Critical reception
The New York Times called the album chaotic, but often successful in spite of itself. They called his rhymes nimble but cluttered and said he is out-rapped by almost all of his guests here, including Game on "Carton of Milk" and Lloyd Banks on "Take a Bow". They also stated his standout tracks are the lead single, "Perfect Day " and the Wiz Khalifa -esque "Heart Attack" stating that he is so at ease, so comfortable on those tracks, that he begins to sound skillful.[ 8] John Kennedy of Vibe gave a fairly positive review calling the utopian "Perfect Day" catchy and saying vulnerable moments ("Changing the Locks" and "Heart Attack") round the album out, while hometown collabos ("Take A Bow" with Prodigy, Lloyd Banks, Sen City and "Drops Is Out" with Raekwon , Mel Matrix, Sen City) fly highest.[ 9]
The album debuted at number 20 on the Billboard 200 , selling 21,000 copies in its first week.[ 10] In its second week, the album sold 8,200 copies.[ 11]
