Reception

The album was met with mostly positive reviews from music critics, and currently holds a Metacritic score of 70.[10] AllMusic gave the album 3.5 stars out of 5, saying "Stereo Typical's good-natured swagger marks Rizzle Kicks out as one of the British urban scene's most entertaining new talents."[10] Q magazine gave the album 3 out of 5 and called Rizzle Kicks "a pop prospect with a winning charm you just can't teach".[10] The Guardian called the album a "cute soundbed for quickfire lyrics that reveal them to be typical teenage boys" and gave it 4 out of 5.[10]

NME felt that the duo "tag-team across the record with a cheery glint, a self-deprecating wink and a boundless charm that's hard not to like" and gave the album 6 out of 10.[10] BBC Music said, in a positive review that the album is "An infectious introduction to some rightly rising pop-rap talents." MusicOMH called the album "an impressive debut album from Rizzle Kicks. Jordan and Harley confirm through their assured lyricism that they are not afraid of embracing their 18-year-old selves, producing an album that is accomplished, whilst also appealing to their Radio 1-listening peers." and awarded it 4 out of 5.[11] Clash music called it "a contemporary-pop triumph".[12]
