Critical reception
The Grimy Awards received favourable reviews from critics with Allmusic rating the album a 3.5 out of 5 stars saying, "This one winds up the Ill Bill album to pick winning the grimy award for Best Overall, and bringing the rapper one step closer to a lifetime achievement."
gollark: It's mentally challenging, sometimes, but obviously not particularly physically hard.
gollark: There are lots of cool applications now. Automatic generation of art, protein folding, human-level competitive programming, good OCR.
gollark: Ah, but it's *very complicated* curve fitting which can sometimes do interesting things.
gollark: Any particular improvement might not work, but I would be *very very surprised* if people several hundred years ago just happened to stumble on the optimal court system.
gollark: *An* issue is that sentencing can vary significantly based on judges' arbitrary opinions and how they are feeling. So maybe if you averaged over multiple judges once the facts of the case were determined it would help. Although there are a lot of ways for that to go wrong (messing with the framing of those and such).
