Critical reception
The Golden Age was met with critical acclaim from music critics. Edwin Ortiz of HipHopDX called the mixtape "EP-worthy" and said, "Despite its setbacks, The Golden Age manages to be a solid offering from Dizzy Wright. Considering the fact that he’s released four projects in the last two years, with another expected by year's’ end in The Second Agreement, it’s admirable to see a young artist continue to build without breaking stride."
