“Kitchen” is a song about the difficulty of finding somebody and ‘laying low.’ Cudi reassures the subject by telling her that he’s “one strong lover.” The song is lyrically repetitive, layering the repeated refrain and hook over flourishing strings and drums.

“Kitchen” is the last song of PP&DS’s third act, titled ‘Act III: Niveaux de l'Amour.’ This translates to ‘Act III: Levels of Love.’

It’s produced by Plain Pat and Dot Da Genius, the latter of whom previously collaborated with Cudi as one-half of their indie-rock group, WZRD.

Kid Cudi later thanked Jaden Smith for background vocals on this song:

Kid Cudi performed this song live on The Tonight Show on February 8, 2017.
