Birchmeier also talked about how it is the age-old scenario—if Joe's not keepin' it real on the streets the grimy way, he's loungin' like a pimp and livin' large" and that "A few albums into his career, Joe has this approach down to a science." Overall the album was giving a rating of 3.5 stars by the critic.[3]
