“I wanted something that really expressed freedom, so the concept of me leaping into the clouds made so much sense,” he wrote in the post’s caption. “Inspired by The Truman Show. I can’t WAIT for u guys to hear this album and really see the album art brought to life. You’re in for a beautiful ride. Promise.”

Additionally, the album’s second single, “Grave,” along with its accompanying music video, is set to land this Friday, July 11. “Grave” follows up the lead single “Neverland,” which Cudi unveiled back in May ahead of his Tribeca Film Festival debut.
