Dani Fromm from the website laut.de rated the album with three out of a possible five points. Lloyd Banks' lecture is described as "flowing, steady, a bit scratched, but at the same time unusually melodious". The instrumentals are also very varied, whereas the topics only revolve around “bills - sluts - carts - creaking”.
