The Death of Me is the second solo album by West Coast hip hop artist Ahmad, following sixteen years after his debut.

Nathan S. of DJ Booth wrote "Ahmad’s rhyme skills are as sharp as ever, and perhaps more importantly his time with 4th Avenue Jones has allowed him to develop a style completely and absolutely his own.

"[5] On the song Run Up on Me Tho, Kevin Gary of HipHopdx wrote that "Ahmad nevers switches up his flow, but it works very well.

On the album's lead single Get Some Money and Go 2 Jail, DJ Booth wrote that "Ahmad follows closely with raspy-voiced rhymes delivered in the flowing, semi-melodic cadences, resulting in a track that’s not only impossible to keep from getting stuck in your head, but provides some aptly comic social commentary as well."

On the track Don’t Run…Again, DJBooth wrote that he "juxtaposes rapid-fire percussion and a single piano stroke melody for an exploration of scared love."
