After ten years, one of the greatest trilogies in hip-hop reaches its long-awaited conclusion. Man on the Moon III: The Chosen is Kid Cudi's seventh studio album, released in December 2020, and the third installment of his landmark Man on the Moon series. Deeply personal and boldly ambitious, the record finds Cudi at his most reflective — exploring his journey through fame, mental health struggles, and relationships with the raw honesty that has made him one of his generation's most influential voices.
Spread across 18 tracks organized into four narrative acts — Return 2 Madness, The Rager, The Menace, Heart of Rose Gold, and Powers — the album builds an immersive sonic world that takes listeners on an emotional odyssey from start to finish. The production weaves together hip-hop, rock, and alternative elements, creating the genre-defying soundscape that Cudi has become known for. Standout collaborations include "Show Out" featuring Pop Smoke and Skepta, "Lovin' Me" featuring Phoebe Bridgers, and "Rockstar Knights" featuring Trippie Redd — a diverse roster that speaks to Cudi's broad artistic reach.
This double LP pressing is the definitive way to experience the album, delivering all 18 tracks across two 12-inch records at 33 RPM with audiophile-quality sound. Available in a striking sea blue limited edition colorway as well as standard black vinyl, it makes for an essential addition to any serious record collection. Whether you're a longtime fan of the Man on the Moon saga or discovering Cudi's universe for the first time, this 2LP is a must-own piece of modern hip-hop history.
