  Sheldon Pearce of Pitchfork gave the album a 7.4 out of 10, calling it "[Milo's] most fascinating work to date, filling weird, side-winding productions that deflate and wheeze with tumbling lyricism delivered in near spoken word cadences." Gary Suarez of The Quietus wrote, "producer Kenny Segal leans towards jazz abstractions, full of billowy smoke instead of the more typical boom bap dust."
  
  It was ranked at number 26 on Rolling Stone's "40 Best Rap Albums of 2015" list, as well as number 37 on Spin's "50 Best Hip-Hop Albums of 2015" list.
