On Tuesday, March 16 SNL announced the talent for their April 10 episode and Cudi is slotted as the musical talent. Carey Mulligan, of The Great Gatsby fame, will host. Naturally the reveal was a big highlight for the “Just What I Am” MC.

Technically this is not the first time he has graced the iconic sketch comedy show. Back in 2018 he joined Kanye West during their performance of “Ghost Town”. This is the same appearance where Yeezy pulled up wearing a MAGA hat and went off in a memorable rant. “They bullied me backstage. They said, ‘don’t go out there with that hat on. They bullied me backstage. They bullied me! And then they say I’m in a sunken place,” he said. “You want to see the sunken place? Okay, I’ma listen to ya’ll now — or I’ma put my Superman cape on, cuz this means you can’t tell me what to do. Follow your heart and stop following your mind. That’s how we’re controlled. That’s how we’re programmed. If you want the world to move forward, try love.”
In recent news Cudder confirmed he was working on a pilot with 50 Cent.
