Elevate was met with generally mixed reviews. Adam Lukach of RedEye said, "While the production sounds great and Chamillionaire shows he can still flash a little rhythm, the whole thing sounds circa his 2006 prime. It doesn't help that he reminds listeners about it. "Overnight" and "Hold Up" try to force him into the present, but Chamillionaire can't stop looking over his shoulder."
