Allmusic[3]

In a mostly positive review, Allmusic writer, Jason Birchmeier says the album "finds him developing as an artist and experimenting with different styles without abandoning his reggaeton roots." He also went on to say that the album is a "solid effort filled with lots of good songs and a few excellent ones." He called "El Amor" the "most obvious stylistic experiment" and the "primary highlight" and said that it "showcases Tito's singing ability."[3]
