"While the album could have been split into two thematically concise releases (or a single focused edit), Passion, Pain & Demon Slayin' breathes gravitas into the Kid Cudi discography, realigning his trajectory and hinting at hope, possibility, and, most importantly, recovery".

"His frailties have added to his personal standing if not chart success, and after a stint in rehab this autumn, Mescudi's sixth album has a roll call of collaborators that feels like a group hug".

"Grandiosity is part of Kid Cudi's charm: His world is melodramatic and vast while remaining entrenched in his most personal memories. While his issues are his own (and typically petty), he conveys them as important, as if they fit into a larger universal scheme where things have meaning and happen for a reason ... The 87-minute runtime is both ridiculous and somehow necessary; if the redundancies were cut, some of the self-importance would be lost. The extended monotony allows you to get lost in Cudi's ego and your own head, clearing room amid the nothingness to discover and create meaning".
