Critical response
The Bumpy Johnson Album was met with generally favorable reviews from music critics. Jesse Fairfax of HipHopDX gave the album three and a half stars out of five, saying "The Bumpy Johnson Album celebrates Prodigy's longevity as he continues mastering perseverance, his knack for surviving rough neighborhoods and other general obstacles detailed on "Stronger." While his typically threatening tone is present throughout much of the material, an increased sense of wisdom is found (possibly resulting from his 2008-2011 jail stint) showing potential for further enlightenment down the line. Aside from being subject to repetitive self-important content regarding his accomplished act, fans should wind up reassured this dynamic emcee is back on the right track holding his own without a partner or popular misplaced features to boost his visibility."
