Reception

edit

Reviewer and Triple J announcer Dom Alessio described the album as "a veritable roll call of Aussie hip-hop’s patricians, it’s indicative of the amount of kudos in the bank for M-Phazes", adding "Good Gracious really serves as a great introduction into the stronger facets of Australian hip-hop."[2] Dan Rule of The Vine described it as "an incredibly well balanced record and one that exemplifies M-Phazes’ deft ability to craft not just a kicking beat, but a full-length album of them."[3] A review on Sputnik Music praised the production and beats.[4]
