[1] This album features DMX, Chris Notez, Joel Madden, Twista and Jim Jones.

David Jeffries of AllMusic gave the album 4 out of 5 stars explaining "A Song for You might just be a tad more friendly than his cult would desire, but the idea that Bizzy is his own worst enemy gets tossed out the window after this roaring success.

Give him the right time and right place, and Bizzy, surprisingly enough, ends up being the right man for the job."

The year 2008 had already seen one Bizzy album appear by the time Song for You arrived, but this full-length breaks the pattern, becoming the first end-to-end stunner in the rapper's solo career."

Nathan S. of DJBooth.com gave the album 3.5 out of 5 turntables stating "Regardless of A Song For You's sometimes questionable musical choices, Bizzy seems determined to make his music, mainstream radio be damned (literally), and I have to respect him for that.
