Released through Mavin Records on 1 September 2016, the album features guest appearances from Patoranking, Falz, D'Prince, Vanessa Mdee, Kenny Blaq, and Sarkodie.
[5] Joey Akan of Pulse Nigeria described Spotlight as a "masterpiece" that combines personal storytelling with club-ready hits, showcasing his versatility in Afro-Caribbean, dancehall, and Afrobeat-inspired sounds.
He concluded, "If any talent deserves to benefit from the business and affectionate nurturing of Don Jazzy, it’s surely Reekado Banks," and rated the album 3.5/5.
While Reekado Banks showcased his versatility, the album failed to deliver a cohesive identity, with Okiche concluding that "Don Jazzy will always be fine but he doesn’t do this particular ‘child’ many favours here.
[6] Chiagoziem Onyekwena of Filterfree praised Spotlight as a debut showcasing Reekado Banks' versatility and personal storytelling, though he noted the album's lack of cohesion due to its many musical styles.
