If his recent poetweets and newfound ability to summon thunderstorms are any indication, Kid Cudi's forthcoming album Speedin' Bullet to Heaven should prove a necessary addition to the Cudi multiverse. In May, Cudi revealed that Heaven would be an entirely featureless project — adding that he hasn't been "this emotional making an album in a long time." On Friday, Cudi took to Twitter to give a proper update on the album — which he affectionately refers to as "musical madness" with some decidedly solo production:

Sbth is 98% finished

 Of course, Cudi has remained busy in the months since Satellite Flight: The Journey to Mother Moon — including appearances in Need for Speed, Entourage, and his new role as bandleader on IFC's Comedy Bang! Bang! following the departure of Reggie Watts.
