Reception
Reviews for this album were mixed. Rating the album "L" (in its five-level clothing size rating system from "S" to "XXL"), XXL described "Dope Boy Magic" as having "endless head-turning punch lines...with different sequential number combinations" but described the tracks as "go[ing] in cliché circles" with "[c]orny brand-name drops." In a three-star (out of five) review, David Jeffries of AllMusic described the album as having an "identity crisis" due to tracks that he found "less convincing" than the "safe and tested surroundings" of "It's Goin' Down" and "I Know You See It." The Atlanta Journal-Constitution, based in Yung Joc's hometown, graded the album "C+", describing lead single "It's Goin' Down" as "simple...[but] infectious" while finding a lack of "a new, exciting reserve of wordplay and delivery." RapReviews found other tracks such as "Don't Play Wit It" to be better choices as a lead single.

For HipHopDX, Brian Sims rated New Joc City two out of five ("aluminum") due to what he called "reused lines" and a "dull mood plaguing most of the album." About "It's Goin' Down", Sims called the song "monotonous". Tom Breihan of Pitchfork described the album as having "no visible identity of purpose" and "bargain-basement minimal snap stuff."
