Critical reception
Deeply Rooted was met with generally favourable reviews from music critics . AllHipHop reviewer praised the album, calling it "one of the better albums by one of the game's best emcees, and so that still makes for one of dopest hip-hop albums in recent years".[ 4] Aaron McKrell of HipHopDX found "musically, Deeply Rooted is low-key, superbly playing to Scarface's strengths. Piano loops and thick drums draw in the listener while allowing Scarface to take center stage on several tracks, providing the album with a cohesive feel without sounding repetitive".[ 7] Matt Jost of RapReviews praised N.O. Joe's production and called it "a vintage Scarface album".[ 8] AllMusic 's David Jeffries called it "an album that touches upon the man's beliefs with the key cut being 'God'".[ 5] Erin Lowers of Exclaim! concluded: "although Deeply Rooted may not hold up to previous albums in the grand scheme of his discography , the veteran once again planted seeds for his legacy to grow".[ 6]
