3ChordFold received generally positive reviews from music critics. Jay Balfour of HipHopDX gave the album four out of five stars, saying "Overall, 3ChordFold is a gratifying listen, in part, and this is beholden to Jazz albums of the past, because it’s full of memorable moments. Taken as a whole it acts as a smooth mix of R&B and Hip Hop (despite the previous term’s continually being encompassed by the second) and its best characteristic is its creator’s musicality. Even when building a song that might fit on the radio, Martin’s production has a dynamism too often missing in today’s Hip Hop. In the end, it’s hard to complain too much about a lack of truly deep lyricism when there is so much else to pick through. In 2011 Martin told MTV, “The good thing about music is you can just keep on doing it.” Free of the lifestyle agenda and celebrity of his peers, Martin may be a logical pick for continued musicianship in Hip Hop. As fans, we can only hope he just keeps on doing it."[7] Christian Mordi of XXL gave the album an XL, saying "With strong melodies, experimental textures and an array of stellar guest spots, 3chordfold is an often excellent album. Martin continues to showcase his ability to merge a mixture of jazz and funk backdrops with his California rhymes throughout the record. While early mixtapes like Locke High and Locke High 2 introduced the underground to Terrace Martin, 3ChordFold should open the door to many mainstream fans to a talented musician."[9] Zach Gase of RapReviews gave the album an 8.5 out of ten, saying "Terrace Martin is many things: a rapper, a producer, a saxophone player, among other things. On his debut full-length album, "3ChordFold" he expertly utilizes all of his skills to create one of the year's best records."[8]
