RapReviews praised its underground sound, calling it "anything but a commercial album."^[2] Maestro also changed his image to reflect hip hop fashion in the mid-1990s; "Gone was the tuxedo, replaced by a hoodie."^[2]

The album was a commercial failure and after its release, many members of Toronto's hip-hop community began dissing Maestro.^[4][5] However, it was nominated for Best Rap Recording at the 1995 Juno Awards.
