At Metacritic, which assigns a weighted average score out of 100 to reviews from mainstream critics, the album received an average score of 80, based on 10 reviews, indicating "generally favorable reviews".[3]

Jason Lymangrover of AllMusic described Odd Nosdam's production as "a top-shelf blend of golden age and futuristic beats".[4] Jon Hadusek of Consequence of Sound said, "there’s really no better album to start the KD saga with; producer Odd Nosdam's wobbling, jazzy beats give the record a laid-back cohesion, and Serengeti sounds as tight as ever."[6]

Spin included it on the "40 Best Hip-Hop Albums of 2013" list.[9]
