Upon its release, the album has received widespread critical acclaim. Aaron McKrell of HipHopDX gave the album 4.2 out of 5, claiming it was "worth fans' patience" and an effective introduction to "a troubled young man with a brilliant mind whose musings are starkly engaging". Trey Alston from Pitchfork said "The Compton rapper's debut is smart, technically dazzling, and thoroughly sullen". In a one-listen review, Yoh Phillips from DJBooth said "Boogie reminds me of a film director who is able to turn every actor before their lens into a character that the audience feel as if they know personally".[15] The album was positively received by Complex Media's morning debate show "Everyday Struggle". The album's maturity and features were particularly well-liked.[16] XXL Magazine lauded Boogie's no holds barred brand of self awareness, noting "He doesn’t have it all figured out. He gets sad and angry and knows he needs to improve". The publication gave the album an "XL" on a "S" to "XXL" scale.

Commercial performance

The album debuted at number 28 on the US Billboard 200 and number 18 on the US Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart, selling 18,397 album-equivalent units in its first week.[17]
