[1][2] The album features guest appearances from Kardinal Offishall, Tech N9ne, Irv Da Phenom, Anjuli Stars, David Correy, Stevie Stone and Kendall Morgan.

spoke about why they chose to title the album Believers, saying: We felt like we wanted to talk about the people who are true ¡MAYDAY!

Alec Siegel of DJBooth gave the album four and half stars out of five, saying Although the majority of Believers is a high quality melting pot of sounds and vocals, the album has its flaws, and hits an especially rough patch of three tracks beginning with My Life and ending with Tear Sh*t Down.

The latter’s chorus sounds like a throwaway Black Eyed Peas song, and Wrekonize and Bernz seem to slow down their flow and dumb down their lyrics a bit.

This sobering, short lived mid-album dip in quality doesn’t last long though, as the band picks things up immediately and finishes the festivities with some of the album’s best tracks (Forever New, Shortcuts and Dead Ends).

[6] Andres Vasquez of HipHopDX gave the album four out of five stars, saying Believers is another notch in Strange Music’s belt, one that explains why ¡Mayday!

[7] David Jeffries of AllMusic gave the album three and a half stars out of five, saying Strange thing is, everything works, and yet Believers doesn't flow as well as 2012's like-minded Take Me to Your Leader.
