Critical reception

AllMusic wrote, "Those who consider house music one-dimensional must give a serious listen to D-Mob's unpredictable and appropriately titled A Little Bit of This, A Little Bit of That."^[2] Bill Coleman from Billboard commented, "Coming off three No. 1 club hits, D-Mob finally unleashes its album debut [...] and it grooves. D-Mob brainchild, popular U.K. remixer Dancin' Danny D (aka Danny Poku) lays it out on the line and proves himself a more-than-able producer/songwriter/artist who has got quite a few tricks up his sleeve. Featuring a varied assemblage of performers, A Little Bit tackles a number of styles with ease and personality."^[7]
