Critical reception
Giving the album a nine out of ten at Cross Rhythms, David Bains writes, "To those who don't own anything from those masters of dirty south stylings I would advise this as a starting point!" [2] Sherwin Frias, awarding the album four stars from Jesus Freak Hideout, states, "7 is proof positive that while there is plenty to celebrate about". [3] Rating the album five stars for The Phantom Tollbooth, describes, "Prepare yourself to be rapped-up in one of Christian hip-hop’s greatest assets. With Grits’ new album, Seven, hip-hop lovers and even hip-hop toleraters will be more than pleased to hear the extraordinary sounds of the best of the best in Christian hip-hop." [4] Timothy Gerst, indicating in a four star review by The Phantom Tollbooth, replies, "it continues to keep the GRITS legacy alive and leaves the fans on the edge while waiting for the next GRITS release." [5] Signaling in a two and a half star review at Christianity Today , Andree Farias responds, "The new tracks ("Changes," "I Try," "Time to Pray") are all vintage GRITS, with a vibe that's soulful, old-school, and meditative, not unlike the duo's Dichotomy A and the Factors projects. They're really the main incentive to get 7, which seems well-intentioned if you're a latecomer to the GRITS party, but unnecessary if you're already a fan of the group." [1]
