AllMusic | [2] |
The album was generally criticized as being profane, racist, and crude.[3][4] AllMusic, which did not review the album, gave it three out of five stars.[2] "Nigger Fucker" resulted in Coe being accused of racism.[4][5] Neil Strauss described the album's material as "among the most racist, misogynist, homophobic and obscene songs recorded by a popular songwriter."[6] Coe responded to the accusations by stating "Anyone that hears this album and says I'm a racist is full of shit".[7] He also stated that he contacted Strauss during the writing of the article, but Strauss only acknowledged talking to Coe's manager, who would only comment off the record.[1]
