Kid Cudi steps behind and in front of the camera for his latest “Surfin’” music video, which features him playing both the roles of director and star.

As the latest cut from his upcoming album Passion, Pain & Demon Slayin’, Cudder delivers a celebratory, exuberant, and, well, wickedly awesome clip for the feel-good anthem and he does so while joined by strobe lights and famous friends (A$AP Rocky, Jaden and Willow Smith, and more). How else would you direct a video for a special song like this?

Because describing it as one big turn up would be typical, we took things a step further by compiling seven gifs that perfectly convey the vibes of Cudder’s visual candy.

The wickedly awesome shuffle

The new mummy walk

Merry Go Round

Feat. Jaden Smith and A$AP Rocky

It’s lit

The man on the moon glide
