The style of Two/Three differs from that album mainly in doubling its length and featuring guest vocal contributions from a number of rappers across fourteen of its twenty tracks.[1] These notably include MF DOOM, Jay Dee and several others associated with the Stones Throw record label, as well as A.G. of the Diggin' in the Crates Crew, Beans of Antipop Consortium and Cannibal Ox's Vast Aire.

Critical reception to the album was largely positive. AMG critic Andy Kellman describes it as "always moving, almost always stimulating, never stagnating", and in particular singles out "a nine-track patch, from "Jorgy" through "My Life"", which he says "involves an extraordinarily vast array of sounds and lyricists while sacrificing neither flow nor momentum".[1] Alan Ranta of Tiny Mix Tapes praised the album's "mean... [but] not for the sake of being mean" beats, and the cohesion between the music and guest rappers.[5]
Ryan Dombal, writing in Pitchfork Media, disagrees, praising Mullinix's "singular Timbaland-meets-the flipside of Low rumble" as "more focused and intricate than ever", but criticising many of the rappers as "wordy know-it-alls hell-bent on disrupting his groove". He praises Guilty Simpson's appearance as an example of "what Two/Three could be if the rappers were chosen based on entertainment value rather than how hard they're trying to save rap with big words".[6] See Prefix review, 9/10 : http://www.prefixmag.com/reviews/dabrye/twothree/15190/
