Artist 2.0 divided music critics. iHeart praised the album as A Boogie's "most authentic project yet," noting its exploration of various genres, including rock, R&B, and jazz, reflecting his true self. Ratings Game Music commended the deluxe edition for its dynamic flows, infectious melodies, and personal storytelling, particularly highlighting tracks like "Bleed" and "It's Crazy". Some reviewers noted that the album's sound became repetitive by track 10, with limited variation in style and production. Critics pointed out that the album offered little new to fans, with some suggesting that the deluxe edition tracks were not strong enough to redeem the overall project.
