CRITIC’S PICK: Kid Cudi
Recommended by Joshua Robinson as part of Creative Loafing’s May 2026 Critic’s Picks
Wed. May 6
Kid Cudi
Lakewood Ampitheatre
Scott Mescudi has been one of hip-hop’s most consistent creative forces since his debut album, “Man on the Moon,” in 2009. Seventeen years later, he is showing no signs of stopping. Less than a year removed from his 11th studio album, “Free,” Cudi is already teasing a new, as-of-yet-untitled record. While the prospect of more new music is surely exciting for fans, the Cleveland, Ohio, native is stoking hype for the project anymore by embarking on a 33-date North American tour with opening support from me n ü, Dot Da Genius, A-Trak, OutKast legend Big Boi, and British singer-activist M.I.A. With a lineup this stacked, ticket prices as low as $32, and an open-air venue as iconic as Lakewood Amphitheatre, Cudder’s forthcoming show “Rebel Ragers” show is a no brainer. — Joshua Robinson
