Allmusic's Alex Henderson gave the album three out of five possible ratings and wrote that the album included songs from the gangsta rap genre as well as fun songs like Fat Girl and Drink It Up . Overall, the album would not come close to Straight Outta Compton , but it is still a historically important CD.
