SourceRating
HipHopDX3.8/5[2]

HipHopDX gave the album a rating of 3.8 out of 5, with writer Scott Glaysher stating: "Zoo lacks outright smash hits but it’s clear Russ’ focus for this sophomore offering was to make a project that was better-rounded than his debut – so in that case, mission accomplished."[2]
