The Los Angeles Times wrote: "Despite some inviting musical tracks, Funkdoobiest's drone of dissin' and tireless display of bravado dampens its debut." [6] Minya Oh of The Source thought the group lacked originality, "sound[ing] just like House of Pain [...] and Cypress Hill". She concluded: "With pop culture references and cliches thrown together their style really makes no kinda sense most of the time". [5]
