Jason Birchmeier of AllMusic highlighted the album's influence from California gangsta rap groups, mainly N.W.A. [1] Steve 'Flash' Juon of RapReviews described the album as "an easily forgettable album that gives no insight into the worldwide phenomenon that No Limit Records would soon become", adding that "even diehard Master P fans can skip this release." [2] In his book Third Coast: Outkast, Timbaland, and How Hip-hop Became a Southern Thing, Roni Sarig wrote that the album "fared much better". [4]
