AttenCHUN! received mixed reviews from music critics who questioned the production, overreliance on interludes and Crusher's vocal delivery. Rob Theakston of AllMusic said that despite the album feeling over-stuffed with clichéd interludes and stale beats, he praised Crusher's vocal delivery for being interesting and working well with the featured guests, saying that "it's still better than most coming out of the Dirty South in 2003."[2] HipHopDX writer Jacintah also commented on the lacking production and Crusher's delivery on the hooks as negatives but still complimented the album for showcasing Crusher's charismatic delivery and being able to transcend different emotions throughout the tracks.[3] Spyce of The Situation said that after the second track, the album begins to go flat in its beats and Crusher's hard-edged delivery starts to meander, saying that "Even die hard fans will be hard pressed to find anything fresh and unexpected on this album which results in you feeling that you missed out on something."[5] Rolling Stone criticized the album for being over-packed with production and vocals that were lacking and monotonous.[4]
