Critical reception
Stephen Thomas Erlewine of Allmusic gave the album four-and-a-half stars, praising Scott's outlaw country influences and the "wry humor". He called the title track "very funny [and] very appealing".[1] Country Standard Time reviewer Michael Sudhalter made a similar comparison to outlaw country.[2] Giving it a "B", Chris Willman of Entertainment Weekly said that Scott "has an old-school baritone and classic country cockiness".[3] Ray Waddell of Billboard gave a mixed review. He wrote that Scott "offers some much-needed Music Row testosterone on ballads like 'I Didn't Come Here to Talk'" and said that Scott sings "more than capably", but thought that Scott was trying to establish credibility by name-dropping on the title track.[4]
