Anchovies is the first collaborative studio album by American DJ/record producer Apollo Brown and West Coast hip hop recording artist Planet Asia.

ABC News reviewer praised the album, saying it "nicely pairs Brown's historically knowledgeable beats with Planet Asia's street-wise rhymes.

Anchovies is at times a disarming collection, thick with old-school freshness" and called it "vintage hip-hop to the bone".

[4] Rajin of Extraordinary Nobodies recommended the album "to anyone who likes hip hop in any capacity, because it may offer a glimpse into a style that not as many people are exposed to, while not being a challenging listen".

[8] AllMusic's Paul Simpson wrote: "the combination of hard rhymes and soft music might come off as disconcerting to some listeners, hence the "ain't for everybody" warning near the beginning of the album, as well as its title itself, but it would seem more jarring if Brown and Asia weren't so highly skilled at their respective crafts".
