Critical reception

At Metacritic, which assigns a weighted average score out of 100 to reviews from mainstream critics, the album received an average score of 69% based on 4 reviews, indicating "generally favorable reviews".[2]

Jason Lymangrover of AllMusic gave the album 3.5 stars out of 5, saying: "Two skills he has mastered in the past, mood and texture, make this record especially listenable, although sometimes the productions are so professionally crafted that they sound sterile."[3] He called it "a great showcase for his digital, beat-oriented productions and kaleidoscopic tastes."[3]
