Critical reception

[edit]

Steve Huey of AllMusic commented 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 said, "Sure, it's often funny, and occasionally exciting, but ultimately, the attention to detail inherent in previous works has been marked absent."[4] Shan Fowler of PopMatters named it one of the best albums of 2001.[8]
