Spin editor Mikael Wood noted that with Turbo 919, Garrett "demonstrates that his behind-the-boards work has prepared him reasonably well for a turn in the spotlight. Unfortunately, few of Garrett's ideas about romance have evolved past the knuckle-dragging stage, which weighs down Turbo 919's sleek, precision-geared beats with loads of brain-dead machismo." [3] In a negative review for About.com, Mark Edward Nero wrote: "Garrett is nowhere near as good of a singer as he is a songwriter. He may have been partially responsible for such hits as Usher's "Yeah!," Ciara's "Goodies" and Chris Brown's "Run It!," but Turbo 919 is a hit-less, witless mess that's a strong contender for worst album of the year."
