Critical reception.
"Beauty and the Beast" received generally positive reviews from critics. "HipHopDX" reviewer Marcus Dowling called it "a stellar take on her strengths", albeit one that does not "experiment enough with her delivery to truly carry Jamla's searing production." Justin Charity from "Complex" regarded the EP as "a work of brute strength and self-determination. There’s zero capitulation to popular taste." In "Vice", Robert Christgau called it an "underground rap manifesto as genuinely worthwhile endeavor", citing "Hard to Choose" and "The Man" as highlights.
