Critical reception



The mixtape received mixed reviews. Torsten Ingvaldsen of Hypebeast praised the mixtape, calling it "nothing short of an achievement for the young up-and-comer", and said that Tecca "showcases his talent for crafting a project that holistically pits him at its center."
Daniel Spielberger of HipHopDX, however, stated that the mixtape is a repetitive collection of "mostly muddled tracks that only occasionally show promise." An unnamed writer from Musicjo called the mixtape a "missed opportunity", writing, "instead of rapping about something deep, Tecca restricts himself and operates on a superficial level."
