Liberation 2 is a story of how agents can never stop true creatives from linking up and building. Our partnership with Luminary allows us to retain ownership, allowing us to create an exclusive experience for listeners. I'm excited to be at the forefront of Luminary's foray into the music space, and we have a chance to change the industry for the better with the release of this album.

HipHopDX's Riley Wallace rated this album a 4.5 out of 5, calling it "a masterpiece" and also "timeless and devoid of any gimmicks or trendy timestamps" as well as perfectly timed.[2] Writing for RapReviews, Sy Shackleford writes that the use of guest artists "exhibits a unity from within", but criticizes some production choices.[3]
