The album drew generally favorable reviews from critics, who praised Wright's vocals, songwriting, and production. The album debuted at number 56 on the Billboard 200 and peaked within the top 20 of the Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart, although it received limited promotion from MCA, which would be absorbed by Geffen Records the following year. The album also spawned three singles: "Ain't Nobody Playin'", "I Can't Wait", and "The What If's". The latter was promoted by a music video inspired by D'Angelo's "Untitled (How Does It Feel)" and reached number 24 on the Adult R&B Songs chart.
