Tory Rosso of BeatRoute gave the album a favorable review, writing: "Consisting of 23 tracks for an astounding 82 minutes, the record is an eclectic backdrop of resonance and jingle."[7] Will Schube of Bandcamp Daily described it as "an album that's both the best encapsulation of Busdriver's mission and ethos, and a radical rearranging of rap's boundaries."[6]
