Kid Cudi Announces New Album Release Date, Shares New Track With Travis Scott: Listen
Kid Cudi’s new album–the follow-up to 2015’s Speedin’ Bullet 2 Heaven–has a new release date. Passion, Pain & Demon Slayin’ is out December 16 via Republic, according to an iTunes listing. (Cudi confirmed the digital release date, as well as the physical release on December 23.) Cudi has also shared the album’s “Baptized in Fire,” which features Travis Scott (with whom Cudi collaborated extensively on Birds in the Trap Sing McKnight). Listen to it here, and see the updated tracklist and artwork below. Pitchfork has reached out to Kid Cudi’s representatives for more information.
Cudi had planned to release his record in September, but it got delayed “due to some minor sample clearances being finalized.” Shortly after the delay, Cudi checked himself into rehab for depression, and later found himself embroiled in beefs with Drake and Lupe Fiasco.
Passion, Pain & Demon Slayin’ features André 3000 (credited as Andre Benjamin), Pharrell, and Willow Smith. It includes the previously shared “All In” (produced by Mike WiLL Made-It), “Frequency” (produced by Plain Pat and Mike Dean), and “Surfin’” with Pharrell. Below, watch the video for “Frequency.”
