Kid Cudi is expanding his Moon Man universe in an exciting new direction. On July 20, 2024, he announced via a post on X that he’s launching a podcast titled “The Moon Man Chronicles.”
This podcast will feature a comprehensive review of each issue of the Moon Man comic book series and the accompanying songs from its soundtrack. The show will be available on YouTube, and the initial episodes are set to feature the comics’ co-writer, Kyle Higgins. According to Cudi, it will be live streamed with plans to take questions from the audience in real-time.
Kid Cudi, whose real name is Scott Ramon Seguro Mescudi, has been releasing songs to coincide with each issue of the Moon Man comic series, which first launched in January 2024. The most recent track, “Dreams I See,” dropped earlier this month. Produced by Rami Beatz and Matt Spatola, the song delivers classic Cudi vibes with a mix of rapping, singing, and humming over a spacey, drum-heavy backdrop. The lyrics, typical of Cudi’s style, tackle themes of vulnerability, aspirations, and self-motivation.
The Moon Man comic book series tells the story of Ramon Townsend, who becomes a celebrity after a near-disastrous moon mission. Townsend seeks to return to a normal life in Cleveland, but his earlier experiences cast a long shadow. As the series progresses, Townsend starts to test his limits, and things get even more complicated with the return of an old friend.
To add more layers to this universe, Cudi has also launched a limited-edition clothing collection inspired by the artwork from the latest iteration of the series. Each piece features designs based on the comic’s visuals, making it a must-have for any fan.
It’s clear that Kid Cudi is deeply invested in expanding the Moon Man universe, blending music, storytelling, and fashion to create an immersive experience for his audience.
Kid Cudi’s upcoming podcast “The Moon Man Chronicles” promises to offer fans an engaging deeper dive into the world of Moon Man, blending comprehensive reviews, live interactions, and his unique musical stylings.
