Critical reception

The Washington Post wrote that "even when he updates the Elmore James classic 'It Hurts Me Too' with an arrangement that weds a funk beat to a wash of electronics, Mo' makes the transition from analog to digital age seem smooth, if not exactly welcome." The Chicago Tribune thought that the "acoustic, adult-contemporary blues style becomes more sophisticated with every album." OC Weekly deemed the album "a disappointment," calling it "more James Taylor than Skip James." The Record wrote that "this Los Angeles musician's urban folk-blues stew remains disarmingly soothing."

Track listing
