The Netflix feature film also boasts Shawn “Jay-Z” Carter and LeBron James as executive producers of the film.
Writing a message to his fans via social media, Cudi said, “I added a lot of my own personal struggles and experiences in it, so this film is very close to my heart,” he wrote. “I know that, deep down, this movie will help people the same ways music has… It’s trippy, it’s fun, it’s sad, it’s life.”
