***Dichotomy A*** is the first album in a two-part series of albums released in 2004 by the [Hip hop](/source/Hip_hop) group [GRITS](/source/GRITS). The second album is *[Dichotomy B](/source/Dichotomy_B)*. The song "Hittin' Curves" won the group's second [Dove Award](/source/Dove_Award) for "Rap/Hip Hop Recorded Song", awarded in 2005.[1]

## Critical reception

Deborah Evans Price, reviewing the album for [*Billboard* magazine](/source/Billboard_(magazine)), states, "Pardon the pun, but Christian hip-hop has frequently gotten a bad rap for being second rate. Grits demonstrates otherwise with this disc."[2] Awarding the album four stars from Jesus Freak Hideout, writes, "the album is different from what you might expect from Grits."[3] Tony Cummings, giving the album an eight out of ten for [Cross Rhythms](/source/Cross_Rhythms), says, "Well up to the guys' usual high standards."[4] Rating the album four stars at *[Christianity Today](/source/Christianity_Today)*, Andree Farias describes, "well-produced disc with semi-capable hooks."[5] Brenten Gilbert, indicating in a four star review from [Rapzilla](/source/Rapzilla), responds, "*Dichotamy A* will certainly turn a few heads, and turn a few preconceived notions on end."[6] Signaling in a three and a half star review at *The Phantom Tollbooth*, Len Nash replies, "*Dichotomy A* is stepping up and out of yesteryear".[7] [Josh McConnell](/source/Josh_McConnell), allocating four and a half stars to the album for *Renown Magazine*, reports, "Be sure to check this one out, because as they say in rap lingo… 'This junk is hot, dawg!'"[8]
