At Metacritic, which assigns a weighted average score out of 100 to reviews from mainstream critics, the album received an average score of 66, based on 10 reviews, indicating "generally favorable reviews".[4]
Dylan Kilby of MusicOMH gave the album 4 out of 5 stars, describing it as "a cluster of deep house grooves, chopped and screwed R&B vocals, and sub-bass that would be played at a futuristic Stonewall Inn."[9] Matt Bauer of Exclaim! gave the album an 8 out of 10, writing, "it jettisons its predecessor's more experimental tendencies in favour of psychedelic, neo-soul-pop filtered through Brainfeeder's expected eccentricity."[6] Larry Fitzmaurice of Pitchfork gave the album a 5.4 out of 10, commenting that "his choice to sing, rap, and sing-rap throughout In My World is obviously risky; his vocals tend to distract from what surrounds them, and his skill on the mic is, at best, rudimentary."[10]
