Reception

Vaughan Healey of Cyclic Defrost felt that it is "a deceptively dense album: full of laddish appeal but balanced by peculiar turns, strong production values and a lyrical depth" with its tracks "structured around sophisticated metaphor and clever metre" and "it continues the Obese tradition of releasing idiosyncratic, upfront local hiphop."
