A full endorsement of the lyricism, rhymes & beats on display opens with "From the instant you hear the first cut. you are both engaged and threatened by what you hear....He has thrown ‘today’s hip hop’ on it’s head and as a listener you can not remove the headphones" as the review goes into the finer points behind the key elements of the release, before summarizing "Each thump of the snare and each phrase uttered is a constant reminder of what hip hop should be in this day and age. Righteous Fury is an album that serves a matter of retribution for anyone who has devalued what hip hop is today."
