Critical reception

The Washington Post concluded that "there's some sex talk but little of the bitch-ho mentality; overall, it's a less bass-heavy, sonically lighter shade of funk." The Los Angeles Times noted that "Domino's rapping voice is slightly sing-songy, slightly nasal, a flexible instrument that insinuates itself into the grooves like a riffing alto sax; the hooks in the songs come from the implied melodic cadences in the rhymes."
