The album was a critical success, and was instrumental in Hall's winning of the 'Best Newcomer' award at the 1998 MOBO ceremony. The album was re-released on 2 November 1998 with new artwork and three bonus tracks. Paying tribute after Hall's death in 2006, disc jockey Ronnie Herel described Medicine 4 My Pain as "a landmark album for UK black music."
