Critical reception

Todd Kristel of AllMusic gave the album 3 stars out of 5, saying, "with its thick, low-end heavy beats, some good scratches, and Breezly Brewin's deft flow, this album is generally appealing." [1] Greg Doherty of SF Weekly said, "The production is uncompromisingly grainy and midtempo -- the opposite of slick -- with the lyrics carrying most of the momentum." [3] Matt Kallman of Pitchfork gave the album an 8.2 out of 10, commenting that "The bonus tracks are a nice touch in and of themselves, and have some worth considering the limited output of anything wholly Juggaknots, period." [2]
