I had to look up who that is. Guess I'm getting old. Is he popular? (I feel like Captain Kirk in Star Trek IV asking "Is that a lot?")

iirc he was in like 2008?

He’s kind of a legacy act at this point but his tours still sell like crazy and he’s had some pretty successful projects in the last few years.

Def still popular. He had an album come out in 2018 that was massive with the 20 year old demographic.

According to him, he's openly a big star trek fan and grew up on the show. I'm sure he'll put a lot of effort into it but it is really weird to see.

I think it's just a song? I'm actually not sure what's even going on here but it would be really weird if they made a Kid Cudi show instead of a Kid Cudi song.

"And this is Kid Cudi, who's not really a historical figure."

"Kinda am now, I think."

Who TF is Kid Cudi?

Ohhh he's the Speeding Bullet 2 Heaven Guy! This makes a little more sense now.

I need to listen to Kids See Ghosts, meant to be a classic, but Kanye is very offputting nowadays

How does that relate to Star Trek?
