Michael G. Barilleaux of RapReviews.com said, ``For those who like a swell show of technical strength, a spin of this album will occupy your listen to and from the workplace quite well. For those seeking something more meaningful to go along with their skill showcase, however, don't feel bad about taking a pass on this one.'' In Vice, Robert Christgau said Ab-Soul's music ``emanates intellectual excitement and pleasure as he grows up'', highlighting the rapper's ``feminist-curious yearnings'' while remaining ambivalent toward his ``tree-huffing doggishness''.
