Allmusic - "...an intriguing hip-hop album chocked with the trio's intricate speed-raps and freestyling. The production...provides an excellent accompaniment to the raps on highlight tracks like "Intention to Kill" and "Wild Side." [4]

The Source (11/99, p. 224) "...these three possess that country-twanged, tongue-twisting rhyming ability that has gained the Midwest its notoriety...the majority of the beats are original and provide the right amount of head nod to complement each quickened rhyme..." [5]
