Kid Cudi & Jessica Williams Talk Entergalactic, Animation, Music and Art
With director Fletcher Moules’ Entergalactic now streaming on Netflix, I recently spoke with Scott “Kid Cudi” Mescudi & Jessica Williams about making the adult animated music television special that accompanies Cudi’s new studio album of the same name. If you haven’t seen the trailer, Entergalactic is a cool 21st century reboot to the rom com that combines animation, fashion, music and art. It’s also about two young artists navigating the twists and turns of finding love in New York City.
Entergalactic also boasts an all-star cast including Timothée Chalamet, Ty Dolla $ign, Laura Harrier, Vanessa Hudgens, Christopher Abbott, 070 Shake, Jaden Smith, Keith David, Teyana Taylor, Arturo Castro and Macaulay Culkin. Entergalactic was produced by Kenya Barris.
During the interview, Mescudi & Williams talked about making something that brought together music, fashion, and art, what it was like seeing the finished project and how Mescudi was crying happy tears when the screening ended,
