This album does not include one of the group's former frontmen, CeeLo Green, because he broke away to pursue his solo career. That left Khujo, T-Mo and Big Gipp to hold up the album. Released in 2004 under independent record label, Koch, after the critical failure of World Party, the crunk and pop experiment, which sold more than any of their other albums. The condensed Goodie Mob returns more to its socially conscious form of its first two releases, Soul Food and Still Standing. The song "Play Your Flutes" was released as the only single off the album.
One Monkey Don't Stop No Show was met with generally favourable reviews from music critics. At Metacritic, which assigns a normalised rating out of 100 to reviews from mainstream publications, the album received an average score of 61, based on nine reviews.
James Corne of RapReviews found "Goodie Mob sounds newly rejuvenated, almost vivified by the tremendous odds they faced coming back instead of impeded by it". AllMusic's David Jeffries wrote: "uneven, especially compared to their earlier records, and less ambitious than the "bring it on" misinterpretation of the title might make you think". Dorian Lynskey of The Guardian concluded: "on their own terms, at least, they deliver".
