Kid Cudi’s latest release, DON’T WORRY featuring longtime collaborator Chip Tha Ripper, is a tribute to New York and a return to the sonic roots he established during his early career. The track is driven by Cudi’s unique flow and unpredictable cadence, leading into a mesmerizing hook. Chip Tha Ripper’s verse brings an extra level of intensity, making this collaboration a powerful homage to the city that shaped Cudi’s sound.
The official music video captures the dynamic duo taking over New York City, offering fans a visual representation of the city’s influence on the song. The release is perfectly timed, as it coincides with the drop of issue #4 of Cudi’s popular comic book series Moon Man. Fans can also look forward to the release of Kid Cudi Presents The Soundtrack of Moon Man, further expanding the Moon Man universe into the world of music.
Adding to the celebration, Kid Cudi recently earned a prestigious RIAA Diamond certification for his iconic single “Day ‘N’ Nite (nightmare),” making Man on the Moon: The End of Day the first 2000s hip-hop album to hold multiple Diamond singles. Alongside “Pursuit of Happiness (nightmare),” Cudi continues to solidify his legacy in the music industry.
Earlier this year, Cudi also dropped INSANO, his ninth studio album. The 18-track project features collaborations with Wiz Khalifa, Lil Yachty, Bone Thugs & Harmony, and Chip Tha Ripper, further showcasing Cudi’s ability to assemble like-minded artists. INSANO has garnered millions of streams and widespread critical praise. Glide Magazine describes it as “a cosmic journey through Cudi’s creativity,” while CLASH calls the album “riveting.”
With his music, comics, and culture-defining moves, Kid Cudi continues to expand his artistic universe, captivating fans across multiple mediums.

Loaded, buyin’ all types of goods (I’m good)
You ain’t gotta worry ’bout me

I can’t complain, I hopped out, twinkly chain, and life is good
If you get close enough, find out, now I’m even smellin’ perfect
Don’t worry ’bout how we makin’ it happen, you can tell it’s workin’
You ain’t gotta worry ’bout none of these cars parked in my front yard
Don’t worry ’bout us, we golden, we holdin’, never no foldin’, smokin’ [Chorus: Kid Cudi]Don’t worry-worry ’bout me, baby
I know my life gets crazy
Don’t worry-worry ’bout me, baby
No way this life can break me
