Critical reception

David Jeffries of AllMusic gave the EP 3.5 stars out of 5, saying: "Putting 'EP' on the cover keeps the collection from being over-judged, but hopefully won't keep it from being overlooked."[2] Shawn Lawrence James of AllHipHop called it "a delicious appetizer for those craving food for thought in between his full length LP’s."[1] Nick Stillman of Prefix gave the EP a 6.0 out of 10, saying, "We Live shows no evidence of any great progression or downfall from a rapper who, at the very least, is consistently decent."[3]

gollark: Technically, putting the whole lua thing in a string and escaping it *would* also be JSON.
gollark: It would probably have been better as an array, but I converted it myself, so it's fine.
gollark: I want to make it a public API.
