Andrew Martin of PopMatters said, "A few missteps aside, this record remains a refreshing and creative take on an experiment that could have easily failed." [3] Thomas Quinlan of Exclaim! said, "What really holds this album together is the live band feel that's also applied to the doo-wop and R&B choruses." [2] Mosi Reeves of Spin called it "one of the year's most unexpected hip-hop pleasures, with the Los Angeles MC switching gears from his inventive and hugely influential rapid-fire rhyme style." [4]
