He is supported beautifully by real live instruments and great vocal arrangements that give the songs a texture and movement that you just don’t hear much anymore.
"[5] SoulTracks editor L. Michael Gipson felt that "Richardson and co-producer Robert Perry have definitely crafted some solid Southern soul with a handful of urban AC songs that do indeed have more universal appeal.
"[6] Billboard noted that "there’s nothing forced or fake about Calvin Richardson‘s vocal talent; his voice naturally exudes soul.
The magazine found that despite some "hiccups" such as "repetitive and formulaic selections" as "You Possess My Body" and "Thug Livin'," [...] Richardson’s latest effort brings him another step closer to deservedly becoming one of America’s most wanted soul singers.
Some of the more urban AC offerings here are oriented for the summer dancefloor season [...] In sum, the pluses on America's Most Wanted outnumber the minuses and Richardson's profile should rise as a result.
