| AllMusic | |
AllMusic described the album as "both archival and of the present -- engrossing and energizing, to be blasted from every boombox," [1] while The Wall Street Journal called it a combination of "jazz, poetry and archival sounds on an album of category-defying sonic collages." [4] Chicago Tribune referred to it as "a dense, tour-de-force collection of improvisational jazz and punk poetry that enhances this musical legacy." [5] BrooklynVegan described the album as "coming off like speeches from a civil rights march set to a backdrop of jazz instrumentation and hip hop production." [3]
