Critical reception

Timothy Archer of The 405 gave the album a 7 out of 10, saying, "CrownsDown & Company will probably appeal more to the partisan audience than new listeners searching for an entrance point into Themselves' canon, but it represents a fine addition to that collection, and will no doubt give fans and club-goers many moments of happiness, curiosity and dancing."
