Sober for the first time in a long time, Kid Cudi does not see himself returning to drugs anytime soon. Last year, Kid Cudi spoke on how rap music bored him. The Cleveland rapper said he gets more thrills from rock music. As a result, Kid Cudi decided to create a rock album.

When he first spoke on the album, Kid Cudi announced it would be recorded with Dot Da Genius. The initial title of the album was The Wizards. Growing up, Kid Cudi said he always wanted to learn the guitar. Now, as a famous rapper, he is learning to play the instrument, as he branches out into rock.

Outside of playing instruments, Kid Cudi spoke about his career in hip hop. Kid Cudi said he is picky about who he does tracks with. At the same time, Kid Cudi said he is ready and willing to do a track with Kanye West or Jay-Z at any time. Kid Cudi admitted he does not charge to be on people's records and he is not trying to be used by rising rappers because of this fact.
