  1. 8.0 |   PopMatters

    Live from the Underground isn’t quite the reckoning we might have dreamed about, but it sits comfortably beside the other great records its author has cut

  2. 8.0 |   Q

    Manages to hit its marks with only the barest suggestion of compromise. Print edition only

  3. 7.5 |   Prefix

    Can be neatly divided in half by the stuff meant to satisfy the label, and stuff meant to satisfy the rapper

  4. 7.3 |   Beats Per Minute

    As major label rap debut albums go, Live from the Underground is a relative anomaly in that the artist seems to have escaped with most of his integrity intact

  5. 7.1 |   Pitchfork

    an exceptional rapper with a befitting production style who can make some very good music. It's just that, at this point, good isn't good enough

  6. 7.0 |   All Music

    An easy introduction to the man's talents and a crowd-pleasing effort with no stale sell-out aftertaste. He could have gone deeper, but this is certainly deep enough

  7. 7.0 |   Rolling Stone

    As on his mixtapes, this lovable throwback evokes his down-home life and day-to-day grind over the playacadillistic grooves of vintage Outkast and UGK
    Read Review

  8. 7.0 |   Consequence Of Sound

    A record with as many musical and lyrical contours as any other major-label rap album to come out this year
    Read Review

  9. 6.7 |   A.V. Club

    His commercial debut doesn’t drift too far from the luminous, Outkast-indebted funk of the three exceptional mixtapes that preceded it

  10. 6.0 |   Sputnik Music (staff)

    Offers nothing game-changing, but is definitely enjoyable
    Read Review

  11. 5.0 |   NME

    It breaks very little new ground – which does have the upside of the songs sounding catchy because you feel like you’ve heard it all before
