  ## Critical reception
  
  Larry Flick from Billboard wrote, "Stereo MC's drop some dope (and topical) rhymes on the funk-line hip-hopper "Lost In Music". Remixes by Ultimatum maintain the streetwise vibe of the album version while adding proper club-viable nuances. Love the Hammond organ fills and wriggling bass. Get "lost"." Andrew Smith from Melody Maker commented, "Call me a cynic, but sometimes when I listen to Stereo MCs, I still can't believe that Britain could be capable of producing rap music this good. [...] It lopes and lilts along with the easy grace of a cat toying with its prey, full of little rhythmic twists and melodic flourishes. If you're looking for comparisons, the Jungle Brothers and De La Soul are good places to start, but that only tells part of the story." James Hamilton from Music Week described the song as "Jagger-cum-ragga style drawled catchy rumblingly chugging pop rap."
