Dani Fromm from the website laut.de rated Buck the World with two out of a possible five points. She describes Young Bucks Rap for the most part as "incredibly boring, fun and tempo-free." On the other hand, some beats "easily deserved the rating" Particularly valuable "" and the guest contribution by Snoop Dogg is also praised. Ultimately, however, the album was "largely unspectacular to quite lame."
