Hip Hop Journalist Big Chew,of Rapmullet states "No mixtape series from top to bottom of the track list pops off like a Potent Product mixtape. Yea a couple other cats get a track or two here or there but they ain't messing with Diggz and Rated R man. You other DJs don't get mad just fall back and pay attention and maybe you too one day can have the # 1 series in the streets."
