[3][4] The deluxe edition, titled 2 Alive (Geek Pack), was released on April 1, 2022, with additional guest appearances by Lil Uzi Vert and Lancey Foux.

[8] In a positive review, David Aaron Brake of HipHopDX wrote that "though he didn't expand beyond the sounds of his previous work, Yeat's latest is a master class in precision and knowing what the audience craves.

[10] In a mixed review, Alphonse Pierre of Pitchfork wrote that "the 21-year-old Portland rapper isn't doing anything all that new, but he has a refreshing album-focused approach, best listened to as one continuous stream, getting lost in the noisy madness".

[11] Writing for AllMusic, David Crone felt that the album's 20-song track list is "undeniably bloated, padded out with some fairly one-dimensional material".
