After releasing latest single, rapper also revealed he recently married his longtime girlfriend Lola Abecassis Sartore
Kid Cudi had lots of good news to share Friday as he announced both that a new album is on the way and he recently married his longtime girlfriend.
The rapper also shared the video for his new song “Grave,” the second single off the just-announced Free, out August 22.
For the “Grave” visual, Cudi teamed with director Samuel Bayer, the music video legend who previously helmed Nirvana’s “Smells Like Teen Spirit,” Blind Melon’s “No Rain,” the Cranberries’ “Zombie” and other classic videos.
“Grave” follows Free’s first single “Neverland,” which arrived in May and was later accompanied by a short film directed by Ti West that premiered at the Tribeca Film Festival. Free is available to preorder now ahead of its August arrival.
“’Neverland’ marks the beginning of an exciting new era for me,” Kid Cudi previously said in a statement. “I’m really proud of this new sound, and I can’t wait for fans—old and new—to experience what’s coming. With the album and the short film premiering at Tribeca, this is just the start of something much bigger.”
