HipHopDX praised the EP, highlighting 2 Chainz's wordplay and technical ability and writing, "[2 Chainz] has morphed into one of the strongest wordsmiths in the game."[7] Scott Glaysher of XXL wrote, "2 Chainz delivers exactly what we want from him -- head-turning lines, solid beats and an aligned mixtape theme -- but the tape is missing that wow factor. [...] The new music is satisfying but by the same token, leaves listeners wanting more."[8]
