The album was generally criticized as being profane, racist, and crude.[3][4] Allmusic, which did not review the album, gave it three out of five stars.[2] "Nigger Fucker" resulted in Coe being accused of racism.[4][5] Neil Strauss described the album's material as "among the most racist, misogynist, homophobic and obscene songs recorded by a popular songwriter."[6] The lyrics included lines such as "And to think I'd ate the pussy / Where that big, black dick had been / And kissed the lips that sucked him off / Time and time again / It's enough to make a man throw up." Coe responded to the accusations by stating "Anyone that hears this album and says I'm a racist is full of shit".[7] He also stated that he contacted Strauss during the writing of the article, but Strauss only acknowledged talking to Coe's manager, who would only comment off the record.[1]
