Stanton Swihart of AllMusic praised the work, calling the group's debut "one of the most infectious rap albums ever created."[1]Trouser Press called the album "highly amiable," writing that the group's "subtle Afrocentric politics came coated in tasty upbeat rhymes."[5]Complex wrote that the album revives "the barbershop quartet-style group dynamics of early hip-hop crews like the Treacherous 3 and the Cold Crush Brothers."[9]Fact called it "a jolly throwback affair ... enlivened by Busta’s freewheeling presence and some smart production work."[10]
