Thomas Quinlan of Exclaim! described the album as "a fun, funky feel-good album for the summer." [5] Logan Smithson of PopMatters said, "It's probably easier to appreciate Leanin' on Slick if you're older or a die-hard fan of Aceylone, but it's probably not a great album no matter what angle you're listening from." [6]

AllMusic named it as one of their "Favorite Hip-Hop/Rap Albums of 2013". [7]
