The EP has received mixed reviews. Some miss the high-energy Seyi Vibez of "Chance," the voice that soundtracked late-night adventures. 'Loseyi Professor' showcases a decidedly mellower production. Online murmurs suggest listener fatigue and a yearning for the "old Seyi Vibez."
Despite the mixed reception, 'Loseyi Professor' is projected to chart at No. 2 with 9-11 million on-demand streams (equivalent to 6,000-7,330 units).
This follows the success of 'Vibez Incorporation Mixtape, Vol. 1,' which debuted at No. 1 with 13.9 million streams (9,240 units), held the top spot for seven weeks, and remained in the top 10 for ten weeks. It currently boasts over 88 million streams and platinum certification (58,670+ units).
