Critical reception
[edit]XXL called the album "lush with pounding production and dense similes."[4]
AllMusic wrote: "Awash in slow and mid-tempo tracks emblazoned with the dusty, cut-up R&B samples of NYC's '90s heyday, Boot Camp rolls thick through piano drops and sparely framed tracks, rapping about money, women, and street pride."[10]
