Critical reception
Metropolis was well received by most critics. Tyler Chance of Noiseporn praised the extended plays sound design and production, describing it as "filthy" and "unique" and writing that each track is "unique in its own right" as the extended play traverses such genres as riddim, trap and midtempo bass. Writing for FUXWITHIT, Samuel Lewis and Steph Contant stated that the extended play presented Kompany and opportunity to craft "massive soundscapes with astounding depth and detail, crafting a complex labyrinth of bass to captivate and absorb the listener." Relentless Beat's Joshua Dean described the extended play as a story, noting "Firewall" as a "great buildup into an absolutely insane EP" and the last song, "Last Man Standing", as a "faultless ending to this masterpiece."
