Jon Azpiri of AllMusic wrote, "Influenced equally by hip-hop and various forms of electronica, Zion I offers listeners a collage of new sounds mixed with ancient spiritualism." Del F. Cowie of Exclaim! called it "a truly invigorating affair."

In 2015, HipHopDX included it on the "30 Best Underground Hip Hop Albums Since 2000" list.
