John Bush of AllMusic gave the album 4.5 out of 5 stars, stating that ""Wanna Buy a Monkey?" doesn't just collect a few of his rarer credits, but fits them into one of the best mix albums of the year." Rob Mitchum of "Pitchfork" gave the album a 4.0 out of 10, writing: "Part of the problem lies in the musically segregated organization of the album, as the Automator's hip-hop selections are clumped into the front and back, while the indie-friendly picks comprise the creamy center."
