Jon Kirby writes in the 12th Annual Southern Music Issue of OXFORD AMERICAN MAGAZINE;
"G-Side is a group that has been on the brink of underground eminence for the bulk of their career, and they've been discovered several times. Effortless to enjoy, difficult to compartmentalize the most logical ways to describe them seem contradictions in terms. Outkast on steroids? On Quaaludes? Fair-trade gangsta rap? Their songs are evocative, empowering, and often autobiographical, fusing the good with the bad, and making responsible distinctions between the two. While applauded in the pages of the New York Times and The Village Voice, they've evaded mention from traditional rap rags like XXL or The Source. And though a web of Internet radio stations and podcasts keep the duo in heavy rotation, they've spent little time on actual radio airwaves outside of Northern Alabama."
