Evan Rytlewski of Pitchfork described Big K.R.I.T. as "almost incapable of making a song that's anything less than perfectly fine", continuing: "K.R.I.T. Iz Here might have been better off if K.R.I.T. had availed himself of a few swings and misses".[6] Writing on HipHopDX, Daniel Spielberger labelled the album as "neither a career-defining album nor a complete flop", also commenting "K.R.I.T. is on auto-pilot".[5]

gollark: Wait, based on completely\* reasonable\*\* interpretations of the rules, I actually *can* ping people anyway.
gollark: I half-expect you to just say "haha no I will not transfer ownership" in any case.
gollark: You could ban us *while* doing them and/or complain that our votes don't count.
gollark: We would probably be banned for that or something and also based on testing most don't care.
