Andy Kellman from AllMusic rated Kelly three and a half stars out of five and wrote: "Price collaborates extensively with Campbell (Mary Mary, Alicia Keys, Brandy), who comes up with some of his biggest-sounding productions in order to match her voice. The cathartic, closet-cleaning “Tired" and the following song, a club throwback based around War's "Galaxy" (with a touch of Michael Jackson's "Don't Stop 'Til You Get Enough)", are highlights, as is the relaxed "Speechless"—adroit synth-funk that recalls the early-‘80s productions of Leon Sylvers III and Prince. A handful of other producers, such as longtime Price associate Shep Crawford, contribute in smaller capacities [...] and the result sounds just like classic Mint Condition — a vibrant, almost live-sounding song filled with hooks that deserves to be one of the bigger adult R&B singles of 2011." [10]
"Tired" was nominated for Best Female R&B Vocal Performance at the 53rd Annual Grammy Awards. "Not My Daddy" was nominated for Best R&B Performance and Best R&B Song, while the album was nominated for Best R&B Album at the 54th Annual Grammy Awards.
The album debuted at number 36 on the US Billboard 200, number 9 on the US Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart and number 7 on the US Independent Albums chart on May 21, 2011. [11] [12] [13]
