Critical reception

"Talk to Me" garnered generally negative reviews from music critics. Jon O'Brien from AllMusic found the ballad schmaltzy and wrote that it is the "type of gloopy sub-Disney ballad you'd have expected to hear on Brandy's late-'90s Cinderella remake."[2] Chuck Campbell from the Scripps Howard News Service, writing for The Telegraph Encore, declared "Talk to Me" a "generic slow song that degenerates into a wail-off among the three singers."[3]
