It was supported with singles "Blow Your Smoke" and "Perfect Day". "Blow Your Smoke" ended up being included as one of bonus tracks for Best Buy edition of the album. "Perfect Day" made it to number 67 on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs and number 66 on the R&B/Hip-Hop Airplay charts in the US.
Capo was met with generally favourable reviews from music critics. At Metacritic, which assigns a normalized rating out of 100 to reviews from mainstream publications, the album received an average score of 72, based on five reviews.[3]
AllMusic's David Jeffries found the album "scattered and scrappy, which for Jones is a comfortable landscape where oddball, sprawling, day-in-the-life numbers can sit next to stay-on-the-grind tracks, and Black Eyed Peas-parodies with no apologies required".[4] Amanda Bassa of HipHopDX wrote: "it maintains a musical energy intense enough to fuel a good party, yet throws in just enough of a dash of introspect to remind listeners that behind Jim Jones' exotic cars, empty bottles left behind at VIP tables, penchant for the drug business, and platoon of fly females, the man still has a heart".[5] Steve 'Flash' Juon of RapReviews wrote: "if Capo is any indication of where Jones is headed in 2011 it's the first time in a while I can say that I'm looking forward to his next album".[6]
The New York Times called the album chaotic, but often successful in spite of itself. They called his rhymes nimble but cluttered and said he is out-rapped by almost all of his guests here, including The Game on "Carton of Milk" and Lloyd Banks on "Take a Bow". They also stated his standout tracks are the lead single, "Perfect Day" and the Wiz Khalifa-esque "Heart Attack" stating that he is so at ease, so comfortable on those tracks, that he begins to sound skillful.[8]
