"We in da City" was later remixed with a new verse from Dro's Grand Hustle label boss T.I., which was released on July 10, 2015. The single reached number two on the US Bubbling Under R&B/Hip-Hop Singles chart. The album's second single, "Ugh", produced by Zaytoven, was released on August 21, 2015. On August 5, 2015, Dro released a mixtape to promote the album, titled Hellcat, produced entirely by Zaytoven. The music video for "Ugh" was premiered on September 9, 2015. Critical reception
The album received mixed reviews, with a 7.4 out of 10 from Pitchfork and a 2 out of 5 from HipHopDX. Critics responded positively to the single "Ugh", calling it "infectious" and "a melodic and busy hymnal", and praising its "tight flow and catchy hook". Alex Dionisio of Examiner.com, gave the album one out of five stars, writing, "In too many parts of Da Reality Show, Young Dro just hoots and hollers like a banshee, dissing his haters, threatening and perpetrating violence, arranging drug packages, taking the initiative to rep his own status and complaining about his sorry chances in life... the most troubling trait of Da Reality Show is its dumbed down gangsterism. Young Dro has some impressive vocal endurance, but what is the point if it is wasted on subject matter and tones that never enrich the listeners?" Track listing
