My mind is racing w ideas," he tweeted. "The creative madness overflowing from my brain. I love this feelin," he shared with his 2.7 million followers.

It's no surprise Cudi is working on two more scripts following the success of Entergalactic. The adult animated film has received endless praise following its release in September on Netflix. Created by Kenya Barris and Cudi himself, the series follows Cudi voicing a young artist, Jabari, and his neighbor, Meadow, voiced by Jessica Williams, who hit it off romantically but find things get a lil rocky when Jabari's ex shows up. Fans have not only heavily related to the film but fell in love with the artistic visuals and moving soundtrack. 

For a musical genius like Cudi, "Entergalactic is everything I've always wanted to do, create a long-form visual companion to an album," he said. "It all started with the music, which helped bring this storyline and these characters to life." However, for all the Kid Cudi fans out there, the artist shared some pretty sad news regarding his fate as a rapper. The musician tweeted, "Im doin 1 more album, and then im done w my deal, and not sure what ima do after that." And something tells us he'll be going out with a bang. Stay tuned.
