AllMusic

In a retrospective review, Stewart Mason of AllMusic wrote that Do Wah Nanny "moves away a bit from the voodoo imagery" of Ezuma's previous two albums, "instead going for a good-timey sound similar to the New Orleans gumbo of Dr. John." Mason concluded, "Exuma and his mostly percussive band wend their way through the eight mostly lengthy ('22nd Century' runs nine droning minutes) tracks with the mixture of smoldering passion and infectious joy that's at the heart of Bahamian music."
