As fans steadily anticipate the release of Kid Cudi's forthcoming project, Entergalactic, they were hit with some new music on Friday morning. He appeared on Nigo's I Want Nigo but he also made a cameo on the soundtrack for Sonic The Hedgehog 2. "Stars In The Sky" leans towards a pop-punk direction with the help of Benji, Dot Da Genius, and Take A Daytrip, who hold down the production. Cudder's infectious hook duties turn "Stars In The Sky" into a potential Hot 100 success and a potential anthem for the festival stages this summer. Interestingly enough, Lil Nas X also has writing credit on the song, so it seems like a collab with the "Old Town Road" artist and Cudder could be coming soon.

Kid Cudi released his last studio album, Man On The Moon III: The Chosen One in 2020, and delivered a few notable features since then, including "Remote Control Pt. 2" off of Kanye West's Donda.

Quotable Lyrics
Say I’m right and sail tonight, I’m home
Say right now, I get it, take my hand come zone
Come on, catch a ride, and we take it to places that we only dreamed
I think I’m home
