Critical reception

Bob Gulla of The Phoenix described the album as "a blissed-out merger of Prolyphic's smart rap/poetry and Reanimator's perfectly complementary beats and motifs."[1] Matt Rinaldi of AllMusic wrote, "Prolyphic lays his heartfelt verses over Reanimator's inventive beatwork, which combines loops, samples, and live instrumentation." Alan Ranta of PopMatters commented that "The beats are glowing with live instrument samples and boom-bap drums, easily on par with the finest yet released by the man, while the words glide as if born to those sounds."
