Reception

Markus Larsson of Aftonbladet stated, "Agnes is an obvious talent with a strong voice, but no one seems to know what to make out of it, not the record company, not the songwriters, not the producers, not even Agnes herself."[5]

Nina Sköldqvist of Helsingborgs Dagblad wrote that Stronger contains a variety of genres, including "a heavy ballad" like "(What Do I Do With) All This Love", "spirited R&B" like "Kick Back Relax" and the "MTV-like" "My Boy" and "Everybody".[2]
