Critical reception

The Los Angeles Times concluded that "the CD ends up a sour and dispiriting experience because it forces us to keep extended company with a trio of rappers who put everything into sullen attitude and can't find the wit to skewer targets inventively or the self-mockery to find some humor in their lot."
