Critical reception


"Redemption" received positive reviews from music critics. Ovie O of NotJustOk praised Jesse Jagz for getting inspiration from top Jamaican acts "to deliver conscious dancehall music."[6] A writer for OkayAfrica said the song is "anchored on an addictive clink-clank beat and swerving synth melody, which Jesse Jagz expertly rides and molds into a hip-hop-meets-dancehall gem."[7] Alex Amos of Onobello considers Jesse Jagz to be "the truth" and said the record "expresses his confidence in the path that he has chosen."[8] A writer for Pulse Nigeria commended Jesse Jagz's rastafarian delivery and said he started his imprint in style.[9]
