Critical reception

Thomas Quinlan of Exclaim! gave the album a 7 out of 10 and described it as "a fun, funky feel-good album for the summer."[2] Logan Smithson of PopMatters gave the album 5 stars out of 10, saying, "It's probably easier to appreciate Leanin' on Slick if you're older or a die-hard fan of Aceylone, but it's probably not a great album no matter what angle you're listening from."[3]

AllMusic named it as one of their "Favorite Hip-Hop/Rap Albums of 2013".[7]
