Kid Cudi has long been a multi-talented vendor of art of across many mediums.
And his latest venture fuses several.
Christened ‘Entergalactic,’ the television event premieres on Netflix on September 30 and encompasses a compelling story and new music.
Created by Cudi and Kenya Barris, the Fletcher Moules-directed special is an original, immersive, animated story centered on a young artist named Jabari — voiced by Cudi— as he navigates both love and success.
The two paths uniquely lead to each other, when Jabari moves into a new building and encounters his new neighbor, photographer Meadow — (voiced by Jessica Williams). From there a narrative of music, fashion, art, and more plays out – with New York serving as the creative backdrop.
‘Entergalactic’ boasts an all-star cast that also includes Ty Dolla $ign, Timothée Chalamet, Laura Harrier, Vanessa Hudgens, Christopher Abbott, 070 Shake, Jaden Smith, Keith David, Teyana Taylor, Arturo Castro, and Macaulay Culkin.
Uniquely, it’s powered by music that can be found on Cudi’s like-titled new album – which also arrives on September 30.
