Kid Cudi commemorated the release of his latest album INSANO with installations of massive sculptures in Paris and Los Angeles.

The statues of Cudder stood at approximately 33 feet tall, with red-purple lights blaring out of his eyes and a small spotlight out of his mouth. The sculpture situated in Paris played tracks off INSANO, which released on Friday, January 12, while the one in Los Angeles sailed around the Long Beach shoreline, Redondo Beach, Marina Del Rey, Santa Monica and Malibu; it was also “parked” in Alamitos Bay, Redondo Pier and Malibu Pier while it wasn’t sailing.

Cudi’s INSANO marks his first full-length effort since 2022 and featured collaborations with DJ Drama, Travis Scott, Pharrell, A$AP Rocky, Lil Yachty, the late XXXTentacion and Young Thug, plus production work from the likes of Take A Day Trip, Dot da Genius, WondaGurl, BNYX, Clams Casino, Keyon Christ, Da Honorable C.N.O.T.E. and more. To top it off, KAWS provided the album artwork with his 2019 painting IT TAKES WHAT IT NEEDS.
