On Monday, October 26th, Kid Cudi released a teaser for his long-awaited Man on the Moon III. Cudi posted the teaser video along with the caption “THE TRILOGY CONTINUES…” on Twitter.
A montage of archived footage opens the teaser video, then moves to Cudi driving a car up to a scenic overlook. As he gets out of the car we hear what appears to be a bit of new music by the artist. Cudi then smokes while gazing up at the moon. Additional information regarding the release date and full title of the album was unfortunately not given in the video or by Kid Cudi.

The Man on the Moon series started back in 2009 with Kid Cudi’s debut album Man on the Moon: The End of Day. The following year Man on the Moon II: The Legend of Mr. Rager was released. The next couple of albums released by Kid Cudi were not involved with the Man on the Moon theme, except for his 2014 album Satellite Flight: The Journey to Mother Moon, which Cudi described as a prelude to Man on the Moon III.
Passion, Pain & Demon Slayin’, Cudi’s most recent album, was released in 2016, and in 2018, he worked with Kanye West for Kids See Ghosts. “The Scotts,” with Travis Scott, and “The Adventures of Moon Man and Slim Shady,” with Eminem are the two songs that Kid Cudi has been a part of so far this year.
