| AllMusic |   [4] |
| RapReviews.com | 6.5/10[5] |
Rick Anderson of AllMusic gave the album 4 out of 5 stars, writing, "One or two tracks hit less hard than the others, but in each of those cases it's because Zion I took a risk and it didn't quite pay off -- and the willingness to take musical risks is one that needs to be encouraged in today's hip-hop world."[4] Meanwhile, Patrick Taylor of RapReviews.com gave the album a 6.5 out of 10, stating that "I wish they would experiment in music that I found less objectionable."[5] Imran Khan of PopMatters wrote, "The album was stripped down to mainly just beats and vocals, revealing the bare essentials of the duo's aestheticism."[6]
