This cut is from Kid Cudi's deluxe album from earlier this year, "INSANO (NITRO MEGA)," and follows up a recent new single.

Kid Cudi isn't done with his INSANO era, as he just dropped the music video for his wavy and bass-heavy NITRO MEGA deluxe cut, "SUPERBOY." Moreover, it sees him happily around Japan, taking in city scenery, walking around empty spaces, enjoying a concert and some good food, and connecting with many creative collaborators. It's a very pleasant and enjoyable experience, and an infectiously fun one thanks to the soaring melodies and the persistent buzzing bass. Hopefully it's not the last visual treatment we get out of this era, as most of the additional material from the Cudder universe tends to be just as creative and exciting as the music.

Speaking of which, Kid Cudi is releasing some new singles in addition to this INSANO run, but they aren't notable because of another album being on the way. Rather, these singles correspond to a new issue of the Moon Man comic book series that he developed and is releasing, with two more issues scheduled for wide distribution at press time later in 2024. The latest of these issues and corresponding songs is "DREAMS I SEE," and it's just as woozy and ethereal as you might expect. As such, there's a lot to be excited about these days when it comes to this artistry.

Sadly, most fans won't get to see this exciting run for themselves for a while, as Kid Cudi had to cancel his INSANO tour due to breaking his foot at Coachella. "Just finished my 2nd surgery," he shared on his Instagram recently to update fans on his recovery process and his mental state. "It was a success. Feelin goood man!! Send me all ur love, I could really use it."

In addition, Kid Cudi also let fans know that most of the rescheduling process for the tour is already done, and that we should get a significant update on new dates very soon. Not only that, but he also teased some more new music that he hopes to drop by summer's end. Whether these new drops are the remaining Moon Man cuts, loosies, or part of a whole 'nother album cycle is still a mystery. But amid a hopefully speedy and successful recovery, fans will enjoy the rewards of their patience.
