Critical reception

Kevin Jones of Exclaim! gave the album a favorable review, saying: "With no shortness of inspiration, Zion I and the Grouch ensure that not a minute of this record goes to waste, matching engaging auditory pleasure with words that actually amount to something." Marisa Brown of AllMusic called it "partially introspection, partially consciousness, and partially hyphy-inspired dance music." Eric K. Arnold of East Bay Express wrote: "This collaborative effort presented an alternate view of Bay Area rap, one more concerned with quality-of-life issues than grill-pieces and rims."
