Following that, his 11th studio album, Free, is set to drop on August 22, 2025 via Wicked Awesome and Republic Records.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
3. Solo Only \u2013 No Features<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Cudi made a bold declaration on X: \u201cNo features, just me.\u201d He explained that past collaborators often failed to promote posts, and with Free, he\u2019s going fully solo unless it happens very organically. The album is crafted to be a personal expression of freedom.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
