Art Official Intelligence: Mosaic Thump generally received overall positive reviews from critics. James Poletti of Yahoo! Music gave the album an eight out of ten star review. 'In keeping with the current vogue for hip hop albums with more guests than Letterman, over 50 per cent of this album features appearances from everyone from Redman to Chaka Khan', which he said may or may not have something to do with finding a unique voice in hip hop. 'The really refreshing change with De La Soul is not simply their lack of bullshit but their proud rejection of hip-hop's nihilism.'^[11] Michael Goldberg of Neumu gave the album the same eight out of ten star review and simply said that the number of guest stars in the album, 'keeps things lively'. 'The grooves are righteous and the vibe is right' Goldberg stated.^[6]
