Stewart Mason of AllMusic wrote saying the album has "a 2006 updating of hip-house, marrying contemporary trends in both underground hip-hop and post-glitch electronic dance music, but largely steering clear of the pitfalls of both."[1] Dave Gurney of Tiny Mix Tapes said, "While such disparate elements may make a disjointed mess in the hands of less skilled producers, Fat Jon's skills hold these pieces together and give the track an infectious and irrepressible energy."[2] Exclaim!'s Kevin Jones said Five Deez "loat hip-hop up to the outer reaches of the atmosphere with a creative blend of complex rhythms, an exhaustive pallet of futuristic sounds, and a consistent amount of soul that forms the glue holding the together the many sonically exploratory elements."[3]
