Bloom received generally positive reviews from music critics. On Metacritic, which assigns a normalized rating out of 100 from reviews from mainstream critics, gave the album an average score of 72 out of 100 based on 4 reviews.[16] In a positive review, Preezy of XXL praised the growth seen between General Admission and Bloom. He praised both the lyrical content and production on the album. However, he was critical in the fact that the album was not strong enough to be his big comeback after the critical failure of General Admission.[20] In a positive review, Aaron McKrell of HipHopDX gave the album a 4/5, and praised Kelly's vocal delivery on the album, along with the production and lyrical content.[19] Dan Leroy of Alternative Press gave the album 3.5 out of 5 stars. He stated that Kelly's vocals were amazing and his lyrics seemed sincere, but that it felt like listening to more of a persona than to an attempt to address a sometimes messy life.[18] In a mixed review, Neil Z Yeung of AllMusic gave the album 3 stars, stating the half of the songs on the album were made to be radio hits, and that it was toned down from Kelly's previous two albums. However, he said the introspective maturity of the album was admirable.[17]
