Critical reception[edit]
Entertainment Weekly wrote that Warren G "attempts to regulate his chart position with superstar cameos; but even Snoop Dogg, Eve, and Memphis Bleek can’t bring enough edge."[8]
AllMusic thought that "though I Want It All occasionally skirts the borders of hip-hop lite, it's chocked with quality mid-tempo productions and excellent rapping."[1]
