AllMusic

AllMusic editor Alex Henderson compared the singer's performance on his debut album with Stevie Wonder and added: "One thing Patterson won't be accused of is favoring style over substance – when many of his contemporaries in the urban contemporary market were heavily into gimmickry, Patterson kept things honest and straightforward on a disc that isn't breathtaking, but is heartfelt and satisfying." Billboard found that Rahsaan Patterson "issues a cavalcade of infectious tunes sure to attract a broad consumer base Although the album taps vintage soul sounds, the overall feel remains grounded in contemporary rhythms."
