In 2015, hip hop writer Brooklyn Russell declared the album 'trap rap's apotheosis' while observing its impact: 'Working with only a handful of Shawty Redd beats and his naturally raspy voice, Atlanta native Young Jeezy would lay down the blueprint for an entire region of rappers—virtually knocking big players like Lil Jon out of commission.'[11]
In 2012, Complex called the album one of the classic albums of the last decade.[12]
