You Disgust Me was met with generally favorable reviews from music critics. At Metacritic, which assigns a normalized rating out of 100 to reviews from mainstream publications, the album received an average score of 70, based on four reviews. [1]
Darryl Robertson of XXL praised the album, calling it "is another another project where the beatmakers show their knack for spitting gritty 16s and attempting to outdo each other on their head-nodding production. Once again, it works". [6] Jesse Fairfax of HipHopDX stated: "though their formula is simple, the pair takes precisely measured efforts to make sure each song remains true to their refined essence". [3] Mosi Reeves of Pitchfork wrote: "both are more than capable of crafting memorable hip-hop music, even if they're too focused on cranking out bangers at an industrial rate to notice whether anything they've made stands out". [4]
In his mixed review for AllMusic, David Jeffries wrote: "add a short runtime and You Disgust Me feels like an inflated EP of lost tracks and hidden heat, so marvel at their more crafted and conceptual albums, then come back here for a more free-form sampler of strange". [2]
