Kid Cudi Teases a New Album & First Single ‘Neverland’ in Cryptic Post

Kid Cudi is teasing his return with a new song called “Neverland.”

On Thursday (May 1), Cudi shared a cryptic teaser on social media that merely shows some amusement park rides before posting the link to the rapper’s website.

“Pre save NEVERLAND, my first single from my new album, NOW!” Cudi wrote on X. The website has a countdown clock that expires next Friday.

The new single comes after Cudder’s last record, 2024’s Insano, was intended as his swan song. Cudi had talked about retiring back in 2022, writing on X he had one more project in him before delving into other creative avenues.

“Im doin 1 more album and then im done w my deal and not sure what ima do after that but yea, 1 more,” he wrote at the time. “Wont be next year. Keep u posted.” In a follow up tweet, Cudi added, “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.”

During the rapper’s appearance on Hot Ones in October of that year, he also shared that he felt his career as a rap artist was “nearing the end.”

“I just don’t know if I wanna do music, drop albums for too much longer, you know?” he said. “I’m kind of nearing the end on all things Kid Cudi, I think.”

It seems Mr. Rager has reconsidered. Check out the teaser below.
