source rating
laut.de

On the website laut.de Alexander Austel rated the EP with two out of a possible five points. Above all, he criticized Fler's texts, whereas the productions by Nico Chiara were praised.

Louis Richter from the website rap.de described the EP as an “unadulterated South Berlin battlerap in a trap garb”. Fler hardly has anything new to tell in terms of content, but knows how to convince in terms of rap technology and skillfully convey the atmosphere. The beats are of a high standard and the songs are targeted "warning shots" at other rappers like Kollegah and Animus .
