Critical reception
Template:Album ratings The Washington Post noted that "Chi-Ali wrote most of his own lyrics for The Fabulous Chi-Ali... But with all his outlandish and gratuitous talk of womanizing and gunslinging, you wonder if he took the words in all his old Big Daddy Kane and EPMD records a little too seriously."[1]
