Critical reception
Specifying in a two and a half star review by CCM Magazine, Matt Conner realizes, "the hooks aren't as refined and the depth less dynamic than a hip-hop album is allowed to be anymore"[1] Kevin Hoskins, indicating in a four and a half star review from Jesus Freak Hideout, recognizes, "The later parts of the album are mostly solid with just a few missteps, but nothing glaringly bad or skip-worthy."[3] Awarding the album four and a half stars at New Release Tuesday, Dwayne Lacy says, "The album is very southern but also holds strong lyricism, which is a combination that some believe is lacking in the south... These dudes are real."[5] Anthony Peronto, giving the album four stars for Indie Vision Music, writes, "But that doesn't mean there isn't universal appeal in Southern Lights: Overxposed."[4] Indicating in an eight out of ten review at Cross Rhythms, Alan Reid responds, "Collison Records have released some fine hip-hop albums and this earthy, hard-hitting missive is amongst their best."[2]
