AllMusic[1]
The Village VoiceC+[2]

In a contemporary review for The Village Voice, music critic Robert Christgau gave the album a "C+" grade and panned the duo for how "bland" and lifeless they made their funk: "Pop professionalism reduced to a concept in which all annoyances and other signs of life are eliminated."[2] In a retrospective review, AllMusic's Stephen Cook credited Quincy Jones for producing a "seamless mix of pop and funk."[1]
