Regardless of where he goes next, ONEPOINTFIVE stands as a worthy entry into the catalog of an artist who remains nothing but himself.

Pitchfork

Regardless of classification, ONEPOINTFIVE is a project about adjusting to a new class of rapper, how shifting tax brackets come with a new outlook on life. But in these songs of excess, Aminé’s feel-good music starts to lose some of the stained, lived-in quality that once made it so rich.

Highsnobiety

ONEPOINTFIVE is an overall solid work, offering more of the trunk-rattling, bitingly intelligent hip-hop that made him an instant standout during his rise to prominence as a member of XXL‘s 2017 Freshman Class.
