Critical reception
The album received mixed reviews from critics. The featured artists, honesty displayed, and versatility of the tracks were generally appreciated.

Variety gave the album a positive review, praising the authenticity of its message. Jada Vernon, for Respect My Region, praised the versatility of styles and emotions displayed throughout the album. Maria Sherman, for Associated Press, gave a positive review, highlighting "the no-skip, smooth transitions" of the album.

Alphonse Pierre of Pitchfork commented that the title is "an attempt to convince the music world that their X-rated anthems of tricking and scamming haven't lost any edge" as the duo are "on a mission to regain their spot as the dirtiest, most provocative hitmakers in rap. Too bad they sound too splintered to get there" as "they don't feel like they're on the same wavelength nearly often enough".
