The album received generally positive reviews from music critics. August Brown of the Los Angeles Times said that although Gucci's "notoriously screwball wordplay takes a back seat to a more sedate menace", his "inimitable rasp is where it should be".[17] David Jeffries of AllMusic complimented the album's removal of "radio-friendly numbers and polish", and praised Drumma Boy's production.[18]

In contrast, Jesse Cataldo of Slant gave the album a more negative review, awarding it 2 out of 5 stars and criticizing Gucci's mediocrity.[19]
