Isabelia Herrera of Pitchfork described "Sensación del Bloque" as "a catchy track that weaves a jilted R&B falsetto with minor piano chords into an archetype of the emo ballads that would later dominate Latin trap". She also commented that "De la Ghetto and Randy did not cut corners and demonstrated their vocal and stylistic versatility without hesitation" and "Many emerging urban artists today owe part of their creative freedom to songs like 'Sensación del Bloque'".[3]
