Critical reception
Welcome to the Zoo received mixed reviews from critics. Steve 'Flash' Juon from RapReviews praised Gorilla for his voice and humorous lyrics but felt he was being dragged by the typical hip-hop clichés concluding with, "Welcome to the Zoo proves that Zoe has star potential - it's just that he may have been shoved into the spotlight prematurely." Jason Birchmeier of AllMusic said that the album was well-produced but criticized Zoe for being too similar to Young Jeezy, saying that "Jeezy can be witty and adorns his raps with a signature array of ad libs." Robert Christgau rated the album as a "choice cut", highlighting "Money Man", "Take Your Shoes Off" and "Do Something" as standout tracks.
