Seth Pereira of Premiere Hip Hop said, "DJ Cutt’s production on the album is the very antithesis to the new pseudo genre that has been masquerading as Hip Hop. The vast soundscape that he creates really shows his expertise and that he remains true to the legends Pete Rock and DJ Premier. He takes us back to a time when diggin’ in the crates was the primary method for obtaining great samples and sounds, rather than attempting to breathe new life into tired soundpacks downloaded using Google." Ryan Proctor writing for Wordplay Magazine stated, "Drawing on life experiences as well as his passion for Hip-Hop, M.I.’s meticulously well-structured verses contain both world-weary lessons and gems of optimism, walking a captivating line between street reportage and gritty philosophy." Taytula Burke of SampleFace UK said, "This is definitely one for fans of well-constructed rhymes and beats you can get lost in. While staying true to their Golden Era roots, Constant Deviants have managed to deliver an album that is still accessible to those just beginning their exploration of hip hop."
