Background

The project was announced under the initial title Perfect Timing on May 3, 2021, alongside the release of what would have been the album's title track.[1] The single followed the release of the album's lead single "Bompton to Oak Park" on April 22, 2021.[2] Later, on May 18, 2021, the rappers announced the project's release date under the new title Kommunity Service, along with its track listing and cover art.[3] The artwork is a tribute to the cult classic film Belly and the late rapper DMX, showing YG and Mozzy in all-white suits and red bandana-print ties.[3] In a press release, YG stated that the project is "strictly for the streets." Mozzy added that they're "just doing [their] 'Kommunity Service'. West Coast been closed, so it's time to turn it back up."[3]

Kommunity Service was met with generally favorable reviews from critics. At Metacritic, which assigns a weighted average rating out of 100 to reviews from mainstream publications, this release received an average score of 75, based on four reviews.[4]

Wesley McLean of Exclaim! wrote that the album "manages to deliver on almost every front. It's an impressive collaborative effort from two of California's brightest stars, yet another solid release in Mozzy's rapidly expanding catalogue and a much-needed return to form for YG following a few subpar releases".[6] Ben Brutocao of HipHopDX wrote: "Mozzy’s strengths are YG’s weaknesses and vice-versa, which is the making of an ideal collaboration. There is an iron-clad authenticity to every note and word on the album: It’s rap that makes you start doing pushups, rap that you’ll most likely hear in the next Fast and Furious movie, and most importantly, rap that you’ll remember for longer than a few weeks".[7] AllMusic's Fred Thomas resumed "although Kommunity Service is short, it still shows versatility by approaching various styles track to track".[5] Paul A. Thompson of Pitchfork wrote: "while Kommunity Service only hints at what a true synthesis of those artists could be, at times the implication is enough".[8]
