“CUDI THE MEMOIR (artwork by yours truly 😌),” he wrote. “AUG 5TH.”

He continued: “I cannot wait for u guys to read it Its filled w so much about my journey from my first memory to turning 40. Life lessons, the rager period of my life, and fighting my demons.

“AND, this is my debut of my artwork,” he added. “I hope u guys like the vibes. There will be more pictures of my paintings in the book, as well as pictures from childhood all the way to my years in the business and all the things I’ve accomplished.
