Kid Cudi has shared a new song titled “Leader Of The Delinquents.” It’s his first release since his 2018 joint album with Kanye West titled Kids See Ghosts.
Long time collaborator Dot Da Genius links with Arkateqq to supply the beat. Cudi starts with a quarantine update before reflecting on self-destructive attempts to cope with life’s low points. “Fame and loneliness, the recipe for disaster/I can’t handle this shit, Imma get plastered,” he raps over industrial drums that drive the point home.
Cudi first previewed the song on Friday (April 10) via Instagram Live.

Cudi’s seventh studio album ENTERGALACTIC is expected to drop later this year. It’s his first album since the lengthy Passion Pain and Demon Slayin’ in 2016. Last July, the multi-talented artist announced a Netflix Animated Series would arrive with the upcoming album.
