CRITIC REVIEWS

PopMatters

On Dreams Worth More Than Money savvy potential hits are overshadowed by tracks with chips on their shoulders, made for a guy who sounds like he leaves blood on the mic.

80
AllMusic
In the end, the street-worthy effort seems more influenced by Maybach Music than Minaj, as it forsakes the paparazzi and gossip pages for the better and continues on the path first laid out on the man's mixtapes.

AllHipHop
Touching on the subjects of family, the nights spent in jail/streets and his new exclusive relationship show the maturity in Meek Mill.

Exclaim!

Dreams Worth More Than Money overflows with sonic effervescence, drawing you into the snake pit that is the mainstream hip-hop industry, with all the opulent trappings therein.

XXL

All the way through, Dreams Worth More Than Money feels fresh and, more importantly, refreshing.

75
Consequence of Sound

He’s always been a reliably ferocious street rapper. DWMTM establishes him as that and something else: an artist with the ambition to go big and the finesse to stick his landing.

Pitchfork

Dreams Worth Than More Money takes a few more risks than Meek Mill's debut. With high-profile guest spots from Future, Drake, Nicki Minaj, and others, it has more breathing room and clears space for Meek Mill's unrelenting intensity. It also reinforces the impression that a brief blast is the best way to experience Meek.

HipHopDX
An exciting, yet unbalanced offering, it offers a glimpse of an artist slowly improving his craft, with possibly the best being yet to come.

Complex

If the shaky performance of his debut was a wipeout—to mix a metaphor—Dreams Worth More Than Money sticks the landing, sustaining over its running time without stumbling and occasionally providing some thrilling moments.

Billboard

Dreams Worth More Than Money is surprisingly focused, presenting an uncomfortably lucid, non-pensive character study detailing the underside of the American Dream.

I really love the energy and confidence Meek Mill brings to his tracks. "Lord Knows" is one of the hardest rap songs ever made. The features bring a lot to the album as well.

Top 5 Tracks:
1. Lord Knows
2. I Got the Juice
3. R.I.C.O.
4. Pullin Up
5. Jump Out the Face

Very hit or miss. Meek can really make some great tracks, but some of his rapping opens him up to weak moments and really corny tracks taking down the quality of the album experience. As singles though, a lot of these records hold much better than I thought initially.
