Critical reception

| rev1 = AllMusic | rev1score = | rev2 = Entertainment Weekly | rev2score = B+ | rev3 = Select | rev3score = | rev4 = The Guardian | rev4score = | rev5 = The Village Voice | rev5score = A− Select gave the album a two out of five rating. The review compared the album to the Judgment Night Soundtrack stating that it "did much the same thing, but it found room for curious hybrids like Teenage Fanclub and De La Soul. Only Everlast and Mobb Deep's 'Shook Ones'...shows anything like the same ambition here".
