Hiphop DX
While few points on MGK’s General Admission have the ameliorative effects of either Zevon or Skynyrd, when you realize that MGK’s a survivor and still improving as an artist, it softens the egregious moments on the album and makes you wanting to hear what’s to come after this album.

General Admission is a much more experimental album, utilizing very singular beats that are not clouded and muffled together.

The Musical Blender
Machine Gun Kelly seriously delivered on “General Admission.” The rapper brought his A game and the record is his best body of work to date. The album showcases his abilities as an artist and is a testament to his originality in the genre, proving he is one of the best rappers in the game right now.

When MGK is at full pelt over textured and hard hitting instrumentals he shines, and it's impressive that he can match personal content with such an amped delivery. There's definitely moments on General Admission that show how skilled Kelly is, but there's a number of mis-steps too.

"General Admission" shows, it's Kelly's ability to maneuver within hip-hop's existing boundaries that makes him so dangerous and, ultimately, successful.

B-Sides
There is a reason that MGK has one of the strongest and most loyal fan bases in all of music, and that is because he puts his all into his projects and makes music that can touch the hearts of his fans and relate on a deeper level than most critics will ever be able to understand.

Rap'N'Blues
It brings everything you would expect from a complete MC: a balance of provocative and thoughtful tracks that are fun to listen to. Some of these tracks sound very similar, but are all products of complete honesty and show MGK as a person, artist and lyricist.

XXL
the takeaway from General Admission is that Kelly has finally made an album that can be taken seriously. This isn’t a caricature of him; instead it’s an honest, unfiltered portrayal of a long-troubled man and his struggle to make something of himself. If that isn’t hip-hop music worth rooting, for then I don’t know what is

Exclaim
Lyrically, General Admission is said to have MGK weighing in on anything "from bullying to the environment to political warfare," offering personal perspectives above the beat.
