The album has a score of 70 out of 100 from Metacritic based on 'generally favorable reviews'.[6]Vibe gave the album four stars out of five and stated that 'Despite its frustratingly uniform theme--coke--and Jeezy's inflexible, one-speed rasp, his sophomore effort, The Inspiration, suggests that last year's victories were no fluke.'[6]The A.V. Club gave it a B and stated that Young Jeezy 'spits snowman raps with rough-hewn charisma and unseemly enthusiasm.'[17]Chicago Tribune gave it three stars out of four and said that Jeezy 'continues to improve, crafting songs that are distinctive and memorable, even if he sticks to the well-worn topics of rims, clothes and clubbing.'[18]Blender gave it three-and-a-half stars and said that 'the smallest suggestions of personality make a charismatic impact.'[6]Spin gave the album seven out of ten and stated that 'This time around, it's as if the script has been reshot by Michael Bay--glossy and viscerally stimulating--and we're watching a coming attraction for a film that never starts.'[6]Billboard gave it a positive review and said that Jeezy's lyrics 'have matured past coke-slinging to the drug's effect on his life.'[6]The Phoenix gave it two-and-a-half stars out of four and said that 'Fortunately, getting the money isn’t all this follow-up to last year’s breakthrough Let’s Get It cares about, and the singles here are fire.'[19]
Other reviews are average or mixed: Okayplayer gave it an average review and stated, 'The Inspiration, an even darker work than the debut, finds the Snowman weaving paranoid street tales with eerie trunk-rattling beats. The album’s main downside is the repetitive nature of many of the tracks.'[20]Prefix Magazine gave it a score of six out of ten and called it 'Spottily effective gangster posturing.'[21] However, Stylus Magazine gave it a C− and said, 'The strange thing about The Inspiration is how it's posited as an alternative to the much-bullied 'conscious rap,' and yet, it's among the least fun albums released this year.'[22]The New York Times gave it a mixed review and said, 'Young Jeezy’s appeal was never his writing, but now words sometimes fail him.'[6]Hartford Courant also gave it a mixed review and said that 'Almost every dramatic synth swell, exploding snare and multi-tracked 'Yeaaahhhh' has been done better elsewhere.'[23]
