Jake Paine of HipHopDX gave the album a 3.5 out of 5 saying "If the title was any indication, Killmatic merges two things—seedy subject matter and Golden-Era style.
Swinga of HipHopSite gave the album a 4 out of 5 saying "The who-gives-a-fuck mentality of Killmatic comes through in both its brazen lyrical content and its flagrant sample selection.
The lyrical content is a contest of jabs, designed to shock the listener and instigate friendly competition within the crew".
And that "As hip-hop music continues to deteriorate into something only used to sell bottles (whether it be champagne or soda), it’s nice to see a crew of dudes like Demigodz still holding it down after a decade plus in the game, especially when many of the cats that came up in their era have more or less hung up their mics".
