Critical reception

Steve Huey of AllMusic gave the album 4.5 stars out of 5, commenting that "the shifting classical samples of the title track make it one of the best productions in his catalog."[1] David M. Pecoraro of Pitchfork gave the album a 7.3 out of 10, saying, "Sure, it's often funny, and occasionally exciting, but ultimately, the attention to detail inherent in previous works has been marked absent.[5] Shan Fowler of PopMatters named it one of the best albums of 2001.[7]
