Critical reception

Ken Capobianco from The Boston Globe found that "all the tunes are artfully arranged and lean; only one exceeds four minutes. This works to his advantage, especially on "Just Me", a lovely ballad, and on the upbeat “Gimme Yo Love" [...] The best tracks avoid the oh-so-tasteful vibe that has marred some of his studio work." In her review for SoulTracks, editor Melody Charles wrote that "thanks to his longevity and versatility as a performer, Brian McKnight couldn’t be blamed if he decided to fall back a bit; but instead, the melismatic maestro puts that name and reputation on the line in an effort to include the newest McKnight generation, returning – with a pair of his musically-inclined sons in tow – for his eleventh CD, the dubiously-titled Just Me.."
