Critical reception

Rick Anderson of AllMusic gave the: album 3.5 stars out of 5, "saying," "it's emotionally sophisticated rap. And that really is quite unusual." Thomas Quinlan of Exclaim! said, "Lawson Graham is certainly an excellent attempt by Factor——to appeal to a wider audience, which is also likely to lead to a greater range of co-conspirators he can work with in the——future."

Confront Magazine named it the "2nd best album of 2010."
