Critical reception



3/info/crop" target="_blank">Crop 3/info/circle" target="_blank">Circle 3 received positive reviews from music critics. Writing for GRM Daily, Niall Smith wrote that "overall, 3/info/crop" target="_blank">Crop 3/info/circle" target="_blank">Circle 3 is a solid body of work" and that it's difficult to compare the album to Nines' past work. He stated that on the album, "there's a medley of cohesion, chaos and crystalline penmanship". AllMusic's David Crone wrote that the project is a "smooth, blunt-voiced trap & hip-hop" album and that he "[weaves] struggle and success together in the [his] signature narratives". In a positive review, Tara Joshi for The Guardian hinted towards Nines' retirement from music in her review, writing that "Nines is dreaming of a new, unconfined chapter: perhaps that’s why 3/info/crop" target="_blank">Crop 3/info/circle" target="_blank">Circle 3 sounds so enticingly free". The Observer's Damien Morris wrote that "we find Nines in a comfortable holding pattern" and that on the album, "he rehearses familiar topics" ranging from "his irresistibility to women" to "unfeasibly large bags of weed, and displays little desire to traverse deeper hinterlands".
