Critical reception
Thomas Quinlan of Exclaim! said, "While not your typical hip-hop album, fans open to experimentation with different genres will find Cannonball!!! a rewarding, if eclectic, half-hour-plus of music." Brett Uddenberg of URB called it Bleubird's "most focused and well-rounded" work to date.{{cite web|url=http://www.urb.com/2012/01/19/urb-premiere-bleubird-ceschi-time-4real/|title=URB Premiere: Bleubird + Ceschi Time 4real (MP3)|work=URB|first=Brett|last=Uddenberg|date=January 19, 2012|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120416063508/http://www.urb.com/2012/01/19/urb-premiere-bleubird-ceschi-time-4real/|archive-date=April 16, 2012|access-date=May 24, 2017}}
