The release of "Local Rappers" was met with different opinions among music critics with some commending the artists for rapping in their local dialects while some perceived the song to be a diss track against rappers in Nigeria who rapped in English language.[3] It was reported in the media that Mode 9 was unimpressed with Reminisce over some lines in the lyrics of the song. Mode 9 went on to deny such reports as "untrue".[4]
