"A-F-R-O returns with Trap Door 2, a sprawling 20-track sequel to last December’s Trap Door and another reminder of why he remains one of the most exciting lyricists in underground Hip Hop. Clocking in at over 75 minutes, the album is packed with intricate rhyme patterns, rapid-fire flows, dark humor, and theatrical storytelling, all backed by production handled entirely by A-F-R-O himself. “Barb Wire” with Blaq Poet and the stacked “Captain Now” are particular highlights. Trap Door 2 is unapologetically rooted in the fundamentals: sharp rhymes, inventive beats, scratches, and MCs going for broke. A dope follow-up to Trap Door, this is pure Hip Hop."
Ambrosia For Heads highlighted Trap Door 2 and A-F-R-O's production, naming "Feel da Beat," as a standout track.
