Cyclone Wehner from The Daily Telegraph said "CDB enjoyed a string of '90s hits back when radio still marginalised "urban music" and even its fans favoured US acts. Now the founding quartet have conceived a '90s covers set, tapping into booming nostalgia. CDB's renditions of "R&B super jams" like Montell Jordan's "This Is How We Do It" and Boyz II Men's pop ballad "End of the Road" are faithful, yet impeccably delivered. Best is when CDB subtly contemporarise songs - adding dance beats to Bobby Brown's "Every Little Step". They even credibly remake "Right Here" by SWV."
