Chris Murray, reviewer of RPM, left positive overlook on album. He wrote: "Although the name might sound lightweight, this female duo from the UK delivers some aggressive rhymes backed by some fat and funky beats. Thoughtful production avoids the sparseness that plagues the releases of so many lesser known rap artists. Occasional sampling, when used, Is employed primarily as ear candy, rather than being thrust into the spotlight to grab listeners by providing them with something easily recognizable." [6]
