The Gazette wrote that "side one finds pop-funk's most blatant copycat in his Prince mode."[7] The Chicago Tribune dismissed the album as "the same schtick he's been using since his Raydio days... Not only is it old, but it's been done with a lot more humor and style by Morris Day."[8]Knight Ridder labeled the album "both the smoothest and the slimiest soul-rock on the shelves today."[9]
