Starr Status was met with mixed reviews from critics. JIVE Magazine praised the album, granting a 41⁄2 Star rating, stating "there shouldn’t be any argument over Kenn Starr’s status as one of thee best MCs in the game." AllHipHop.com writer Andrew Kameka commented "Starr Status remains strong thanks to his wit and exceptional delivery. His natural, almost effortless ability to wrap words around any beat placed before him makes this a memorable collection."[3]

RapReviews.com writer Andrew Matson gave the album a humble rating, saying "he needs to hold himself to a much higher standard if he wants to make good on his potential to be a clever, emotional, mature emcee with technical skills"..."Starr Status is, to me, a frustrating listen because of what it could have been."[4] Okayplayer.com writer Adam Roussell gave the album a moderate 3 Star rating, and criticized Starr Status for a lack of introspection, stating "Anyone who listens to Starr Status is likely to be entertained, but they are unlikely to be endeared to the artist. And that’s vital in this era where a star’s status is often gauged by the number of people who are compelled by the artist’s story."[5]
