Kid Cudi is wading into comedy and launching an art exhibition in Paris

Rapper Kid Cudi, born Scott Roman Mescudi, has announced his debut art exhibition in Paris at the Ruttkowski;68 gallery, titled "Echoes of the Past," running from January 31 through March 1. The show features 10 original works centered on a visual alter ego named Max, exploring themes of darkness, fear, and mental health through a childlike, cartoonish style. Cudi, who completed his first painting last year, has also created an original score for the exhibition and adopted the new moniker "Scotty Roman" for this venture. Separately, he revealed he recently performed stand-up comedy for the first time at West Side Comedy Theater in Santa Monica, describing the experience as electrifying.
