AllMusic's Stephen Thomas Erlewine praised the contributions from Mario Winans ("Got Me Going", "Co-Star"), Danja ("In My Bed") and Malay ("I'm the Reason") and the group's vocal performance throughout track listing feeling more at ease than "the stiff, labored Danity Kane," despite lacking a distinct "on-record personality," concluding that: "Day26 are indeed a vocal group for their time: they serve the production as much as the production serves them." [2] DJBooth's Nathan Slavik commended the Bad Boy team for allowing the group's performance to be "largely effects-free" and highlighted "Come In" and "Exclusive" as standouts but critiqued that their "still on the teenage side" when it comes to slow jams, concluding with: "[I]s this album truly the second coming of the Age of the Black Male Super Group? Not really, but it's close enough to make me hopeful, and that's going to have to be enough – for now." [3]
Day26 debuted at number one on the US Billboard 200, with first week sales of about 190,000 copies, [4] making it the third number one album from Making The Band winners. The album also debuted at the top of Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums and Top Comprehensive Albums charts. As of October 11, 2008, the album has re-entered at number 192 on the Billboard 200 in the US.
