Reception[edit]

Motolani Alake of Pulse Nigeria rated the album 6.0/10, stating that "Codename goes from trap heavy rap songs that showcase an angry, aggressive and vindictive Dremo to talking about sex and vanity on pop records to love songs".[3]

24hrsreport said that Codename Vol. 2 was considerably better than Codename Vol. 1 in terms of what is being addressed and his overall delivery, adding that the album could have done a little better in the content department. The album was rated 6.5 at the end.[4]

On a final note of a review by Notjustok, Emmanuel Esomnofu opined that "On Codename Vol. 2 Album, Dremo's process, and rapping (very often disguised as singing) is yet developing", adding that at the moment, he has delivered an enjoyable project.[5]
