Although "It's Nothing" failed to chart or receive an accompanying music video, it elicited positive critical attention: Tom Doggett of RapReviews.com considers it comparable to The Beatnuts' 1997 hit single "Off the Books" because of its flute sample. Robert DeGracia of AllHipHop.com claims that "It's Nothing" proves the great prowess of Beatnuts production, whilst complementing guest rapper A.G..
