. It drops in October of this year, and “reflects the optimistic and inclusive spirit of adventure, discovery, imagination, and most importantly, hope, at the heart of the cultural phenomenon.”
“I grew up watching Star Trek with my dad who is single-handedly responsible for turning me into a fan,” Kid Cudi says of the upcoming collab. “The most important thing to me is to be as authentic as possible. Star Trek’s mission has always been about having a hopeful future and when I was first approached about this project it was the perfect marriage of all the things I believe in – being brave and a hero by doing what’s right and fighting for freedom. I can’t wait to share my love of this incredible franchise with the world.”
