Critical reception

In a retrospective review for Guardian Life, Chiagoziem Onyekwena wrote that Get Squared was the album that "really turned the dancing duo into legitimate pop stars." He added that its reputation as a "classic" was "largely based on impact more than anything else" and that it "hasn't aged as well" as comparable albums.^[2] Pulse Nigerias Adeayo Adebiyi called Get Squared was a "hit-filled multi-genre album" that "rocketed [P-Square] to stardom." He praised its "bold interpretation of hip hop and R&B" and visual style that "perfectly communicated the superstardom they craved," and concluded that it was "a classic that shaped a generation" and "redefined what it means to be a Nigerian pop star."^[3]
