Critical reception

Gregory Heaney of AllMusic said "While the album would never be accused of being edgy, it has a catchy streak a mile long. Breezy, laid-back, and effervescent, Us Against Them is a rap album built more for summer drives than dancefloor-busting house parties, and its pulsing beats and wistful lyricism make this an album destined for road trip mixes."
