HipHopDX reviewed Cadillacticalast week and gave the album a 4.5/5 rating. “With Cadillactica he’s found his stride by taking new steps,” the reviewer noted. “K.R.I.T. isn’t slept on, but he’s proven again that he should have a bigger bandwagon by now. Once he does he’ll throw some fifteens in the back and keep it moving.”
