Critical reception
The Morning Call called the album "a fairly ho-hum affair from these Philly natives, only punctuated by some sterling production that is never matched by either passion or innovation on the lyrical bent".

AllMusic wrote: "With at least seven rappers working in various combinations, the group varies its sound effectively. Unfortunately, beyond musical interest, there is little but the usual nomenclature of gangsta rap to be found in the actual words".
