  1. 9.0 |   PopMatters

    Wack is more than just critical commentary, raunchy comedy, and greatest hits. It’s also a loving tribute to hip hop, giving nods to some of the cherished moments in the genre

  2. 7.5 |   A.V. Club

    Even with the occasional duds, The Lonely Island’s hits make up for its misses

  3. 7.1 |   Pitchfork

    It’s silly, it’s in no shape or form subtle, it’s fun, it works

  4. 7.0 |   Rolling Stone

    The secret weapon is musical skill: TLI are versatile MCs, and A-list producers turn jokes into pro-grade pop and hip-hop

  5. 7.0 |   All Music

    Most impressive about The Wack Album is that The Lonely Island manage to get their jokes across without feeling like they're making fun of rap

    TLI’s first to more or less play out with a lot of the same contours you’d find on a legitimately great rap record

  8. 6.0 |   NME

    Another reliable, if disposable, set of jock-party parodies

  9. 5.0 |   Spin

    Our hosts have yet to learn one of comedy's most important lessons: All the fart jokes in the world are no substitute for the occasional bit of restraint
