"Papi Chulo" features Tha Dogg Pound member Daz Dillinger.[6]
The Hartford Courant noted "the relative lack of filler and the DJ Ralph M.'s original approach to samples."[6] The Chicago Tribune wrote: "Opting to entertain rather than overwhelm, Funkdoobiest's third album wins with laughs and their trademark off-kilter presentation ... '!Oyi Papi!' is hard-core Latino hip-hop at its finest."[3] The Austin American-Statesman stated: "Sampling from a brightly colored sonic palette of beats, cultures, languages and guest MCs ... Funkdoobiest has created the ultimate urban cruisin' soundtrack—on which the moods change as fast as the passing landscape."[7]
