Välkommen till förorten was very well received among Swedish critics and is now considered a classic Swedish hip hop album. The Latin Kings were praised for their lyrics about the Swedish society from a suburban view, both by the general public and politicians. Patrik Ekelöf of the website Dagens Skiva called the album "a milestone in Swedish music history" and "a tough and heavy dub-influenced record that described the suburban life in a way we never had heard before".[1]
