David Jeffries from Allmusic gave a positive review of the album, and awarded it four stars out of five. On his review, he stated that "start with the outstanding title track for a taste and rest assured, the rest of the album is that good, and sometimes even better."^[2]

Jon Caramanica from The New York Times called Inténtalo "an album like none of the others" and commented that its music is "as nimble as ever, and as fleet, with chilling drums, winding samples, a robust sense of history and a keen urge to destroy and update it."^[3] The album earned the Lo Nuestro Award for Regional Mexican Album of the Year.^[4]
