Critical reception[]

At Metacritic, which assigns a weighted average score out of 100 to reviews from mainstream critics, the album received an average score of 79, based on 6 reviews, indicating "generally favorable reviews".[3]

Jake Paine of HipHopDX gave the album a 4.0 out of 5, saying: "The artist knows he might not fit into the musical worlds that influenced him, but he pays homage to them without sacrificing much of his own dignity."[4] Hari Ashurst of Pitchfork wrote, "there's enough of a sweet spot in the clean, backward-leaning production and offbeat samples to allow the record to distinguish itself as more than a sum of disparate parts."[5]

Rhapsody placed it at number 8 on the "Top 20 Hip-Hop Albums of 2012" list.[15] Stereogum placed it at number 25 on the "Top 40 Rap Albums of 2012" list.[16]
