Critical reception
In his review for CCM Magazine , editor Andy Argyrakis found that "the veteran's silky voice comes across as smooth as ever, while the messages contained therein range from anticipating Christ’s coming into the world, spending quality time with family and spreading Yuletide cheer with the world at large. Add in a stylistic swath as wide as modern R&B, jazz, gospel or straight up pop, and A Kenny Lattimore Christmas is a sumptuous melting pot of the season’s sweetest sounds wrapped around its most touching messages." [3] Although he took issue with the song selection here and there, Derrick Dunn from Reviews & Dunn called the album a "good holiday project overall." [4] SoulTracks 's Justin Kantor noted: "From the cheery, rhythmic start of the album to this unaffected, peaceful final selection, A Kenny Lattimore Christmas is characterized by the qualities we all strive for during this special time of year: joy, excitement, and peace. The musicality with which he relates each emotion is what makes the album not just another holiday collection, but a choice seasonal set that will provide enjoyment and warmth for years to come." [5]
