Reception

Allrovi wrote, "Combining the seriousness of a violent life in the ghetto with the juvenile antics of the Insane Clown Posse doesn't quite sound like a formula for success, but Detroit rapper and ICP affiliate Blaze somehow made it work".

Reissue

In 2006, the album was reissued under the title ''1 Less G in the Hood: Deluxe G Edition''. The reissue contained material from Blaze's self-titled EP, the 2001 album, and three additional bonus tracks. The reissue also deleted the introduction "The Eulogy", which was replaced by the '' Blaze Ya Dead Homie EP'' intro, and the songs "Str8 Outta Detroit", "Here I Am" and "Hatchet Execution", which remain unavailable due to the fact that the original version of ''1 Less G N Da Hood'' is out of print and these tracks did not appear on any other albums. ''1 Less G In The Hood: Deluxe G Edition'' peaked at #19 on the ''
