Critical reception

Allmusic wrote positively: "For one, she (Afeni Shakur) outsources the new productions to a trustworthy producer on a hot streak, Eminem, who works his magic on a trio of tracks: "Ghost," the powerful album opener; "One Day at a Time (Em's Version)," a thoughtful posse track with Em and the Outlawz."[2] Rapreviews was also proud: "Eminem takes a far more direct role on his revision of the Outlawz song "One Day at a Time," adding a verse of his own to the song."[3]
