    AtMetacritic, which assigns a weighted average score out of 100 to reviews from mainstream critics, the album received an average score of 85, based on 5 reviews, indicating "universal acclaim".[17]

    Dylan Kilby of MusicOMH gave the album four stars out of five, describing it as "a triumphant album by an extraordinary artist and woman, whose girl-empowering lyricism and social consciousness puts her at the top of the underground and alternative hip-hop community."[1] Killian Fox of The Guardian gave the album four stars out of five, saying: "At times joyfully nonsensical, Lizzo's stream-of-consciousness rhymes can also be lethally pointed."[19]

    Star Tribune placed the album at number 1 on the "Twin Cities Critics Tally 2013" list.[20]
