Critical reception

The music critic Robert Christgau, who had previously criticized the alleged misogyny of Nixon's song "Stuffin' Martha's Muffin'", gave Root Hog or Die an A-, calling it "Nixon's finest artistic achievement". However, he was unimpressed with Roper's cuts, calling them "the usual yawn" and commenting that "Mojo's loyalty to his partner, who has-his-own-album-out God-help-us, is one reason I think he's got a good heart."
